Palatinus' OverPower Forum

I think the M.O.D.O.K. thing was just that in Monumental there was 1 card that could NOT be obtained from Booster packs.  You had to buy starters to get it.  It could have been the special for HYDRA, or one of the reprinted Power Cards.  I seem to remember it having something to do with M.O.D.O.K, but it could have simply been misinformation from a friend at the time. I just remember buying starter after starter until I acquired said card, whatever it was.  I apologize for any confusion I may have caused.

Apology not required.

Looking at my cards thoroughly, I found another Psycho-Man Fear that had a pink spot but it's in a different place. It's just above the TM in Psycho-Man instead of below the P.

I still can't find the last few oddity cards though.

I've noticed that the Backlash's Psi-Whips card (code LQ) that I scanned in has a distinctive black blob at the top right corner of the card where the comma is after the first line.

bamf! looked through our collection and noticed that 3/4 of our set of Psi-Whips have it and one doesn't.

Should I classify this as a printing error for the database? What would help me is if you have this card, tell me how many have the blob and how many don't so I can make a decision.

My Psi-Whips (I have 1) has the blob at the top right corner as well in the same place as yours.

any idea on the spawn finite power? i see that the one I own has off borders. and this card is only in the promos zip on the main website not the image zip. so are there 2 versions?


some trading website, main card displayed on op.ca's char look up, an alternate url i found by removig the "b".

The one without the b is the proper cut one. The way to tell would be to compare the border to the rest of the cards from Image. I might have goofed on which card is displayed.

How was the fixed card released?
The miscue was a tournament release, right?

Miscut was at a Wizard World. Proper was distributed to card shops as local tournament prizes.

Thanks

I picked up a few boxes of loose OP cards a few weeks ago and stuck in with all the commons were a few miscut cards. You can see how they connect in the photo. Does anyone know how rare these are? I've purchased a lot of OP cards over the years, but I've never come across these before.

They are quite rare seeing how they passed QA without being noticed. I can't classify these as oddities because there are probably only 1 of each of  these in existence.

And worth a fortune!!!!!!!

Worth...less. It depends on the collector, probably worth a few times more than the card itself. As a "complete" set of miscuts, I'd probably give it a much higher value but don't expect the same pricing as a second tier VR (think Power Leech/Bastion).

I've heard people offer 1.5x the value for miscut Magic cards... sometimes 2x, but really, they have to love miscut cards to give that kind of value I think... I know a guy once worked at a card printing factory here locally, and he got some Magic sheets, uncut/full page prints.  Those have fetched some good value... not sure it was legal though.
