Heh, that was awhile ago. I thought they were decent quality and a good price but they were having a special.

Probably could go through mathguy's thread and see what we paid in the past.

From what I recall they were equivalently price if you bought a traditional 54 card deck. Though PS was better quality slightly. The key was that you could do 108, 162, 216...all the way up in 54 card increments and with each step the price per card decreased and they both had random deals all the time.

The other option for affordable cards is PrintPlayGames. https://www.printplaygames.com/product/poker-cards

They're $2.65 per 18 gloss cards, and $2.85 per 18 linen cards. If you're ordering a minimum of 900 cards, they'll knock off an additional 18% making it $2.17 per 18 for gloss and $2.34 for linen.

So about $108.50 plus shipping for 900 cards.

ArtsCow is cheaper on sale (like right now) at $6 (in groups of 3) per 54, so it would be about $90 shipped for 810 cards.

Not quite...that 18% discount if for multiples of cards...so you could have 50 prints of the first 18 cards, not 50 unique sheets.

I'm pretty sure that's not required.

These apply no matter how many different images of card sheets you have.

Putting together a checklist for potential proofreaders since we are using this opportunity as a Quality Control exercise.

1. Check all text on official cards, Second Post, and Small Cards. List any discrepancies between any version.

Name, ID, Left Box, Right Box, Points, and Powers (powers especially as wording changes may be small.

2. Check for Super Strength and Flying consistency between all versions

3. Check for correct publisher on all versions (DC, Marvel...)

more may be added later. @Tornado if you have other things you can add please do...

I've been hammering through the SSE's lately and have added a bunch to the google drive folder. I switched from the waves since the tracking down mini and comic images was time consuming. I'm working my way backwards since the newer stuff is easier to find.

Billy Batson/captain marvel mini photos, any of the SSE33 figures photos, and the modified mini for Conan photos would be great if anyone has them.

Looks good.

Need to crank another wave or two.

Added a few more items to be checked.

Wave 8 added to the queue
