Open the one box I bought myself for Christmas, worked out well.

A full base with 21 doubles.

CB05, CB07, 2 puzzle pieces, and SB07.

Walker Horde costume (doesn't matter which one Big Grin) and M10 Maggie Green.

What made the box . . . A1 Andrew Lincoln auto, never would have got that one for myself. Clap

About those smudged signatures, I'm surprised because you hardly ever see that in a new auto these days. I think the improvement may be because the modern pens used don't blot like they sometimes did before. The ink dries faster and a slight mistaken brush doesn't damage the signature.

The lefty thing sounds plausible, but I can't say that I ever attributed it to that, just figured the card was mishandled when it still had wet ink. I have heard stories of celebrities who have purposely smudged their autographs, don't know why, maybe they think they're protecting their money signature. Roll Eyes

Finally done breaking my boxes- was trying to make them last!
So I got 6 boxes (Boxes #1-6) from one supplier and 2 (boxes #7-8) from another.

Box #1:
A13 Laurie Holden
M12 Andrea's Striped Top
M31 Walker

Box #2:
A12 Greg Nicotero
M27 Daryl's Jeans Smile
M28 Walker

Box #3:
A4 Laurie Holden Season 1 Dance
M11 Shane's Blue Shirt
M30 Walker
DMO2 Hershel + Maggie Smile

Box #4:
A5 Norman Reedus Luv You
M1 Rick's Sheriff Shirt
M16 Rick's Green Shirt
M32 Walker
Sketch: Walker by Kyle Babbit Bouncey

Box #5:
A1 Andrew Lincoln Big Grin
M4 Carl's Orange Jacket
M29 Walker

Box #6:
A8 Madison Lintz Walker
M15 Glenn's Blue Shirt
M28 Walker

Box #7:
A1 Andrew Lincoln Big Grin
M6 Glenn's Brown Shirt
M28 Walker

Box #8
A4 Laurie Holden Season 1 Dance
M8 Dale's White Tank Top
M29 Walker

Full Puzzle set with extras
Full Bio set with extras
7 of 9 shadow box cards (1 was double)

My really stoked with my 8 boxes. To pull 2x Andrew Lincoln's, 2x Laurie Holden season 1 cards, a dual wardobe and a sketch is unbelievable. I never have luck with cards. So yeah! Plus it's my first ever sketch pulled.
Think I will wait a few months before selling the double Rick, Andrea and sketch to see if prices jump.
Now if only I could get my hands on another box at a reasonable price- don't like my chances.

It had been a long while since I bought a box, but it turned out really, really good! I actually got a box and a half from my local store, and here's the breakdown:

Complete box:

2 puzzle pieces
SB06 - interesting card to say the least!
CB08 and CB09 - Dale and Carol
A3 - Laurie Holden (from season 1, from what I've been reading) Elephant
M15 - Glenn's blue shirt
M29 - Walker horde - with some very nice blood stains
DM01 - Rick's shirt and Sophia's pants Clap

Half box:

1 puzzle piece, already had it from the other box
CB01 - Rick
A5 - Norman Reedus Luv You

All together, I am very happy with these pulls, I wasn't expecting too much from the half box but was so thrilled with the auto! And I definitely wasn't expecting 3 wardrobe cards, either, especially the dual one.

Good start to the new year Thumb Up

Lovemesomecards - Thanks for liking the sketches. Yes they are really awesome. First I thought that if I pull a walker sketch I´m going to sell it, but I really like this one so I´m going to keep it. I hope You get some great cards from Your boxes!

Flagcitycollectibles - Thanks for the R Hendrickson sketch, its just amazing. Yeah, I got lucky on getting a sketch from only 2 boxes.

Chuck, thanks for the comment. When I pulled this card I was stunned, I knew this was something else. This is my first G Kezele sketch and I certainly hope its not my last!

Good job! Plus 2 of Dale's tank tops! Those were produced 10-15% less than the other memorabilia cards supposedly and have good value!

Ok, I like the autograph (would love to get a Laurie Holden!) and the costume cards, but frankly, the sketches do absolutely nothing for me. Rotting and dead people are not my cup of tea, so to speak. So the ONE box I got from my order of four will remain unopened until Doomsday. (Unless I change my mind, of course)

I kind of agree with you, but then the whole set shouldn't be for you because its all pretty gross. The Walking Dead sketches that I have seen are almost all well done, including the ones of the Dead. I think you don't buy this product if rotting dead people are not your cup of tea, so to speak.
