Things happen I guess. I've even talked to UDMatt about a couple things including the duals and he's been more than kind and expressed his hope at certain autos but of course some things fall through. Having the same autos of the big guys is ok but of course we want new autos to chase. Since I wont be collecting any more sets after Endgame I was hoping for more and looking forward to some cool dual autos but unfortunately they got dropped. Maybe the next set will be better.

I always enjoy the rumors and tin foil hat theories a little. I don't take them serious, but they can be entertaining. The Endgame/CM checklist is nice and swaps out some frequent signers like Karen Gillan, Cobie Smulders and Dave Bautista. I really thought/hoped UD would have gotten Brie Larson at a recent Con, but it seems not. This logically makes sense to combine Endgame/CM.

In order of excitement, I'm happy to see Sebastian Stan, Hiroyuki Sanada, and John Slattery. Ignoring 'value' these are must haves for me to add to the PC. I"m newer collector so never had chance at pulling a Sebastian auto since I started collecting. Atwell is another nice one, but did snag one in a trade on ePack for Agent carter.

There are bunch signers I wish UD would have gotten, but it is what it is. Hiddleston, Pratt, Cumberbatch would have been nice adds(one or all).

I hope the Endgame base set extends similar design of IW with acetate. Also, I wish there was a Stan Lee cameo insert set of all movies he did(could be license issue prevents), but I think would have been excellent insert set to remember him by.

@UpperdeckMatt ... any chance we will see preview of buybacks, autos, inserts, and base once the product releases?

I'll probably buy some LHS but wait for ePack to decide if I'm going all in on set.

What does everyone think... buybacks /1 on-card or stickers autos?

I have a feeling the checklist isn't complete based on that in the description at the top it states dual autographs are included in the set

@UpperDeckMatt Any chance of UD making an MCU set with the classic impel and skybox styles of the early 90s?

The custom cards in this thread look great.

Who knows when this is releasing anymore.... BO was showing April 1st, but What a farce to have such a lack of information on a product given the current climate. Seriously considering cancelling my multiple master case orders at this point.

i don't understand why this is such a farce. Things are changing hourly and nobody knows when things will shut down in every industry. Delivery service may stop. Factories may stop producing/packing cards. Millions of people are losing their jobs. There are lots of factors and nobody has answers. Getting a product out on time seems to be the least important thing in life right now.

The set was announced in September 2019 with a release date of January 2020. The delays have been happening since before the outbreak.

This is a lot of stuff to ship, I'd like to think that delivery companies right now are focusing on food and medical related items right now.

And while I'm sure the UPS and FedEx's of the world who would be shipping these, may not normally do that stuff, they may be lending their trucks and manpower to help with that stuff right now and cause things like this to be delayed.

If that's the reason, I don't think anyone can really be upset about it.

While I agree there are more important things going on right now, they need to at least take 5 minutes and send out an email or post on their site that's its delayed yet again or shipping or what. Im guessing it is not shipping any time soon.

He didn't have anything to do with the UD Twitter accounts, did he?

Plus UD is being hardheaded and not allowing BM shops to sell boxes online during the shutdown, still only allowing Steel City and Dave and Adams sell boxes online.

Thanks for the kind thoughts guys. I've gotten a few messages from people here and I do appreciate it. Corona sucks. This will most likely be my last post here as I will be losing access to this account. But you guys will probably see my finger prints on Marvel products over the next year or two. It was great getting to know you all. I'm on twitter for the time being @upperdeckmatt if anyone wants to keep in touch.

I'm so sorry, Matt. It's terrible news! It's been great working with you over the past few years; I don't have a Twitter account, so take care.

Oh Matt that's awful, I'm so sorry

About the set - as a Bucky collector I'm excited to see so many cards after very few in the last few sets! Hopefully I can trade my Lizzie IW auto for a Seb from this set

Messaged UD on Facebook and they state this is still set to release next week. Should be interesting to see if it does. Also, would love to see photos of the cards soon too.

So sorry to hear that UpperDeckMatt. Wish you the best.

Upper Deck did send out an email yesterday to distributors and shop saying this product was a go for the first of April. Other products will be delayed. Also, I am sorry Matt to hear about your situation. As a shop my main problem with UD was the lack of communication but your voice was a welcomed adddition to the forum that I would always pass along to my customers. thank you sir!

God, how hard is it for UD To design nice autograph cards? The "Legends Never Die" header is so corny. At least use the tagline from the poster if you feel the need, "Avenge The Fallen." This kills me wanting any of these.

Also the choice of photos aren't very good in my opinion. Chris Evans should have been him holding Mjolnir. Such a bummer.
