One thing that impressed me about this set apart from the artwork is how well it was designed. most of the subsets such as portraits, costume design and cartoons were checklisted out so they would all be on the same page. Very thoughtful of the product designer on that one, I've seen a lot of sets that look really awkward in pages. This one looks great. I don't have complete sets of the inserts, but here's a page worth:
The etched foil set comes together to make a puzzle of the one ring. I'm still missing three but you can kind of see where it's going. The ghostly foil cards ended up scanning much better than expected.
I've got enough complete non-sports set to post one a week for a couple months at least. Any requests for next week? Monsters, movies, ponies?

Pretty set. I have never understood 10 card subsets when card pages have 9 slots.
awesome.
I'll take movies for $200 please Alex.
Good stuff. I thought the Hobbit was really well done. There are some interesting differences from the book, though - they went more with the tone from LOTR than the lighter tone that Tolkien's book actually had. Overall, great movie though - and cool how they filled in some gaps that aren't there for the book.
Very cool.
Slopton? Don't you mean a whole Hobbiton? Ba dum tish!
