Hey Alexis,

Does it count as having a set if I can chop up a set of AP sheets? :-D

I've personally never collected any of the AP's.

Hi Len
Wanted to extend the title to "Or Beta/Collector sheet", but I can't. It can be interesting as well, to know how many members here own one. Now, I know, at least 2 owners.

Well now that I am trying to piece one together, does anyone think it is something still possible to do? Or will I get almost all the way done and have some cards that just cant be located anymore?

I never collected APs, or almost anything signed. When you get around to regular cards I can respond a bit more positively.

Iirc there was something with the lotus ... there was one available on ebay before some time but it was like twice the price of a beta one.

I guess it all boils down to money ... if this is not an issue whatsoever it should be entirely possible.

I know of a private lotus which is signed by Garfield that is 5k. I think the fact its signed by garfield ruins the card. I also know of an unsigned one ABU Games has for 6k.

Like some other sets of stuff the crux will be with a few cards. Serra, Lotus, etc. You may want to get those first to make sure you can complete it. On the other hand starting with just anything and "catching them all" might be more fun because you can see some progress while you still have some money in the bank and you can face the challenge of seeing just how far you can go.
