Here are the 3 remaining helvault oversived cards.

My scanner isn't what it once was, but if the quality is still of an acceptable level then I may have some promos for you guys.

Well, I think the scanner head has come a notch or two out of square to the frame. All the scans come out slightly skewed. But I figured with the way you perspective crop the images, photoshop would turn it into perfection. I'll get those promos for you when I get back into town next week.

oh, that's not a problem at all. Most are like that directly from the factory. Old scanners streak, and that's a problem - in the blacks especially, you get vertical colored lines.

Thanks!

It'd be nice to have the normal back in UHQ tho! On the oversized backs in the past, there are even slight difference, such as the use of a R or TM after the MTG logo and/or Deckmaster logo. The corners too are sometimes proportionally more or less sharp than the regular backs. Are these 6x9?

Do you really want these scanned as well? I've got the full set as well as all the new promos.

I've been away for a while due to moving house and the birth of my daughter so scanning has been difficult for me. However, do tell me which of the missing promos are true priorities if you want me to try and get one or two scans in.

Congrats Nyth for both your newborn and your moving!

I believe extreme is referencing the Killing Wave, Restoration Angel, and Silverblade Paladin promos for Avacyn Restored (Latch Seeker and Moonsilver Spear are done). We definitely need them since they have unique artwork (plus the 10E alt foils that you have & sorry to keep bothering you over that one). We'll wait as long as we have to though, we realize that life takes precedence.

whatever you can. Congrats !
I was actually referring to the helvault oversized foils - you know, the $100+ ones, but anything's good.
But I thought you got that fancy scanner to scan the 10th foils.

Oh cool. I didn't know they did foil versions - Are they any different from the regulars?
