Star Wars Revenge of the Sith (Topps)
I decided to order two more boxes after getting the sketch card, so I'm going to wait and see what I get there before doing any sort of trading.

Hey All...I'm Mike Lilly...I'm actually one of the 'sketch' card artists from the Heritage and ROTS line from Topps. I've just recently become a collector myself. I'm really getting into all the Star Wars cards!!! Topps sent me back two hobby boxes...between the two boxes, I got 3 complete base sets (and a mixed lot of extras)...2 etched foils...and 2 sets of the lenticular morphing cards plus a Kieron Dwyer R2D2 inked and a Vader profile from Tom Hodges. Not bad for just 2 boxes.
I also bought the 6 tin set and a retail box just to see...man....you guys are right...lots of cool stuff between these sets....for the tins I got all 6 Vader cards showcasing the images from the tin's lids, a couple of tattoos, a couple of the stickers and 4 Vader embossed foil cards, oh and 4 of the exclusive story cards and one etched foil puzzle card (I think it's card #2).
For the retail box....I got 9 out the ten tattoos, 9 out of 10 stickers, another exclusive story card, a couple of etched foils, one lenticular (a different one from the hobby box) and 2 holographic cards, a clone trooper and a vader...ALL in all just great stuff out of the tins and retail boxes but the hobby boxes still have good stuff too....Smile
Just sharing my collecting with everyone...and if you haven't, definitely try to pick up the tin sets and at least one retail box. It's worth it.

Best to all....

Can only suggest E-bay or similar. You could try e-mailing dealers (those in NSU for starters ?).

Finally, my local card store brought in some boxes of this stuff. I opened two boxes.

I haven't sorted out the foils or base cards, but I know that I got 3 lenticulars, and two sweet sketch cards.

- One coloured sketch from Otis Frampton (I don't know who the character is, but it's a grey fuzzy guy.
- One gorgeous General Grievous sketch from Cat Staggs Clap

I was tempted to open the third box, but I stopped. Maybe i'll buy some more tomorrow. If I can get the sketches scanned, i'll edit this post and add them.

Finally got around to scanning the 2 sketch cards I got from my box. I rather like the Wilkinson sketch.

Opened a retail tin...
3 packs, 7 cards each
1 bonus A
1 expansion 3 of 6
1 tatoo
1 etch foil
3 embossed foils (in one pack)

Like the smaller size tin and bonus cards. Should make for easier storage. Thumb Up

Only three packs per tin is kinda of bummer, dudes! Shake Head

Well, after attending C3 I just had to buy a box of ROTS. Here's what I pulled:

Lenticular Morhing Card 1 of 2
Etched Foil Cards 1 through 6
Sketch: Matt Busch Darth Sidious

It's a nice looking inked sketch.
