Just opened a case. Pretty disappointed. You'll see why when you read the breakdown.

Autographs:
A1 Shane (A)
A5 Glenn (A) x2
A6 Glenn (B) x2
A7 Carl (A)
A8 Carl (B)
A12 Morgan (B)
A13 Merle (A) x2
A14 Merle (B)
A17 Daryl (A)

FOUR Freaking Glenn Autographs and not one Amy or T-Dog? Come on there has got to be better collation on the autographs.



Costumes:
M1 (x2)
M3
M4 (x2)
M5 (x2)
M6
M7
M8 (x2)
M10 (x2)
M11
M12 (With Piece of velcro in swatch)
M13
M14 (x2)
M15 (x3)
M16 (x2)
M17

So Missing M2 and M9 for a complete costume set. 17 costumes with 24 costume hits per case I would think you would make a costume set from a case, I thought wrong.


But the biggest let down of my case? NO FREAKING SKETCH. I just went back through every single card to see if it stuck to a card or something...nope. No sketch. The cards look amazing, but the collation and the missing hit really turned this case break sour for me. I'm guessing since the odds are just approximate there is nothing I can do about the missing sketch?

No M9 in either case posted. Is this a short print?

I would assume so. Just based on the size of the actress, the shirt used in the card is much smaller than any of the male wardrobe

I would definitely contact Crypto about that. You should have gotten one.

Great color sketch by Gabby Untermayerova:


Overall happy with the results, but it was a bit of a let down to only get 9 different autos out of 16, I think that's something Cryptozoic will look to correct in the future, as it's only it's secong trading card release. The quality of the cards was great, looking forward to future cards from Cryptozoic!

So far they are all getting 12 autographs, but there are doubles and triples reported, which is a packing problem.

Yes, I got 12 autos, but only 9 different out of 16. Distribution could be better, but I've already got my dupes up on the trading section so if everyone is having the same issues trading is the way to go.

My case results:

Costume cards
M2
M3X2
M4
M5X3 (that's right three of these)
M6X2
M7X2
M8
M10
M11
M12
M13
M14X2
M15X2
M16X2
M17X2

The autos I pulled were

A1
A5
A6
A10
A11
A12
A13
A14
A15
A16

That's right...shorted two autos, but hey no doubles.

My sketch was Carl by wu wei.

Very disappointed in this release, and a very poor start to Cryptozoic's venture into non sports cards. Not only was I shorted two autos, but it was hard not to feel like I was pulling the same costume card over and over again because hey that's what I was doing. My sketch card was pretty nice and I was happy that I pulled both Morgan and Glenn autos, but for the most part it wasn't a great experience.

Have to agree - you would expect to get 12 different auto's with 16 Listed

But that assumes that all 16 cards were made in the same quantity, which is probably not a good assumption. No different that the breaks on a Rittenhouse case where some of the autos are more limited and the common ones you duplicates of.

Most people are reporting pulling multiple A-5 and A-6's, I didn't get one but got three A-7's. It may be true for some cards, maybe A-1 and A-2, which seem a bit tougher, but overall the others seem to be out there in fairly equal amounts. Distribution of cards within cases could have been better.

Still would have thought that this should have been better - triples of 1 and none of 7 others is poor, basically this case only had 56% of the Auto's in the set. Other case pulls have 11 or 12 different or 10/10 on the shorted case, so 9 is poor.
