Am I the only one checking Canadian postal transit daily in anticipation?? 

Our sets arrived today!  They are great.  I'm so impressed by the work put into this project.  Thanks a lot guys!

You are not alone. Mine are still in Toronto sadly.

Just a heads up people - I'm doing a Post Office run tomorrow. After that it won't be until the middle of next week.

If you have your payment info, get it to me before tomorrow and I'll make sure the package goes out.

Cheers!

My cards came in the mail today.... SO MUCH FUN to crack those stacks and go through them.  Now to put them in plastic sleeves and 3 ring binders.... i mean build decks

No fair! Everyone is getting their sets but me.    Nice to hear unanimous praise though from those who have received them.

Hello all,

Jack and I have been talking about printing up some sets of 'The Marvels' on Proper Card Stock for a while now, but we've found a printer who's willing to do it. The quote was a reasonable estimate, so we're moving forward.

What we'd like to know is - are any of you interested in joining in on this venture? The more sets we order, the cheaper it will be.  Right now it's looking like $12 per set of 90(ish) if we order 36 sets.

The plan is to produce all the cards from the Marvels, plus the Any Power teamwork. Certain will be produced in multiples with each set (IE: Silver Sable's teammate avoid).

Give us an idea of how many we need, and we'll get the ball rolling.

To go from this idea to perfectly made cards is incredible! My compliments to everybody involved. Looking at football & sorting thru new cards...doesnt get much better! Which card is not playable?  Now when are you starting on Ultimate Evil!? 

Come on guys, this isn't fair... I just missed the mark by a month!  Everyone is opening Marvels sets and have pretty new cards to build decks.  Just looking at the setlist gets me wanting to build some new decks, plus the fact that there's a community of people alive and currently playing the game.  I've talked to a few friends, and I've got them getting their collections out to play some OP.  There's about five guys here in my town... I could probably make an order for 5+ sets just by myself!  Is there no way AT ALL that you could do a second printing???  Or maybe someone ordered more than one and would be willing to part with a set.  Or maybe someone can tell me how to get my own set printed... seriously, I could almost cry at just how close I was to being in on this project.  Can anyone offer me comfort???

And new players that come into the game would love to have a set I'm sure... I have enough OP to make some decent collections for deckbuilding, minus ultra rare stuff.  I have tons of characters, avoids, power cards, doubleshots, teamworks, you name it.  Someone will want a set of Marvels in the future!  A second run would be a good opportunity to have them on hand for the future and longevity of the game!  HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!

The only comfort I can offer you, trooper, is that Jack and BBH aren't the only people who have worked on creating Marvels sets for others. Overpower Legion over at Facebook is also printing out his own sets and I've seen him post that he's offering them to others free of charge. You might want to check that out if indeed there won't be a second run with the current Marvels sets currently being shipped out.

Sorry man, no second run on this. As it stands now, a small, finite run for no profit catered to a specific niche group keeps us within the conditions of 'fair use,' regarding use of the intellectual property. But if we started taking fresh orders and doing re runs of this, we'd really be pushing it.

That being said, I have had a few orders shift along the way, and with a few people left to contact me more orders may be changed or cancelled. So PM me your info, and I'll contact you if a set becomes available.

Got my set in the mail today.  They look fantastic!  Never would have imagined I'd be looking at a new set of OP cards, let alone ones this professionally done.  This was definitely a great treat for everyone, but as someone who has been with the game since the beginning in 95 it feels like the last chapter in OP's history has finally gotten the ending it deserves.  Thanks again to everyone that worked on these to make this set possible!

Don't cancel mine :/

Not happening, don't worry.

I only cancel the orders based on the wishes of the person who ordered in the first place.

No fair! Every time I come in here another person has received their set.    The waiting is killing me. LOL
