2002 E-X

Description

Checklist

Base Set

<sql2wiki database="carddb"> SELECT num,player,info from cards WHERE (year = '2002') AND (setname='E-X') AND (num < 101) ORDER BY num +0 ASC; </sql2wiki>

NEXT

NOTE: Card #133 does not exist.

<sql2wiki database="carddb"> SELECT num,player,info,serial from cards WHERE (year = '2002') AND (setname='E-X') AND (num > 100) ORDER BY num +0 ASC; </sql2wiki>

Parallels

Essential Credentials

Each of the first 125 base cards is available in two different Essential Credentials parallels: Now and Future. Each Now is serial-numbered to a production figure equal to the player's respective sequential-number (i.e. card #13 is serial-numbered to 13 copies).

For the Essential Credentials Future set the serial-numbering scheme is more complicated, so, for your convenience, we have listed the production figures for the whole set below.

Also, cards #1-#60 in both Essentials Credentials sets feature a swatch of game-used material.

<sql2wiki database="carddb"> SELECT num,player,info,serial from cards WHERE (year = '2002') AND (setname='E-X Essential Credentials Future') ORDER BY num +0 ASC; </sql2wiki>
