This
is one of my “Rainy Day” posts that I wrote awhile back for the days I have
writer’s block.
Last
year in Allen & Ginters there were a couple of entertainers that made it on to both the autograph and relic checklisgts. Two of them; Kevin Smith and Snoop Lion (he has since returned to using Snoop Dogg) are pretty well known while Felicia Day is a geek goddess.
I picked up the Smith and Snoop Dogg relics for $9.14
total shipped for both cards. Both cards are multi-colored with the Smith
having a nice white/blue split while the Snoop Dogg actually has three colors.
The majority is black with the white spot in the bottom left corner and along
the bottom there is a yellow-green color that is difficult to see. The seller
threw in a Snoop Dogg base card in the sale. I was hoping to pick up an orange/blue
Kevin Smith multi-colored relic but they tend to run a bit more so for the deal
I got with the card I got I am happy. I would love to add their official
autographs but they are currently well outside of my price range so I went with
an IP Kevin Smith autograph for $10 shipped. There are actually similar Kevin Smith
autograph cards available for $9.99 that are being sold by Jay And Silent Bob’s
Secret Stash, the comic book shop in New Jersey owned by Kevin Smith.
Felicia Day is an intelligent, hilarious, beautiful
amazing person. She is an actress, producer, director, and writer and above all
she is a redhead (I love redheads). Many would consider her an “indie”
personality because she is probably most well known for her internet web-shows
Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Show (Hilarious!), The Guild and Dragon Age:
Redemption as well as video games and cartoon voice work but she has also
appeared in major shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Eureka and Supernatural
and I have to admit I have a huge crush on her.
Day has relics and autographs in both Buffy and The
Guild releases but prices of those cards are insanely expensive so when Topps
included her on the checklist I figured I had a better chance of adding her
cards to my collection. I picked up her relic for a whopping $1.50, it is a
single colored dress relic but I am looking to add a multi-colored relic card
eventually. The autograph ended up running me $20.26, which is about the price
range for her A&G autograph cards. Just this month I was able to add her
The Guild relic for under $20 shipped.
What better way to close out this post than to end on a
beautiful shot of Felicia Day
Loved The Guild. My wholesaler had boxes of that product on clearance, so I grabbed one. No Felicia though.
ReplyDeleteAmen. Felicia definitely gives the me a case of the heart eye emojis as well.
