| Ok, so we have heard about people's best booster pull. But what about your strangest booster or case ever? For example, did you ever got a booster that didn't have a Rare in it? Maybe the case distribution was messed up and you got 3 of a particular Rare. Did you get a mini that wasn't quite right maybe?
The strangest I've heard was someone receiving an Ettin that only had one head! That was pretty funny. Personally though the weirdest thing that happened to me was getting a case that had 3 doubles of Rares in it. It turned out that I had been sent 12 random boosters instead of a factory sealed case so it wasn't that big a surprise. I did get 6 free boosters out of it though so I was pretty happy.
What about yourself?

| | I got 3 cases (factory sealed) with the exact same booster distribution (meaning 12 different rares in a case but the same 12 rares in the other 2 cases too). So I had 3 each of 12 rares, and was missing all the rest. I was not happy about that since most of the time I can complete a set by getting 3 cases. | |

| I got a booster that had a Dwarf Artificer in it with a blank base. I still have that mini.
I got another booster with a Cadaver Collector that's missing an arm. It's still bagged and I still have it.
I got one booster that had the card for a rare but not the rare. Or it could have been the rare with 2 cards. I'm not sure because I didn't realize it until a few days later and I never bothered to check for sure.

| A friend got a Sword of Glory without the sword arm. It was funny because that's what gives the mini its name. I guess it is only a " of Glory"
The same friend then got a Mummy Lord without one of his antennae (or whatever those are). | |

| | "...the Headless Horseman" I received a Clawfoot Rider (still in bag to this day) where the halfling is missing from the torso up. The upper part is not even in the bag, so it's not like it broke off. | |

I need that kind of luck.
I pulled a Headless Xendrik Champ. The head wasn't in the bag or anything. I kept it for a while and called him Ichabod Crane, but after seeing that most people seem to get free minis when they sent back a broken one, greed kicked in and I sent it back to WotC. Of course, I got no extras 
As for cases, I got a case of War Drums that had 2 Wardukes and 3, yup 3 Aspects of Moradin. Blech. | |

| Angelfire case with 2 Mounted paladins, 2 Ulmo Lightbringers and 2 Stone Giants. Not necessarily bad luck, just odd pulls.

| Back before I started buying cases, I went through twelve Angelfire boosters with no Wrackspawns or Dwarf Mercenaries.
I've also got a Quasit with upside-down wings. | |

A blessing.

Interesting. I have one too.

| Large Blue Dragon without the top-half of his head, actyually a lot of interest for the freak on the trademarket. Got a Boneclaw for it (at the time one of my still missing rares), so I was happy.
