Ultraverse cards

Post by depluto »

There was a little four card set that you could send away for, but I can't remember much about them. It was Arena, Gecko, Guise and Markie. I have two sets of those cards with foil, one without (I think the ones without foil are harder to find).

Anybody remember some more details on these?

Also, the embossed, signed cards from Series 2 cards ... does anyone have a box so they can tell me what the ratio was for pulling those? It was something obscenely hard, like 1 for every 200 boxes.

The Redemption Set also came in uncut sheets of 4 cards of the foil and non-foil versions. As far as the Signature cards in Series II no pull number given just "Randomly Inserted"

They used to have ads in the books for those redemption sets, right?

The 'official list' for the autographed/embossed 7 card set is inaccurate...

I have this set with card numbers:

7, 9, 11, 12, 16, 20, and 21

The official list has :

7, 8, 11, 12, 16, 20, and 21

Card 9 is out of place for number 8 but still has James Hudnall as the autographed... Ok ok so it must be a mistake :oops: BUT

On The Ultraverse Master Series, I have a signed/embossed card, uhhh and looking at the list and the signatue, it looks like Dave Doorman. Huh, one out of 2400.... Well I can now go back to my 'error set'.

I've seen two of those Dorman original paintings for the Master Series. One guy wanted $700, the other $300. They're not real big, like 6x8.

Very nice drawing of Lord Pumpkin drawn against a castle wall.

On the back of the comics - not sure which issues - you xeroxed the coupon as each one came with a serial number so you wouldn't have to cut out the coupon. For how ever many coupons you sent in determined which level of redemption you got.

My first reaction was "Cool!" But it kinda looks like crap.

I just checked a box, there is a little note on the side in small print that says there are 1 in every 1,300 packs (the art cards are 1 in every 47,000 packs!). So I was a little off, but still ... one in every 36 boxes is pretty freaking rare.

So ...

Figuring that there are 90 cards overall, that makes 90 art cards. 1 in every 47,000 packs means there are 4,230,000 packs. Divided by 36 packs means 117,500 boxes. If the signed cards are one in every 36 boxes, that means there are 3,264 of them. Seven different, so there are 466 of each. That seems like a weird number and I'm sure my numbers are a little off but it feels safe to say there are about 500 of each. More than I thought, though.

:hm:

Does anybody have any idea what issues these were contained in?
