Is it still possible and where can I get these?

He said he will reprint some and make his own news sets, but they won't be free.

Who is "he" and how do I get in touch with him?

I actually got a set from this fella.  Look him up on facebook.  Overpower Legion, I think.  Someone suggested I look him up from this board, though I can't remember who it was.  The set was free.  I like the Toronto set much better (the card stock was much closer to the real deal and the pics on most of the cards were better choices) but there were a few nice surprises (I too couldn't put that Invisible Woman card down at first... I don't know if I've ever imagined a woman that hot before ::) ) and the backing was a nice touch.  For a free set, I thought it was really cool, but there was only 1 of each card... including non OPD's!!!  So you're stuck with one Guardian Devil, one Rescue Mission, one of anything you want 2 or more of.  The guy was very nice, and I offered to make a donation to cover costs, but he said it wasn't necessary for now.  Again, they were neat, but the Toronto sets were way better, and more complete for playing.

I agree, I pretty much said the same thing in my video.

The Beyonder was really cool, since I don't have one. 

Ya know, with so many good cards in the Marvels set, I wonder what rarity the cards would've been.

Don't forget the many cards, nearly 200 that were meant to be reprinted.

Ah I forgot about those... I guess they would've filled alot of common slots.  Wow, the set was HUGE!

A note about the cards in OverPower: The Marvels (the official name of the set)..

The reprinted specials, 54 of them, would only be included in Starter Decks. If I were to classify Common, Uncommon, Rare, Very Rare ratings for the set, I would give any card that only came in the Starter Deck a C. In addition to the Specials from the above, their respective Character cards, most Power cards (guessing the Any-Powers and 5 Multi are not included), most Universe cards (minus the 6AP Teamwork but including the Xavier Protocols), the "generic" Location card and Missions.

VR is obviously going to be Galactus, Beyonder, AP Teamwork, Avenger's ID, reprinted Any Characters, the remaining Power cards, the Hideout Discovered event. Basically, cards that were extremely hard to find and/or promotional will keep their rarity.

So it leaves the chunk of cards to put into Uncommon and Rare. I would probably glob the remaining non-OPD into U, with a handful picked out to be placed into R. Likewise for the remaining OPD, I'd probably put them all into R with a handful placed into VR.

I would imagine that Angel/Wasp would become the Blue Beetle (JLA) of the set.
