Well, just a quick scan (not acurate) but it looks like we are somewhere between 8 and 9 cases with only three autographs pulled. Two from non-case buyers.....The James Earl Jones auto is actually falling to an affordible range on "THE SITE" so I may pick one up.

Was never much of a Hamill fan, I think I would have sold it if I had of pulled it.

Oooh!



So, just broke a case... only the above seven sketches however, because the 3rd boxed open yielded a James Earl Jones auto Big Grin Don't normally have much luck with Topps boxes, so this was a pleasant surprise. Managed to also make five complete sets of foils with two spares... will start on the basic sets later.

Particuarly like the Teranishi Ackbar and the Lemos Battle droid, the other are a bit plain. The Hodges and the McCrae look as if they were done in about 5 seconds apiece Big Grin

I broke 2 cases a while ago, but was VERY bitter so I'm only now getting around to posting my breakdown...

NO Autos - but hey, I wasn't expecting any (AFTER hearing the odds which were announced AFTER I ordered my 2 cases, which I may not have done had I known a bit earlier. But hey - I warned you I was bitter Wink

Sketches :

Carlisle Jawa
Fabbri Stormtrooper x2
Leia McCrea x2
Martinez - "I don't know what the heck it is"
Corroney Yoda
Busch Ackbar x2
Busch Greivous
Busch Obi-Wan
Busch Jabba
Trevas Darth Maul (Nicest of the bunch)
Hodges Sandperson
Parsons Emperor
Teranishi ??? I'm sure Rob knows, but I don't.

And yes, for those of you counting - that was 5 Busch's out of 16 boxes, 4 of them in 1 case, so HALF the sketches in one case were Matt Busch Frown I am thankful that they weren't that Martinez person --- I can't even figure out what he's drawing - one I saw at Philly looked like an ink blot from the Rorshach test...

Someone should do a summary of all the brakdowns in this thread. It would be interesting to see the totals for each artis so far. Just curious becuse I skimmed through to see how many Kayanans were pulled and only found 1 besides mine.

Gimli,

May I ask what you are going to do with approx 108 base sets???

I beleive the hoth Han Solo isd by Ryan Benjamin

and I am going to sell all those base set in probibly 2-3 months time because it is going to take me forever to sort all those cards. It seemed like a good idea when i bought them now it just feels like too much like hard work sorting them Wink

I opened 10 cases all together and pulled a few more different sketch i particularly like the death star

I just helped a friend open 3 cases of these and we didn't get one stinking autograph. Lots of @#!$%!%^ Randy Martinez sketches, though.

I'll see if he'll let me borrow and scan the sketches.

I opened up a case. I am very happy with my case distribution. I got an auto, and seven different artists who drew seven different sketches.

I have not collated the base sets yet, but I got 5 sets of etched foils.

Here are my autos and sketches:

Carrie Fisher auto:

Nice Vader sketch, Han does look a little like Padme, though.
