Finally, I DON'T think these have been seen anywhere else, so I kept them for last.

Occam you crazy, crazy dude.
Awesome stuff tho :P I'd wish i had those Duress, they look really cool :P
So much insane stuff, unbelieveable. What' the story behind the first land and the last 3 cards?
But you are not the "Misprint Youbtubeguy" ?
Gauntlet => Tetravus. Power Leak?Quote:

Either way, absolutely insane.
no, occam is from singapore, the misprint guy is from usa.Quote:

this is insane stuff! i´d love to have the 2 duresses (they would land in my deck immediately xD )
more pictures please =)
@r3dd03: glad you got the package and enjoying it ;-)
i think this was the 2nd fastest oversea delivery i ever witnessed that was not express (5days from germany to usa, a year ago it even happened in 4days, hehe)
The first one is from an unofficial set of cards. It's not particularly valuable or anything, just picked it up because it looked cool.Quote:

To the best of my sketchy knowledge on this, they're just like the robot chicken cards -- created to be given to people, in this case, jgl and co. I really don't think any images have been posted before, and I've never read anything about these. They should probably be added to the library image pages at some point in time.
Nah that's another guy. He's posted on the source before. He deals with all kinds of misprints, whereas I typically don't bother with miscuts, crimps, random oddities. Mostly with summer/test prints. His collection is a lot more extensive as a result of diversity, though.Quote:

here are more players, we usually dont care about graded stuff. for me personally, i for instance actively dislike it.
plus the duresses are much cooler in my opinion. people love the textless stuff!
Well worth the wait :)Quote:

Occam, I love and hate seeing your posts. Love:seeing the beauties and the rarities. Hate: makes me want to buy such things >.>
Dernestor -Remember, there was a Sunday ;) super fast and lovely looking as always. I'll be buying more goodies from you soon.
Welp, the thread's over. Occam wins again. See you guys in 2014.
I saw those triple misprinted things in person from Richard @last year Ovino7. He was asking rather low amount of money at that time (well still more than I could ever shell out for a misprinted mtg card), I thought it was a deal because you can flip that stuff at insane prices. In case you are wondering what's that white stuff on the misprinted backsides, is because other regular backs were glued onto the cards, a professional ancient book restorer unglued and restored them :wink:
Insane scans. Respect!
For some reason, I feel like I've seen the Seth Rogen, JGL, etc. cards before. Did you post them on Librarities? I feel like I've seen them before previous to this post.Quote:

Always looking forward to your stuff, been a while, but the wait was well worth it.
I hardly play physically, partially because of time (work, personal life, post grad) and partially because the eternal scene here is terrible. I play quite often on mws etc, though less so than before. Can probably put decks together for scans -- maybe I'll do some soon.Quote:

The only info I have is from the previous owner, that they were created to be given to jgl etc.Quote:

sdematt is completely right. they were posted before somewhere, i know these too.
i dont think it was librarities, more like the early pages of the manadrain pimp vintage deck thread.
Occam, I want to do whatever you do for a living.
Then you better go back to school, Valter :PQuote:

Well, that would be banking, but I wouldn't recommend it. The pay and bonuses are alright but it's just not a good industry to be in right now.Quote:

One day i'll post scans of a foil exodus sotf set, a textless duress set, hopefully a textless cradle set together with the cot set that most people have seen.
With how things are looking, I should have some more goodies to post this weekend. Cross your fingers for me ;)
No - it was me :wink:Quote:

Can anyone name what is missing from these 'near complete' sets? The BIN prices are absurd but maybe somebody here will win them

If anyone buys these piles of Koreeeeen and breaks them down I call dibs on the Pygmy Hippo, Equipoise, Morinfen and the Gallowbraid! I need them to finish my sets.
Edit: near complete Visions, Weatherlight, Tempest and Stronghold.
No results when I click that link.Quote:

PS: I know its not foil cards, but Its my personal oppinion/preferance, just don't like them!
I dont have a scanner, sorry for bad pic's ;)
*** Mr. Nether Spirit is gone, 1x mishra took his place. ***
I approve of any deck that attempts to battle with Nether Spirit.
I love BUG decks. Especially with Loam and Creeping Tar Pit.
Nether Spirit is interesting. I guess having an infinite defender is never a bad thing eh?
Yes, he is my new addition to my deck. Hav'ent had time to playtest him mutch yet. Since Spiritis the only creature in the deck; Works lovely with Liliana, Darkblast & Load dredge.Quote:

PS: Sorry about this 'off-topic' post, but had to answer :)
Spirit is the best win con! Other than Concession.
What Languages did Force of Will come in?
Isn't Nether Spirit a little weak with all those deathrite shamans around? Still awesome though!Quote:

If a shaman survives 2 rounds against this deck, something is wrong!!?!? :) But the Spirit is on a test for now.Quote:

Cool deck idea, t000!
How do all the pimps in here feel about new-border Brainstorm and/or Counterspell? I've been seeing a lot of people "pimp" out their decks with the Izzet v. Golgari Brainstorm and I just don't get it... To be fair though, I play with Japanese (non-foil) MM Brainstorm so I'm no Brainstorm pimpmaster.
Legacy is the only real format where you get to play with sweet old spells, why would you want them to be new-border like all those dumb creatures that have been printed?
The new borders are about the same as ass cancer.

As you can see I have the MM Brainstorms Japanese also (witch I love), but in this deck I try to match the images on the cards to the blue/white jace color :)
I agree on the stupid new-age border, the non-modern cards looks much more 'clean' an PRO.
