Well, 2 more boxes in the last week. Prices seem to maybe be getting better? Not sure, but I just needed more.

Box 1:
Leah Mangue sketch from the Cantina:


Weird, but cool. I got 2 blues I believe.

Box 2:
DUD BOX! No sketch or auto!
2 blues, 1 red, 10 puzzle pieces

So, I'll be sending #2 off to see what Topps can do. Sad, since I'd much much rather "find" something than have to hopefully get it from the company. Frown

Now I want more boxes...

I've got two boxes that I haven't opened yet and now I'm in a quandry as to what to do with them. Open them or sell them on eBay?

(Joe says I should sell them to him so he can open them!)

Sorry for the bad image, but I've got problems with my scanner so I had to use my digital camera...

This might be almost 6 month too late but I am trying to catch up here so here are my Star Wars 30th Anniversary case breaks of two cases I had pre-ordered and one lone box I bought at the local comics shop.

Case #1: All-in-all, it is not a bad break with an extra autograph card but no Gold card
Dave Prowse Auto
Gary Kurtz Auto
2x Norman Reynolds Auto
Christine Hewett Auto
Davide Fabrri Sketch (Dianoga)
Adam Hughes Sketch (Ben Kenobi)
Jan Duursema Sketch (Vader)
Sarah Wilkinson Sketch (Leia)


Case #2: I was debating whether or not to open this and quit while I am ahead but I ponder this for about a month before deciding that I was feeling lucky
Carrie Fischer Auto - Unfortunately, the card had a streak across the card so I sent it to Topps. A replacement card was sent within a week.
Collin Higgins Auto
Norman Reynolds Auto
Otis Frampton Sketch (Jawa)
Katie Cook Sketch (C3PO & Leia)
Gold card #71
Robert Teranishi Sketch (Stormtrooper)
Christian Dalla Vecchia Sketch (Stormtrooper)
Sarah Wilkinson Sketch (Leia)


Lone Box: I saw a fresh box at the comic shop and I could not resist
Peter Mayhew Auto
No Gold Card

Amazing breaks. I opened up 10 cases and didn't have a single one even close to EITHER of your two. Congrats!

wow...you opened 17 boxes, and pulled 6 of the best cards in the set...you did amazingly well, i mean, your literally one expensive autograph, and a bunch of commons, away from making a master set of autographs...wow, great pulls!

Wow!!!

Those boxes were amazing!!! Even if you just bought the boxes at current prices vs. your pre-order you would have come out way ahead. CONGRATS!

If you have any box toppers for trade, send me an e-mail!

Thanks for the love everyone. After those pulls, it was much easier and less expensive to complete the autograph set minus Ford. But I am still looking for the Anthony Daniels auto.

Bought another box to see if I could get a sketch card as the previous box I picked up had an autograph card.
Even though no guarantee that a box would have either a auto or sketch per the odds but figured give it a shot.

Box Topper - none
Base set - 1
Puzzle cards - 1 for New Hope, 0 for Empire Strikes Back, 5 for Return of the Jedi, 4 for Attack of the Clones and 1 for The Phantom Menace
Blue parallels - 2
Red parallels - 1
Gold parallels - None
Autograph card - None
Sketch card - C3P0 by Alex Buechel

The box I got was a little strange with no box topper and more puzzle cards then the stated odds but the other inserts were in line with the odds.
