I ordered series one the other day, when did they stop having individual packets of cards in the sealed boxes? I was pleased with the cards but disappointed not to open the packets, that's the fun bit! I just got a base set, 2 autographs and one sketch card.

I wonder how many there will be willing to buy one box for £54,99.
Moreover, the company refers that the most popular deal is worth as £179,99 (I see that there are three boxes, including autographed cards, and Limited edition - but many of these cards are actually not exclusive, as many of the guest actors have already signed autographs for other boxes earlier). :shock:
PRICEY, indeed....has anyone within our forum, get a promo copy to review? or at least purchase one ? I would be interested in reading a review on this

Wonderful design, although I don't think the one slightly blurry with Tara was a good choice for.

This set does look great. Haven't bought any of these card sets for years though.

I have to admit I was somewhat confused by Steed and Tara's attire in the rocketship the first time I watched Bizarre. For a second I thought they were actually wedding outfits, but Mother's subsequent concerns about them being un-chaperoned completely dispelled that notion! Tara's dress was certainly 'bizarre'!

looking back at these photos...I still can't get over Tara on the hood, or ' bonnet ' of what appears to be a '1965 FORD MUSTANG' her lounging on an American car, does seem to be ' bizarre' as well.....lol
