Yup! I had pretty solid case break overall. Details are on break page. I've done a TON of IW on e-Pack. I'm excited for Endgame on there, but not sure if I'll go as deep as I did with IW. TBD...

You weren't exaggerating!

That Brolin auto...

Totally missed this in the checklist release...the only actor/actress in the set that has either a One-Shot or Shadowbox auto is Elizabeth Olsen:



Not sure why that would be since it's a sticker... Still, nice looking card/auto.

And if I did the numbers right, this is actually less rare than the One-Shot SSPs...

Olsen’s Shadowbox auto appears to be on card though. I suspect we may see more shadowbox autos in the set though as epack achievements.

If the numbers are accurate, the answer is yes. And no.

There will be a total of roughly 35 of each One Shot sp, so yes, it's less rare than any individual of the 6, but much rarer than an sp in general.

Was only referencing the One-Shot SPs (SB-15 to SB-20) in my post at 35 a pop.

Even the next-rarest SP--the Shadowbox SPs--jumps past to 85 each.

Super-bummed they made the Iron Man/RDJ One-Shot an SP...don't see myself dropping the cash even though I love the card...

A few more pairs have shown up. At the time of this posting both of these were active:

Age of Ultron #73 - Damn, That's a Nice Cap Profile Shot

Age of Ultron #73 - Language!

And the sellers kindly shared photos of the backs. Neither of these cards are from the 2017 Wal-Mart Cinematic Anniversary set.

There were also two Ant-Man #59 1/1 buybacks up as well, but couldn't get images of both backs.

Upper Deck has responded to my inquiry and is looking into it with their production team. Said they'll get back to me when they have more info.

Cudos to them for the response; honestly wasn't sure I was going to hear back.

I implore anyone on these boards, if you have a favorite LCS do curbside business with them or help out in any way you can. Bunch of small businesses have now closed as of yesterday due to not making rent. If you appreciate someone's shop, NOW is the time to purchase.

Having mentioned this, I did just this. I know most times you can get items a bit cheaper online but sometimes not. There are other perks to LCS's that you'll never be able to get online. Anyways I helped out our LCS with buying some stuff I didn't plan on opening yesterday. 2x boxes of Punisher, and 1x Star Trek box & 1x GOT box. And 3x Avengers boxes. Anyways hit this and am still on cloud 9. I know it's not the most popular card around here but the sales are crazy high on it.

Been mostly just doing basketball but this was a fun break.

Not sure if any one is still tracking this but I did another Avengers Endgame case: Case# 2 https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1385377 and Case #1 https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365284 . I never really shared images of the buybacks but now have reason too. I spent the evening sorting and organizing cards and thought I'd see if any duplicates of my buybacks have shown up. Yup! I think I will be adding this to my e-mail now to UD. I guess my buyback isn't a true 1 of 1. Case #2 had two buybacks. Here is an eBay listing matching on my buybacks:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2020-Marvel...1/233587045994

The card on eBay is obviously different, stamps are in different locations and card is cut/printed differently, so I suspect the eBay one is possibly a retail base like we saw before. Not sure though...

Here are my buyback images:




A lot of people were shocked to see Punisher released before Endgame on e-Pack. I'm curious now if its because UD is working this 1 of 1 buyback issue or something else.

Anyone heard back from UD on what is up with the buybacks or seen a checklist to explain the duplicates?

i assume the distributors have a better deal on the bigger marvel releases with upper deck than the low end tv shows. thats why the gap is longer.

Congrats! Probably my favorite card I've seen in the set. LOL I had to grab 4 to try, 2 at a time, first batch nothing of note, second batch had a red glow- Captain Marvel Acetate, which is apparently 1:75 odds. Neat looking card.

Acetate sounds like a nice one. Can't see myself buying much of this at retail price. Will have to wait for a 50% off sale and grab some on the COMC race to the bottom.

Yep, I doubt I'd grab more, just a pricy one to rip. The acetate does look pretty nice. If anyone wants to get rid of any base, gonna try to put together a set, all bases FT, Zeldafan

I'm assuming buybacks from older MCU base sets were physical packs only?
Epack checklist only has buybacks for Infinity War & Age of Ultron inserts and the Olsen & Atwell Autograph buybacks

Rewind Buybacks (#'d to 1) (nonauto) are listed in the Pack odds. Looks like some are from Age of Ultron set as well.

Do they usually limit the achievements to a certain amount? Really like the base and insert achievements so gonna try for those, but wasn't sure if they usually run out or if I have time.

If they don't come with an amount listed, they supposedly print enough of them to fulfill all achievements.

Did you at least pull one of the other guaranteed hits (metal, diamond or shadowbox)?
