You are not alone dude. I had a 30th anniversary Cable holo and a Gambit holo. All became cloudy. Seriously disheartening. Doubt there is anyway to refresh its condition.

My Cable and Magneto holo are still surviving. But Gambit holo is a goner. Are you referring to the Hologram thnat appear on selected X-Men comics to mark 30th anniversary of Uncanny X-men?

92 Masterpieces? The one by Joe Jusko? I think it was selling for RM 5 back then which is alot for me. But later i saved pocket money to collect Marvel Flair..irony.

I didnt get the Boris/ Bell Marvel Masterpieces set. I stopped at Hilderbrant Bros Masterpieces. As time passes, less comics shop brought in trading cards.

Looking back at my comics and cards reminds me on how I used to visit those comics shops in PJ area after school and buying a fewpacks with friends. The thrill of scoring the special cards was priceless. I didnt complete whole set until I went study overseas and got the rest from comic conventions. Most of them at resonable prices.

The Morpheus 3-D Card I got it for RM58.73 @ USD18.17. I think I was lucky to bid and won this magnificent condition card from ebay. You need to be vigilant & go thru ebay almost all the time. Me, well I check ebay 10 - 20 times a day looking for bargains tongue.gif

H-IV Spiderman vs Venom 3-D card I got it from packs. I got my H-X Wolverine 3-D card I bought it from Comics Corner for RM20 almost 10 years ago rclxms.gif

Now I'm trying to complete my Skydisc card. I have Superman & Batman. Now hunting for Man of Steel & Death.
Comics Corner was one of the places that had more trading cards variety to offer. I still frequent their outlet at Damansara Jaya which is more focus to gaming cards.

The only thing bout the Hilderbrandt brothers are that they do faces lousy. I think its one of the brothers that do all that snarling faces. In the masterpieces set most of the characters are snarling or clenching their teeth. Looks constipated. The only one who looks relaxed is Professor X. Their work on lighting is good though.

Alex Ross remains one of the best artist of our generation. Kingdom Come was a really good book for an Elseworld series. Feel free to disagree with me.
I have some Wizard: Guide to Comics magazines...some covers like Marvel Heroes and Villains variant drawn by Alex Ross...simply fascinating art.

Other artists i like would be Joe Chiodo (funny looking w big boobs and buttocks) or Dave Dorman. There are many others too but cant remember their names.

Dan Berenton ...nice but his style is more to "horror" kinda feel.

Early trading cards offer one type of special inserts...later ones got multiple types of inserts. Some have to buy more than one box to complete all special inserts.

UV is bad. No wonder some cards have that UV protection coating. I kept all my special cards in Ultra Pro sleeves and file them in binders.

I hate to see deteriotion in those 3D holos.
