combiner1 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 hey look...somebody's auctioning off some Gen 13 Chrome cvr... but they did say which number it is??? http://cgi.ebay.com/Gen-13-Special-Edition-nn-CGC-9-8-Chromium-Edition-E-/260831434734?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item3cbac3d7ee http://cgi.ebay.com/Gen-13-Special-Edition-nn-CGC-9-8-Chromuim-Edition-D-/250869692784?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item3a68ffb970 http://cgi.ebay.com/Gen-13-Special-Edition-nn-CGC-9-8-Chromuim-Edition-F-/260831434735?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item3cbac3d7ef not to offend anybody but....are these the knock off cvr, i've been hearing about??? There are 6 of those, and they all reprint Gen 13 #1, the mini series from 1994. They also reprint various old covers, including Gen 13 #13A, #6, #25, etc. So why is CGC calling them "#nn"?? can't they just say on the title "reprint #1 mini" or something like that???

The books themselves have no number, either on the cover, or in the indicia. When books have no number (ex: Killing Joke), they get the "#nn" designation. The label does state that it's a reprint of the #1 mini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMyAmadeus Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 As they say you win some you lose some. But in the long run in the attention those books got by the number of watchers Definitely increased bids on some of the other book I had for sale . No slabs were hurt or burnt in the Listing and subsequent selling of these books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the owner of these items I will clear a few things up. 1. The label does indicate "Reprints Gen 13 Limited Series #1". It is listed in the auction as such. 2. The Chromium "Special Editions" were originally only available packed with the 12" Fairchild & Lynch action figures (Series 1). The 12" Fairchild & Lynch figures were Diamond Comics Preview Exclusives. (Limited to ?) These figures were not mass produced. 3. The artwork has be censored (painted black) in numerous spots reducing both T&A and blood. 4. There are 6 covers. I hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayor006 Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 So is anyone else noticing the lack of the box sets these days? I looked through Ebay the other day and only found 3, 2 Jim Lee and 1 Mike Choi. Haven't seen a red box available in a long time either....

RockMyAmadeus Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Not any more than usual. I've been looking for the boxes since 1999 or so, and they don't appear with any sort of regularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayor006 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 I dunno, seem like as few as three years ago you could log on to ebay and depending on how you searched you could find about 3 of each edition at any time. I managed to find one that I didn't have so I have a Choi on the way now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayor006 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Opened a Brandon Choi box that I got in the mail this evening. All the books look awesome except for two the paper doll cover and the create your own cover both have printer marks which seem to have been pretty common. Think I'll send in the Gen-et Jackson for grading.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
