I've seen foil proofs on eBay...never a Judge Exalted Angel though. That would indeed be a card I'd love to eventually get a hold of for my set. My Memnite horde could use a few art proofs too  I have picked up a few angel proofs in the past. When I was going to school in Olympia (1998-2000) I used to hit the Seattle Comic & Card conventions they had every few months and get my proofs from the artists who showed up there. As such I guess you could say that I do collect proofs as one of my MtG collection projects, but that is an ongoing thing and somewhat sporadic. I usually don't think about it for a while then try and hunt down proofs from the newest set from the artists online if I can find them.

Up to 12 decks now, although a bunch of cards are switched between decks. It's awesome letting my buddies play different decks when they want!

waiting for the cards to arrive for another EDH deck- Yisan, the wandering bard. It has done well in tournaments lately and I'm looking forward to seeing how it does in multiplayer. __________________ | ~~ The STFU ~~ _l""|"\__, |~~~ TRUCK ~~~ _l'_|'_|_|) |(@)(@)""**|(@)(@)"**|(@)

So I've made some long sought after pickups in the past month.I finally got the playset of M12 portuguese foils. My 4th S-Chinese foil torment is on the way to complete the main project. The only copy of Grim Lavamancer I won't have is a Judge Promo Artist proof and that's not required. Sadly I had worked out a deal with MOTL user TheMike314 for 4 for $400 but he didn't ship when he said he would. Then he says they got stolen that night after having them for years.... I've found a couple other people that have playsets but I dont have the stuff from their want list. But I'm super excited to make a new video that will include: The full Global Playset (168 lavamancers) 3 torment artist proofs 1 m14 artist proof 2-3 graded copies 6 torment crimps 1 m14 crimp 1 m14 'off center' 4 F&L back ink errors 4 sealed F&L decks 3 Framed Uncut sheets of French m12 (common, uncommon, & rare/mythic sheets so that last one has 2 lavamancers on it THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT ART SKETCH FROM TIRESE NIELSEN FOR OBSTINATE FAMILIAR THAT INSPIRED THE CREATION OF GRIM LAVAMANCER 2000+ copies of Obstinate Familiar a couple other related cards like Ashen Firebeat, Molten Influence, Lavamancer's Skill and 100-200 extra copies of Grim Lavamancer. I wish I hadn't opened up my sealed packs of Torment & M12. Heh, I'm excited. I've picked up lots of neat stuff.
