Batman
Heroes Season 1 (Topps)
Case # 2:



Not too bad, either. The Walks sketch is great, and makes up for the lousy Albrecht one. The Milo autograph was a nice pull also. More Parkmans, but that was not unexpected.

Hiro Jacket
2 Parkman Police uniform

Can anyone point me in the direction of a retail box or two?

As soon as I find Retail packs, I will post where I found them. I was at Target today, and I did not find any. I will try Wal-Mart and a different Target tomorrow.

It's Isaac, drawn by Michael Duron, and before you get so critical, it's part of a pretty amazing puzzle set that I doubt even a talented first grades could come close to.

Nothing super spectacular, but after seeing some of the things I could have gotten, I'm still happy. Smile
