You will find here a few pics, I hope you will like them.

 

Please let me know if you have questions!

If you open them, then it'll be interesting to see how many of the most uncommon series 1 neons (top 10 uncommon) you pull, considering how we believe certain figures were pretty much only released in France.

Very cool. And yes, let us know which figures you get if you open them!

This package has 100% "classical" colors.

 

I opened 10 Monsters so far... here are the results (a little bit disappointing I must say):

 

- Cockatrice: Olive Green x 1

- Hobgoblin: Red x 1

- Medusa: Red x 1

- Ghost: Yellow x 1

- Vampire: Purple x 1

- Winged Panther: Purple x 2

- Witch: Red x 1

- Skeleton: Purple x 2

 

I will update this list in the coming days. I am trying not to open all of them too fast! :)

 

[Update: 21 December: Hobgoblin: Red x 1]

Do these have a hole punch like the Italian ones did? Or is it possible to establish the colour through the translucent portion of the packet? If so, you'll probably find someone has cherry picked all the rare colours.

There is no visible hole in the packets, and I do not think it's possible to see through any part of the packet.

 

As far as I know, there is no "special" color in France, only Red / Green / Yellow / Purple Monsters can be found.

As far as I know, packets with one monster have been distributed in France by two companies:

 

1. Grand V:

- "Classical" colors.

- No Monster Card.

(+ Each packet included a little "explanation card" of the points system - quite useless.)

 

2. Panini:

- "Neon" colors.

- One Monster Card in each packet.

(+ Each packet included a little booklet presenting each of the 48 Monsters, with a photo and a short description.)

 

I had the chance to open 18 Panini Packets a few days ago:

- Werewolf: Purple x 1

- Behemoth: Green x 1

- Cockatrice: Green x 1

- Triton: Purple x 1

- Karnak: Yellow x 1 + Orange x 1

- Bigfoot: Yellow x 1

- Harpy: Green x 1

- Haniver: Yellow x 1

- Hobgoblin: Yellow x 1

- Goblin : Orange x 1 + Purple x 1

- Cerberus : Orange x 2

- Zombie: Green x 1

- Mummy: Green x 1

- Spring-Heeled Jack: Purple x 1 + Orange x 1.

 

I hope this helps...

Yep, straight anyway I can see that the neon Panini packs you opened had some of the more uncommon figures amongst them. Just like we presumed they would.

Thanks for posting the breakdowns of your packs. Does anyone know if the neon colors were only released in France in those single packs? Or in larger packs as well? Maybe the Panini single packs was the only way the "uncommon/rare" ones were released.

 

Also, I don't know if you're planning to keep all those figures, but if you are selling or trading I could really use that neon red/orange Goblin. It is the only figure I still need in that color.

I do not plan to sell Monsters so far, but if I change my mind (mainly if I get a lot of doubles), I will keep you posted.

 

By the way, I updated the post where I detail what I got in the Grand V packets I opened (added: Red Hobgoblin x 1).
