A sealed box of The Two Towers Trading cards arrived today! I was lucky. Can't Post

Ive made a few posts on this section mentioning that i collect the LOTR Topps trading cards from the movies. Ive got a large collection of them, mainly the Autograph cards i collect.

This week i brought a sealed box of Two Towers movie cards. You get 36 packets, and in each of these boxes you are guarenteed at least 1 autograph card. Each autograph card is personally handwritten by the actors/people working on the film. Each card is unique.

Its great fun to open them, one by one, to see which autograph card you will get. In the second pack, i hit the jackpot!

I was lucky enough to get Eowyn (Miranda Otto) which is extremely rare! infact its the single rarest autograph card in the Two Towers set at 1 in every 518 packs! I was very very happy to get it.

So just had to share that little LOTR nerd-dom with you. Laugh

P.S These are currently the Autograph cards i have, if anyone is remotely intrested.

Cool. [In reply to] Can't Post

The thrill of the hunt, so to speak.

I'm not a big autograph hound but I wouldn't turn down a Craig Parker card. :-)

(that wasn't a hint, or anything... just saying I'd rise above my so-so interest in his case)

The thrill of the hunt is the best part! [In reply to] Can't Post

Its alot of (Nerdy) fun to open the packets and see what you get, that is until you end up with a Figwit autograph card Wink (Though i do actually want a Figwit card).

The Craig Parker/Haldir card is a nice one, he took care signing the cards he did.
