Inscriptions seeded one per case, I’d think they would be good buys. $200 (price of a box) for a Viserys inscription seems like a good buy to me.

Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good about it now. Haven't seen another one since. Definitely a keeper for sure. Still wondering what the hell happened to the Matt Smith and Emma D inscriptions that were at the Philly show.

I’m sure coming out in S2/3/4.

Most of the inscriptions are pretty bland IMO. Doesn’t feel like as many memorable lines as in GoT.

A few of my boxes already arrived. Picked up another few already. Also hit BINs on a few inscriptions. Love this product.

I wonder if people are sitting on product thinking the value will skyrocket like GOT Season 1. But I just don't see it.

Depends on the growth of the key actors in the show that signed for this release. GOTS1 had Emilia Clarke who grew to become a Hollywood darling over a decade. Then you have Jason Momoa, Lena Headey and Kit Harrington that also did well outside GOT. Finally yoiu had the actors that grew on the fans of the show over the course of their charcater arc like Maisie Williams. Essentially caught fire in a bottle. So I would agree, it'll be difficult but not impossible particularly to see how Milly Alcock is received on-screen as Supergirl in the new DCU.

1x Milly auto
1x D'arcy auto
1x Eve Best relic auto

Since when have they been serializing cards? This one is numbered 55/55?

The Artifex Metal cards in GoT were always serial-numbered on the back (each out of 25).

The back says "costume material" rather than the costumes, which means it might have come from the actual actor worn costume, or imo much more likely spare leftover material.

Great break. Working on mine now. For the price point I think there is great value here. I tried to get more from my dist today but they were sold out

*also 750 cases feels like a smaller print run..

That would make sense it came from spare leftover material and not from the actual costumes worn... (also makes it less cool)

imo, prob $5-$10. There are a few numbered relics (the doubles and triple), but otherwise is just an insert set. It will be an easy and relatively cheap set to complete if you like it.

Cryptozoic costume cards go for significantly more than this. But I'm unsure if they are actual costumes or like these behind the scenes ones. Either way the better characters won't be going for $5-10

Agreed with Tim. Better characters prob hold at 25-30 with the lesser ones getting down to $10 or so.

I ripped one case last night -
Daemon Metal Card /25
Daemon Relic /50
Huy Troung Otto Hightower Sketch
Paddy Auto Relic
Paddy Auto
Milly Auto
Emma D’Arcy Bordered Auto

I personally think it’s a little high.
On ebay there are cases in the 1900 range, that’s a little easier to stomach
If I can pick up some more cases in the 1600-1700 range, I absolutely will, but not sure we will see them get that low again

I agree If they would be in the $125 range-probably be sold out Im glad I didnt buy any at $200
