Nice pulls, Joanna, I had a decent case also, Michael Caine and Liam Neeson autos in my case, plus both costumes and the tire. My Neeson was signed in pen, which looked a little odd, but upon checking other images they all seem to be in pen. On the down side, I also picked up a box of X-Files Connections and got no auto card, which put a damper on my otherwise good card day. Batman rules!!

Wow Eek you guys are having some great luck with these.

There's a big comic con coming next week here in NC. I hope some dealers have boxes of these.

Had to order my hobby boxes online so I haven't gotten them yet Frown

But I couldn't stand the wait anymore and bought a mini box! I got:

1 Hologram
1 Embossed Foil
3 stickers
2 tattoos

And only 1 duplicate common card so overall was pretty happy.

Hopefully I do as well in my hobby boxes as you all have!

Well I got my cases in yesterday. I've opened one so far and still working on the second. In the first I got"

AUTOS:Murphy and Holmes
PROPS:1-Tire and 7-Capes

I also noticed that certian cards were hard to find. For me it was #7 and #78. I had to get to box #7 before I had a complete base set.

I had problems with damaged cards preventing me from making a lot of sets. I think I've collated 3 sets so far and hope to do a couple more, just in case anyone wants one Smile

You can send damaged cards back to Topps and I do believe they will replace them!

xtime, there are Bonus Cards in the blister packs ? Where can you find these ? How many different ones are there ?

I have seen the Star Wars bonus cards, but not the Batman ones.
