Just about to start busting my first box of this product. Very much looking forward to this one.
Big thanks to Jen (Tangent) for organising the box for me


Busted another box, look at later posts for scans!!

6 packs in, pulled a Power Pack insert. Been a while since I have seen/ heard of them. Cool card though!

The base cards are great. Got a couple of the base parrallels so far too.

Half way through (12 packs)

Got a couple of 'most wanted' cards. An awesome looking 'inhumans' card from the same insert set as the 'power pack' card.
Got a wiggle card in the last pack, the clearest looking one I have ever seen..... each picture is clear, without a shadow of the other picture being visable.
Looking forward to getting more of these (2 more boxes on the way )

Sketch card!!! Wolverine/Mystique.

Artist Alex Magno. Pretty cool sketch and I am pleased, as I am a big fan of his.

Will post scans when I finish busting the rest of the box.

Great sketch, he's done a great job with facial expressions. Interesting, I thought my Magno pull was from one of the loose boxes left over from the group buy which means there were two Magnos in the same case.

Re: Marvel Heroes & Villains box break 9/11/10

I don't like how they have forced the artists to have 2 character minimum in the sketches. Some of them don't seem to flow.

Re: Marvel Heroes & Villains box break 9/11/10

I kind of agree. Some artists have drawn 2 characters awkwardly taking up space on the cards, where as others have totally risen to the occasion and have 2 characters locked in combat that just looks awesome!!

Very nice sketch! So tempted to bust one box of these

 

[siegeandspike]

Busted another box of these last week. Was lazy, but finally did the scans!

The sketch is by Michael Glover. I like his work and had been watching some of his cards on Ebay, so was happy with the pull.

Inserts:

(plus I got another of the Ms Marvel wiggle cards - for trade!)

Sketch:

I now have a spare base set. PM me if you are looking to purchase one!

Great sketch of Daredevil & Kingpin

Great break CJ!

So, I took advantage of the good value AUD and seller desire to clear Marvel before Dangerous Divas release this week. I bought a case and this is the best break I had for this series. Sketches are:

Mapa / Magno / Prince
Nonato / Fontanez / Davis

Acar / Monces / Cox
Jackman / Kohse / Moreno

 

[Dangerskillz]

some quaity cards...i like the Mapa 'galactus vs mr fantastic + the Magno

The Acar and Cox Spidey vs. Goblin are great for anybody who might collect those characters.

sweet dark phoenix, 2 nice spidey vs goblins

great break

It's cases like this that make me consider actually collecting Marvel. I wish they'd do DC cards in the same style. I think the art is great, but I have no connection to the characters (unlike DC and Star Wars) and most of them I don't even recognise. I have kept or picked up some Marvel sketches that have original X-Men or Avengers or Fantastic Four teams because they're the ones I remember reading as a kid. I also have a couple of Daredevil sketches for the same reason.
