E90-1, The Kraken (AKA The E-Monster) - post your collection progress

[brianp-beme]

I agree...more E90-1 collectors should expose themselves. Until someone takes up the challenge, here is an American Caramel of the unceasingly creased Kraken variety to hopefully tease out some more E-Monsters.

Brian (I believe this Joss has what is referred to as a 'crackle' finish. It might be even more interesting to look at than a minty example)

I'm one card away (where are you, Ed Phelps?!) after securing a Cy Young Cleveland and a Vic Willis recently.

+20

Lucky enough to add the Shoeless joe to PC. Guess I have to finish the set now...

[riggs336]

My first addition in nearly a year. I think this puts me at 200 (116/121).

You are now at 200, about 96% towards set completion, but 80% of the way to the Kraken home port...some rough seas ahead. Good luck!

Glad to see that last post brought a few folks out of the woodwork.

A while back, I thought I was shorted three points. That must not have been true because after two pickups of three-pointers, my total should be 215 and not the 218 I thought it would be.

Added Shean and Stone one hand for six points in the last week. Here's Shean while Stone is still in transit.

Missing only Shoeless Joe, Wags Batting, and Stahl now!

So let's try this again -- my total is 215! Apologies for cheating the Kraken on three points.

Good you came forward Anson, because the Kraken himself (it might be herself, as I've been kinda afraid to ask) comes by on occasion and checks folks #'s for accuracy. Not sure how the Kraken knows everyone's true Kraken #'s, but if anyone would, it sure would be the Kraken.

Nice pickups, and all is revised in E-Monster land.

You wouldn't think a dude without shoes would be worth 20 Kraken points, but congrats anyways!

Welcome aboard Jeff. Really, Ed Phelps has eluded you? Should be a relatively easy one to finish off your set. I will award you an awesome 249 number.

Great achievement Jeff, congrats! You indicated that you have 120 of 120 cards. I assume this perhaps means that you do not have the Dots Miller with sunset variation? The Miller sunset card is a relatively new discovery, or at least became better known, in the past 8-10 years. I believe it was possibly first identified by our own ullmandds. It makes the set, at least in the Eyes of the Kraken, complete at 121 cards.

Let me know what card you do not have, and I will adjust your number accordingly. For example if it is the Dots Miller sunset card (which has a value of 3), your number would officially be 247.

I know this is not a buy/sell/trade section, but if anyone has a raw or low grade Plank available for sale please pm me.

Aww, come on Jackson, don't state that you know that this is not the BST section, but then go ahead and treat it as such. No need for BS-Tea spill over onto this thread. Walk this Plank request to the correct section and I will wish you good luck.

I do have the sunset variation, acquired it raw from Anson awhile back.
