And I will start.
I picked up two tins.

1. Dale Sr. Tin - Oversized card #3

2. Dale Jr. Tin - Oversized card #2

Since its a complete 33 card set in each tin I did not remove the wraping on my sets. I will end up putting them in my set boxes like they are. The cards do look nice but I like that they are wraped up. I also like the size and covers on the Tins, seem smaller than some of the other tins they have done in the past. I will end up saving the two tins I received too. I will look for the other oversized cards to complete the sets. I think for the price I got the tins for it was worth it. Nice little set....

I recieved one of the Dale Jr tins.

I recieved card 1of 3 from Jr (I'll add to our trade Rick so mark this one off)

I really liked the set. The card stock is thin like the Optima but thats ok because mine will go into the 9 card sheets and into a binder with my other Dale Jr tin sets. The looks of both set and oversize card I think is great. Our price I think was a good bargin and th eretail price is normal. Great little set give it 4 1/2 stars.

I got four of the Dale Sr Tins in hopes of getting the three different "Jumbos"
I opened the first three and was tickled to get all three right off the bat!

The 33 card set has some real nice pictures. They went in 9 pocket pages and into my hubby's Dale Earnhardt book.

I'm very pleased with the tin, set & jumbos. I think we go a real good deal on these. I agree with the 4 1/2 stars

I got one of the Jeff Gordon tins and received Jumbo card #2. I was debating about keeping the cards in the wrapped package or opening them. My curiousity got the best of me and I had to see what they all looked like. I put them back in the tin, and have it sitting on one of my display shelves. Nice tin, loved the graphics. Like Mike mentioned, the cards are thin, didn't care for that, but everything else was nice. Overall great purchase, 4*'s from me :thumb:

I was suprised to find out that the full case my buddy bought was actually for ME! :becky:

So... I busted 'most' of the case. My buddy kept one 33 card base set from each driver (Dale Sr & Jr, J Gordon). He didn't want any of the oversize cards so I got them all!!!

I opened all 4 of the Dale Sr tins and was only slightly disappointed. I pulled one #2 card and three #1 cards. Kinda hard to make two sets with those odds, lol.

I pulled cards #1,2 & 3 for both Dale Jr & Jeff Gordon. SO I didn't open the fourth tin for each. Figured I'd just sell them and save that money towards a future product since Rich didn't want them. :thumb:

Over all... I liked the set, but kinda wished there were 4 of each of the oversized cards. The pages for the binder holds four cards each, LOL!!!

Nice set over all... I'd give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars!!! Only reason I shorted half a star... wish the oversixe cards was just a little more "special" with some special foil or something.

Well I finally opened all 6 of my tins (3 Sr. and 3 Jr.) and got doubles for both drivers.

Dale Sr.

#1, #3 x2

Dale Jr.

#1, #2 x2

Nice set, but as Les said it would have been nice if they had done something special with the oversize cards. 4/5 stars.
