Lost Bid on 2 Alt Art Vic I

[Undeadguy 5,749]

Anyone on here win those 2 alt arts on eBay? I had $100 on both and someone swooped in with $102.50 -.-

Hopefully some new Vic will pop up again soon.

@Irishmadcat Was this what you were trying to shift at Euros?

The eBay post said they had won them at a raffle and didn't play Armada so I find it unlikely. Seller made $205 which is pretty good.

What victory. I just have stuff from sulkest and store champs I think

100$ for a card?  Someone has the completionist bug.  I recently gave away not 1, but 2 'meeting at sullust' ISD alt arts. Apparently those go for like 20$.  It is all insane.

The Vic-I does have the "inherent" value of being the 1st "Winners Alt Art" Released...   And there were Fewer of those Kits made than any other tournament kit for Armada, so they have a value based on its (lack of) availability, essentially.

 

I mean, I don't have exact numbers to quote - but I was told that the Massing at Sullust was (to paraphrase) "close to Six-Times as popular as the first OP tournament kit, but closer to twice with the Second"...

Also the VSD I alt art is a very heavy plastic, and also has that sheen to it, I forget the name for that technique. 

I believe it was only given away at Gen Con, and Worlds 2016, I could be wrong though.

Yes, I get confused with them, so to Clarify:


The Victory II was in the Spring 2015 Kit.  They are cardboard like the Rest, but Rare due to the fact they were the first kit.

 

The Victory I was heavy card spot-gloss Plastic, and were only given out at GenCon2016, I think for people who turned up Second Day (I'm not 100% on that though)_.  Its Rare and Expensive that way.

102 is a good 30 less then i've seen them go for on Ebay.

[outerrimrebel 316]

I was going to throw a bid on them when they were $50, but when they went over $100...

I picked one up a while back and I can say it is pretty **** cool. I reasoned what I spent on it was still way cheaper then going to minnesota for the weekend.

I was looking for an image like that second one, it definitely looks like a properly good plastic, and of course the art is always amazing

Best part is the Assault Gozanti and Combat GR75 is the same way for US Nationals....

[Forresto 2,200]

That is beautiful but for a hundred bucks? I'll pass and just buy two more ISDs. 

[Snipafist 7,536]

FFG was giving those out to anyone who won 2 games during the Friday and Sunday Adepticon tournaments this year.

Of course you have no idea what FFG is doing for prize support until the event starts, but I haven't been disappointed yet.

Yea I like to collect things. Don't care about dice or range rulers, but alt arts are cool.

I'll trade you alt arts for rulers and stuff ?, needs some squad tokens (and navs), maybe a few more braces (lost one)

Oh I do like to collect the defense tokens. But I only have 1 ruler, which is from the SC kit. I bought some others. I gave away my command tokens already.

[Darthain 1,747]

I've got SC rulers (16 and 17), gave away a 17 even.

Which are the ones that are in proper scale?

You're thinking of the Regionals rulers from earlier this year/late last year.

The store champs rulers are the correct scale.

Sweet! And they're acrylic? Where can I get my hands on one (or two)?

Yep, they're acrylic. I like both sets of them but the 2017 ones are double sided, which is cool.
