Here's my 2nd case pulls which were kinda a letdown as compared to the 1st case where the sketches are of a high quality. I got 2 autos (nice but got a duplicate Ando), 2 sketches and 4 costumes (2 of Parkman).

I think the Niki/Jessica sketch is from William O'Neill. There's one on ebay looking almost the same.

I got 1 of my 2 cases in the mail today. A bit confused since I ordered 2 from the same source and it is odd they didn't show up together. Hopefully the other 1 arrives tomorrow. I won't say how but it didn't take long to figure out exactly where to find the auto/sketch/costume card in the boxes after I opened 1. I have all 8 of my "hits" from this case and I still have just under 7 full boxes worth of unopened packs.
Box 1- Edward Pun Niki sketch Box 2- Lord Mesa Claire sketch Box 3- Adrian Pasdar auto Box 4- Matt Busch full color Claire sketch. Looks to be part of a multi card panel as it only shows the upper left quarter of her face. Box 5- Hiro's shirt costume Box 6- Parkman's police costume Box 7- Parkman's police costume Box 8- Milo Ventimiglia auto
3 Sketches, 2 autos and 3 costumes. So glad I beat the odds on the number of costume cards.
Scans coming tomorrow most likely.

Weds I had stopped at a shop and they had just got theirs in, I ripped through 13 packs before I got the hit-
After getting that, I knew that chances are the 2 boxes he had left were from the same case and my odds of another auto were tough but I got em anyhoo-
Im just glad they werent Parkman.
I have 4 boxes being held for me but I may extend them and put em on layaway because I thought about it and Id rather go after sketch cards as they show up and worry about autos later since those will be the more common thing to get vs a nice Hiro sketch card.
I got my one box today. The funny thing is, I ordered this in August before the new season started but I totally hated season 2 and lost all interest by the time the release date rolled around. C'est la vie, I guess. I wish I would have put the money into another box of OOTP Update.
I pulled 8 of the foils (missing 3 + 4) and the common Parkman costume.

I had time to do some scanning, here are the 8 hits from my case. That Busch is definitely part of a multi card panel:
