MYSTERY FOIL PRINTS
New for Series 2 was the inclusion of 'Mystery Foil' Prints with every box. These ultra-rare Giant Art Prints feature either Adam Bomb or Nasty Nick, contain a gold foil 'AP' stamped on the back, and were included (one per box) alongside the Collector Cel Art Prints.
These highly sought-after 'Artist Proof' collectibles are extremely rare, and limited to only four of each Mystery Foil. The breakdown is as follows:
- TWO characters
- TEN different backgrounds per character
- SIX different print-variants per background
- FOUR of each print-variant per background per character
'Background' refers to the unique background image behind the character on the Art Print. Some of these backgrounds are contained in the main release as a Chase Variant, but others are unique to the Mystery Foil Prints. Below is a gallery of Nasty Nick prints highlighting the TEN different backgrounds out there to collect

'Print Variant' refers to a unique finish put on the Art Print. These finishes are visible when light shines on the card; and while subtle, gives each variant a unique look and feel. Below is a gallery of Adam Bomb prints highlighting the SIX different print variations out there to collect

When Get A Grip states "each mystery foil is limited to only 4!" that means there are only four of the Nasty Nick with Diamond Plate Background and Large Dot Print Variant (as an example). Needless to say, there are a LOT of different Mystery Foils to collect!
These were randomly inserted with each box order, and collectors who purchased a case were guaranteed a set of four unique art prints (no duplicate backgrounds/etc)
Unlike the standard Art Prints, there is a protective film on the Mystery Foil prints that can either be left on for protection, or removed for display
Mystery Foil Back (typical)Lastly, the back of the Mystery Foil Prints states 'Series 1'. Considering the characters featured (Adam and Nick) are part of Series 1, these variants were likely created during the original production run of Series 1 as a way to not only test print finishes, but also see which backgrounds looked best
