What the heck is that sketch of? Holy cow, Jordan can do better and she is in first grade.

Aw. I have a fan.
Tell me, does your first grader also have a little more respect for individuals than you do?



If you actually watched the show you would EASILY know that is Issac Mendez with his crazy future seeing eyes at work. But I guess you don't

Update - I was fortunate enough to locate one of the other cards - only two to go. The quest continues! Welcome to Card Talk, Michael!

Wow, your seller must be making some profits from selling a box for 40 quid!!!!

Unfortunate that you got the costume cards but yes, I would also recommend if you getting more boxes, get it from the same case as the sketches and autos are still there. Remember the number printed on the box flap

Ok, I gave in and got 3 Retail Bonus Boxes and 10 packs from a new Retail box. I got lots of foils, but not even one complete set. Though, like with Star Wars (where I got both gold foils), the Bonus Boxes turned out better. I got 4 lenticulars from them. So I gave in again and got a hobby box. That entire box plus my other cards got me just 1 complete set, a couple of cards short of another, and a bazillion spares. Shock, from Topps. :P

Some people seemed to be getting 2 costume, sketch, or autos, but I only got a sketch.

Hiro's Katana hilt by Tom Hodges



Pros: The cards are nice.

Cons: I have a TON of spares. My Lenticulars are a MESS! They all are super rough around the edges and two of them are splotchy like the lentucular part is coming off, making them ugly. I also didn't like how the pic on the front had nothing to do with the back, usually with no explanation. I opened these with my mom, and since she's never watched it and I missed most of the episodes, you can't follow them very well.

"Oh, that looks interesting!" ::looks at back:: "Huh?"

I have rarely heard of people getting two hits pet box. Only seen it a couple times. Nice hit with the sketch though, always nice to pull something other than a costume from this set.

Finished opening my 7 boxes and got no duplicates, apart from inserts but that's normal Wink
I haven't collated base sets as I do that when I'm bored.

Here's a thumbnail of all of them. Click it to enlarge.



So, from 7 boxes I got 4 sets of inserts, 1 set missing 1 card and another set missing 4 cards.

1 Parkman Auto
1 Parkman Sketch (artist initials LH)
1 unknown Sketch (artist initials look to be MA with '07 next to it)
1 Parkman Costume
1 Claire Costume (white)
1 Hiro Costume
1 Isaac Costume (black with white and a bit of dark red paint)

Even with all the varying posts about this set I'm still tempted to buy another case. A whole one. If there's any still around after I've paid off my other cases I might do that Smile

Your unknown sketch there is by Noah Albrecht! I am guessing it is supposed to be Micah, but of course not sure! Sorry, can`t help you with the other artist!

Maybe the other one is Ingrid Hardy. It looks like her style but I am not 100% sure.

Yes, the Parkman is one of Ingrid's beautiful cards. Nice pull!

I received my case yesterday and opened it today.

I can say I'm extremely happy about it.
This way my first case and it's won't be my last one, but certainly the last one of this serie.

OK, my breakdown:
*lots of base sets & foil sets
*Parkman costume card (2x)
*Isaac Mendez Shirt costume card with a lot of paint on it.
*Hiro shirt costume card
*Sketch of Peter drawn by Grant Gould
*Sketch of Hiro drawn by ??? (signature looks like Oill 07) I will look it up.
*Autograph of Noah Gray-Cabey
*Autograph of Heyden Panettiere Dance

I'm so happy with the last autograph, now that I have it I will go after the other ones to get an autograph master set.

All Costume cards are FOR TRADE.
