One more tidbit -

This years series has 4 checklist cards instead of 3, yet the checklist cards do not have a list of any of the insert cards at all

The only thing on the checklist cards is a list of the 196 cards from the set. So i guess if you want to refer to inserts you are still chasing you need to use the flyer.

EDIT: Scratch that, i was looking at the parallel checklists. Checked the base checkilsts and they have all the inserts listed.

just another flaw to add to the long list *sigh*

This series really is full of surprises.

Actually one short on the Rookies this box, maybe my red sheet card was supposed to be one?

How are you finding the quality of cards...tak35bne has suggested that he pulled a lot of damaged cards, is this your experience as well?

Nice Yow Yeh it looks like it doesn't have that line

I have had a few damaged cards, have a small pile of parallels with bent corners and a couple of the Rookie inserts that came out damaged as well. Quite a lot of base cards have had dodgy edges too but i haven't really payed much attention to them yet, the sorting begins soon.

[hybridtheory13]

Yep, and the Nathan Gardner Rookie insert was damaged too so will have to send that back to Select for replacement

.....and the Signature card has obvious fading on the signature again.
