I was organizing some of my packs/boxes/etc...last night and I noticed I had some leftover packs in one box. I decided to open them knowing I would get anything special. Boy was I wrong. I opened my first pack and found a Christopher Lee auto. Yippee. So I was wondering did anyone out there receive 2 autos in a Wave 1 ROTK hobby box? When stuff like this happens it makes collecting cards that much more of an enjoyable experience.

What a surprise! Congrats.

Not in a wave 1 but I did pull 2 of the 3 auto's from a wave 2 box.

Just opened a box. I got:

Box topper: 2 of 2

6x Prismatic Foil Cards: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

Karl Urban as Eomer Auto

I went to my card store and bought ten packs and got:

prismatic foil 4,7,6
Bilbo auto

Bought 3 boxes at Memorabilia for £20 each, 2 were wave 2:

Theoden, Gamling and Witch-King auto cards.

I also managed to get the 2 different box toppers and a full set of foil cards.

Cheap box (£30) from Donnington,

Liv Tyler auto

I just opened a box that I got a fair price on, but was very disappointed when I discovered no auto in the box The colation was terrible in this box, too.

Base Sets: 1
Foils: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10
Box Topper: 1 of 2
Auto: NONE

I'll try contacting Topps, but I doubt they'll do anything since there are no guaranteed number of inserts per box.

Another cheap box.

Theoden auto (In Black)

Finally cracked and opened a box I got just after they where released. 6 Prisms and the Lee Auto.

Illudius

very nice. god, i want to finish these sets, but i keep buying new stuff.

Just picked up a box on the 'bay:

1 base set and most of a second
6 Prims (2,3,4,5,6,7)
John Noble (Denethor) auto card.

Nice set.

Blair

Wave 2 box:

Base Sets: 2 + extras
Box Loader: #2
Prismatic Foil Cards: #1, #2, #7, #8, #9, #10

Very nice indeed!! 2 LOTR autos in the same box, don't see that very often (except from the chrome set) congratulations.

Congrats Peter cloet! Always nice to beat the odds!

Wave 2 boxes have better odds and most will contain 2 autos

Congratulations Peter cloet!

Just opened a couple of boxes that I got cheap (£20 each).

In the two boxes, I got:

Box Loader - #1 x 2
Prismatic Foils - Full set + 2 spares
Autos - Karl Urban (Eomer) and Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn)
