Heroes Season 1 (Topps)
Just finished breaking a case I got off eBay for $278 shipped. Here's what I got:

2 Parkman costume
1 Hiro jacket
1 Isaac shirt
1 Claire cheerleader outfit (skirt?)
1 Noah Gray-Cabey autograph

Sylar sketch by Joseph Booth


Peter sketch by Russell Walks Big Grin


I love the sketches! There's another Booth Sylar up for auction right now but mine is nicer! Cool And Walks evidently only did 71 sketches (I'm assuming 65 pack inserted plus his six back) so I'm pretty stoked to have pulled one.

Very happy.

I got my case of Heroes Season 1 and it breaks down as follows.

2 Matt Parkman costumes
2 Hiro Costume cards (Jacket & Shirt)
1 Jack Coleman autograph
3 Sketch Cards (Otis Frampton, Leah Mangue, Tom Hodges)

I checked Otis Framption website and saw all of the sketch cards he drew. I only saw Two Black and white cards and the rest was color. I was wondering if anyone knows if that means it is extra rare?

Heroes Season 1 (Click Here to view sketch cards)

I was a little bummed to get Two of the Matt Parkman costume cards in a case, but pulling 3 sketch cards Especially the Otis Frampton made up for it. I'm still not sure if I want to purchase the second season of Heroes 2. I like having the matching binder for my sets.

Blakely your Frampton sketch is beautiful, congrats! And as for being bummed about getting TWO Parkman costumes, you got three sketches, that's very lucky! I'd swap my one sketch, one auto, and six costumes for your case break in a heart beat. Wink

I said to myself i wouldn't buy a box of heroes cards because of some of the bad breakdowns people got...but gave in while i was at collectormania in mk, i brought 3 boxes all together (the temptation got to me Twak ) heres the breakdown:

BOX 1
Matt Parkman costume Shake Head this is what i was worried about as i had just brought one on ebay 2 weeks prior for 50p!! Frown ah well 2 boxes to go i thought! think positive!! Smile

BOX 2
Matt Parkman costume............. Confused say no more.....

BOX 3
I pulled a sketch in the last box, i don't collect sketches but this one is pretty good! Does anybody know what the card is worth? the scan is below..

I was hoping for an autograph (or maybe 2) but hey i guess the sketch will do Big Grin

Hard to put a dollar amount on it but safe to say it'll more than cover the cost of your 3 boxes. Smokin'

I'm no expert but I think Sean Pence sketches generally do very well.

My fiance won a box at the Card Talk breakfast.

I pulled an Isaac costume - all black version - from it.

That's a great sketch! Congratulations!

It's cool to see a sketch card artist that's also a collector that gets excited about this stuff!

Are you kidding? Someone that doesn't collect cards OR watch Heroes would get excited about this card! Big Grin
I'm just a collector that likes to draw. Smile

Thanks everyone - I still can't believe I pulled it!

I haven't posted here in years (an engineering degree doesn't permit too much free time). But it's summer now and I picked up a box of Heroes just to try my luck (and resume this hobby).

1 Box:
Base set missing numbers 32, 46, 58, 60, 68, 76, 78
Foil set missing numbers 7, 8

and...

Adrian Pasdar as Nathan Petrelli auto Thumb Up

If anyone has extras of the cards I'm missing, please shoot me an email.
