]Essentials is a 110-card set formed from the out-of-print GameMastery Item Pack One and the follow-up Hero’s Hoard booster set combined together for the first time ever ...[/quote wrote:
Any idea which ones yet? I'd love to see a list, but because I already have a lot of these, the most useful list would be one that says which ones they were in the old sets. "#23 Short Sword" wouldn't help me because I would have no idea which short sword was being reprinted. But something that said, "Item Pack One cards being reprinted: 01, 03, 04, etc." would be fantastic.
BTW, Item Pack One was a 52 card set and Hero's Hoard was 110, but if I recall correctly, there was a 30ish card overlap, leaving about about 130 unique cards. While essentials won't have ALL the cards from both sets, at 110, it will probably have MOST of them.

OK, if anyone with certain powers that be are actually reading these boards, I have a better suggestion for what should be in this, not so much item pack one and Hero's Hoard but all the cards from Hero's Hoard and Relics of War combined! Item pack One was already put out as a boxed set complete. But Hero's Hoard and Relics of War were not. I don't care about shiny foil cards I want every single card from the entire set available as one stinkin' set I can shove in the binder I already bought to keep everything straight with the same kinds of display pages other folks use for baseball cards. Can you do that for us please?
Let me amend my earlier request, at 110 cards please just reprint Hero's Hoard as a complete set and use the same numbers so I can combine this deck with the cards I already have of Hero's Hoard in my binder and have one complete set with a lot of extra cards for some items. I rather liked the chainmail that was reprinted from Item Pack 1 in Hero's Hoard. Heck I used the card as a reference for a con badge picture at a convention! If I can get the scanner working I'll make sure I scan the badge for those that want to see it.
You know, its as if these Paizo guys know that I've not been spending money on monthly releases of 3.5 and Forgotten Realms stuff and have decided to help be empty my wallet in the manner it has become accustomed to over the last few years.
I'd say i'm down for this, even though I already have Item Pack 1. I really want to own Hero's Hoard and Relics of War, even if it isn't a complete set.

I've added the card list!
Thanks a lot for the list and the references to the previous sets.
Looks like a good spread. Only 6 (5?) cards from Item Pack 1, but they are all good ones. Only 1 card that appears in both Item Pack 1 and Hero's Hoard - HH95 Boots. I almost guess that it is a typo and should be HH94 Boots because that one doesn't show up in both sets. Otherwise, everything from Hero's Hoard is stuff you can't get in Item Pack 1. A nice selection of weapons, armor, etc. from Hero's Hoard and Relics of War, including the impossible-to-find ones HH10 Studded Leather and HH39 Spiked Chain. Almost all of the wondrous items from both sets are included.
If you're looking for a 'Best of' from Hero's Hoard and Relics of War, this would be it. Pick up an Item Pack 1 too, and you've got 75/110 of the randoms from Hero's Hoard covered.
And if you're looking for those last few you can't gt in Essentials ... trade!

Although I have most, if not all, of these cards already; I am certain to buy this set when it releases. I love the Item Card Decks. As I was furthering my knowledge of Alpha3, I noticed that the list of Animal Companions had a total of 55 creatures, which is one more than the standard 54 card decks; but includes some Very unusual choices. I would really like to see a deck dedicated to Familiars and Animal Companions; where each animal is tweaked just a bit, to show their connection to the Arcane/Divine; different fur patterns, feather length or colour, jeweled scales, etc. Perhaps a double set including "Improved Familiars"; winged cat, undead dire rat...oh, but one request...as stated months ago; no, unnecessary, boney plates or horns in awkward places.

Still waiting on mine to arrive. I'm a little miffed because this was apparently shipped ahead of Skeletons of Scarwall and while the cards have yet arrive, I got the new pathfinder today. We'll see when the golem shirt ships and when I get it.

I was going through the my item decks to set up treasure for the comming session, and I realized that Paizo left a horrible ommision ...
There are no Chainmail Bikinis in any of the item decks!
Paizo's team needs to get on this right away! A girl's got to be properly dressed, ya know!
I think that's in the forthcoming Erotic Fantasy Fashion Gear Deck. :-P You'll even be able to equip the clothing on the set of Body Cards, the companion deck to Face Cards. The Body Cards are going to be random though, with Shelyn's body being a Rare card and one you'll definitely want to get your hands on.

Any progress yet on getting me my Chainmail Bikini item card? ;D

I'm not taking a pro or con stand on chain mail bikinis, but it might be fun to have one or two cards in each pack determined by community vote. Folks could nominate odd items and the top vote-getter would make it into the pack.
P assume these cards are used or magic items. For example if you get a +2 flaming longsword you can just write +2 flaming on the back of a longsword card.
Question, are these cards reusable (I.e. Can you erase and rewrite on them)?

The back has a large section of uncoated paper so you can write on it; if you'd like to erase it, I'd suggest writing lightly with a soft pencil.
