i sent mine today using express post, should be there tomorrow by noon

but i have a minor problem......







Ebay sellers are slow at shipping and i still need to send two more cards lol. but those 2 are just extras, i sent all the requirments. so ill just send another package once they get here.

[reoddai]

So here are the cards. If I remember correctly I asked for a bunch of goalies (probably Fuhr, Turco, Hextall, Brodeur, Roy, Vezina), or Vintage Habs.

VERY happy with everything in the package. Not all PC, but everything is something I would have wanted.

The Bonuses

[reoddai]

And NOW for the stars:

6th Star (Bonus Card)
I do like the general design of this card and often, there were quite a few SP in the set. It gives a nice closeup of his face and mask, which is my favourite. Plus, the dual colours really gives it a nice pop. PC


5th Star (Also Bonus)
I recently turned into a bit of a Turco PC collector... as well as a few others. Don't know if he'll be HOF ever, but that's not why I collect him. Another SPGU card, but a year early. Again a nice shot of the mask and a triple colour in all GU. The green white in the top make this a really nice card. Definitely PC.


4th Star
Hey, he's a Hab goalie. He hasn't proven himself through time yet, but you never know. This one has a nice auto and the Trilogy script set looks great. Its not a PC, but I might be swayed. STill a great card.


3rd, 2nd & 1st Star
I can't decide between these three. This appeals to me at all levels of my passion for collecting. It has my three favourite goalies. Its all the same set. I don't have ANY other cards from this set, so this is a total complete and lovely surprise. These cards are Die cut on top of a nice thick cardboard. Totally awesome. I don't care if anyone thinks one is better than the other, any of these could be 1st star in my book. If I had to classify, Fuhr would have to be third star if only because of the damage on card at both edges of the auto. Its less noticeable in person than on the scan. Roy would be second only because of its damage at the top left of the auto (again, less noticeable in person). That makes Hextall First. Anyways, enjoy!




Love this secret Santa. Thanks to Smashy77 for the cards! I definitely want to do this again next year.

Cheers,
