Breygent's Dexter Goes Out on a Limb

I've been looking forward to Breygent's Dexter set ever since it was announced several months ago. The first three seasons have been quirky, creepy and highly addicting. The touchy subject matter would make it seem like a risky venture into the realm of trading cards, but Breygent's gone all out for the realease, offering an autograph checklist that covers most of the first two season's main characters, 21 costume cards, beautiful sketch cards and some great prop cards including the two below:

 
  
We now have prop cards featuring body parts. They're fake limbs used in the show, but limbs nonetheless. For example, if I'm opening packs and I get the first one (DPC1) I'd probably yell, I got the card with the foot on it. 
On the hand card (DPC2), the lines of the hand make for one creepy look. Both of the above prop cards are limited to 95 copies. Only a couple have shown up on eBay so far without any completed sales. Buy It Now prices are asking a minimum of $250.
Dexter was just released this week but it appears to be a strong seller. It's limited to 275 cases, which will likely mean that unopened boxes will quickly dry up and send prices north. Boxes are currently going for about $60 plus shipping.
