Nope… just the ones that have eye appeal. Basically creatures and armored characters… none of the humans.

Too bad everyone ditched ePack for the Topps Marvel, SpongeBob, and Dune stuff. This Halo set is pretty cool. I think it would have done better if Marvel packs were still in the shop… Marvel brought more eyes to the ePack website and a rising tide lifts all boats!

At any rate, I love collecting this Halo set and happy to get my first PSA 9 back.



And also got this cool one back (matches my printing plate set that I posted earlier)…

They look so good in PSA slabs, and awesome plate booklet.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the booklet?

$584 but it was 100% from COMC credit from sales. No cash out of pocket. Playing with Monopoly money (COMC credit) always nets me some cool stuff! I love selling and buying (and slabbing) on COMC.

That's actually a great price, considering how much you have to spend to meet that plate achievement on e-pack.

I haven't tried the slabbing on COMC. how's the PSA return time through them?

Turnaround time is backlogged now. You are looking at first or second week of January through COMC if you sub today at cheapest tier.

This is my favorite set that has come out in years. The art is absolutely phenomenal. The augmented Gold and the metal cards are beautiful and in my opinion, will be highly collectible sooner than later.

It is a beautiful set… I agree!

Let’s try not to overdue the accolades yet though… so we can still pick up stuff relatively cheaply!

Got another Metal slab back…



And Hardlight looks a lot different in the slab scan than the original raw COMC scan.

Here’s hoping ePack includes this set in its Black Friday sales! It’s my favorite set that’s left in the ePack store at the moment.

This is the best set on ePack since Braber forgot to submit the paperwork for UD to renew the Marvel license.

I love these metals but tough to get better than PSA 8 on them…

Love the metals! I've been buying them on eBay/COMC.

Noticed they seem to be drying up a bit & going up in price. Well some of the more in-demand characters.
E-pack needs a sale! lol

Hopefully they throw us a bone during the 12 days of Christmas sale and offer us up a 25% off but I’m not holding my breath.

This one came back to my COMC account from PSA ungraded. I’ve never held this card in hand so not sure what the issue would be as I have slabbed a couple dozen Metals so far. Maybe it was miscut? Anyone else have any issues when they tried to slab these?

Another one just came back ungraded. Not sure what’s up with these that PSA wouldn’t grade.
