Woohoo!

Gold Chaser-3
Oopsy-5 (Still possibly the best "Mickey" Vinylmation made)
El Super Raton- 5 (I can't wait to finally see this in person...someday)
Checkered-5 (Why, yes, red and black are my schools' colors - and the apostrophe is in the right place)
Monster-4
Who's There-4 (don't judge this one until you have seen the back)
Pirates of the Caribbean-3
Glow Mickey-3
Graffiti-2
Furr-2
Pinball-3
Swiss Cheese-3 (just because it started the trend of food vinyls in Urban series)

41, I think. Personally, I grade them as 3 = average

This is why I thought of this. When you break it down by each design your opinions might change

This was the first set of Vinylmation I ever saw and it was the reason I didn't start collecting until Park 5 was released. I saw them and turned away because there were two that I liked.

Wow, initial scores are low. I hope people aren't only judging based on the front of the vinyls. I can provide front and back pics if needed.

Honestly if it wasn't for the back of Furr it would have gotten a 1 from me. If they had made the back the front and eliminated the orange thing (whatever that is supposed to be) it would probably be a 3 or 4.

I used the VM.com vault with the pics of all four sides to figure out my scores. I really don't think that there are more than a couple figures that seeing the back would help their scores at all.

I've seen the back, and I still don't care for it.

I used the VN.net Released Series....

I saw what you meant.

That's almost like what happened with me! The first vinyls I saw were the gears from the Urban series and I made fun of my friend for buying them. I thought they were the strangest and ugliest little things!

I think a lot of us are using front and backs! I just know for me this really isn't a series I care too much for as a whole, though it does have some really great singular pieces.

I remember buying my first vinylmation case ever with Urban 1. It was a disaster. The downtown disney art of disney location unbeknownst to me was actually selling full cases that had already been opened. When I got home I began opening the vinyls so excited about the oopsy. Low and behold there were no oopsy's to be found in my case and instead I received 4 graffiti's. I was so upset because it was false advertisement and also wasn't cheap, well over $200. I ended up taking the case back to the art of disney in the village and the manager was apologetic but didn't seem to believe me. I filed a complaint with the company and later received a call from the manager again apologizing and saying that there seemed to be a pattern of people having the same problem as me. They gave me a brand new case and the problem was solved, thankfully!

On a side note, when I exchanged the case Debbie working at the downtown disney art of disney was very rude complaining multiple times to other employees that there were no refunds, despite being told by the location manager that my case did indeed need to be exchanged.

Just thought I'd include that story as it's what I most closely associate with Urban 1.
