Well, I just call all the clothing swatches cards 'threads'... sorry if that confused anyone. lol I can't recall the exact ones I have off the top of my head, but one is from Jackson Live and one is from Televised Fashions.

Edit - I forgot I had snapped quick pictures on my phone. These are the two:

OMFG! I only bought ONE 24 pack hobby box, which I received today. I separated the thick ones to open because those are the ones that may contain swatches. Had about 6 of those, and as I was opening each one I prayed for a swatch. I was down to the last pack, with no luck, and had given up hope. What should the last one have? A clothing swatch from a televised performance!!! Still can't believe my luck! :D

I'm officially jealous of you both. the only way i can justify buying these cards if i get a clothing swatch but i didn't buy one of ebay because i didn't think that i'll be that lucky. i envy you.
 
Thanks krystikel, I received the full set.
They are beautiful :D
Do you know if Panini has an album to put them in?
Otherwise I'll just use the standard baseball card folders.
 
^^That was fast! I'm glad you like them. :)

I have no clue about an album... I've not heard about anything but then again I haven't looked for that info. It would be great if they made one specifically for them... hm... If I hear anything I will let you know!
 
I bought 31 packs,waiting for 29 now. I have bought single protectors and they should be ok, but i'm sure there was a folder coming
 
I checked Panini's website and in the MJ section there are only the cards available for purchase - nothing to store them in. I really would like a custom binder for them... lol I have my sets that I am keeping in the 9-per-page sheets which are in a plain black binder. Kind of boring. Haha! Oh well. It works. :)
 
I'll see if I can find a blank binder with an insertable card at the front :)
But if not, I'll just use the single card protectors,I'm sure they will be ok ;)

Hi! Yes there is a trading thread Eric started under the 'Memorabilia' Section ;)
 
Does anybody know where I can buy these from the UK?? Panini won't ship them to me and the only guy I can find on ebay doesn't ship to the uk either???

Any ideas would be great! Especially interested in the hobby box....
 
I received my hobby boxes a couple of days ago and found this swatch card in them:

If anybody needs any card I have almost the entire red set to trade.
 
^Lari you are incredibly lucky. Those cards (with 5 swatches in 1) fetch over $1000 on ebay, and are the rarest!!!

eta: there is a trading thread on the memorabilia forum, and the MJ collectors website - http://www.mjjcollectors.com/
 
^ Thanks Rhilo! I'm very happy I was lucky to find that card!
Oh, I'm a member of MJJ Collectors as well. I have traded some cards there already. I'll check the trading thread here later. Thanks! ;D
 
Lari you are so lucky...I saw your Card on MJJCollector first and the only thing I thought was
wow.gif
OMG... the card is so beautiful
 
Oh wow, there's going to be a second release? I need to start saving up then :D

Will the swatches be different (cut from another set of clothes), because the detailed description of the 1st release says how much was available from each type?
 
What Panini did was print about half of the cards in the series and they released them for sale a couple months ago. They have now finished printing the second half of the series and will be releasing them next month. None of the numbers of cards available has changed and the odds for getting the special insert cards are the same. I'm assuming that if the first half hadn't sold well then they'd have not continued with the printing - which would mean that the number of available 'special' cards would have been cut in half from the published amounts. However, since the second half is being released then the published numbers are indeed accurate. Nothing is changing about the cards - they are the same as what's already out.

I'm rather tired right now... did what I just said make sense? lol
 
I'm happy because I have full set Gold 1-190, but now I must collect 26 insert card Again... but I don't know where to buy that card... any suggestion??? :(
