Not Great

So, just finished the case. Got one set of stickers per box, amd only two sets of battle Motion from my case (missing two cards for a third, I'll put my spares up for trade shortly)

The sketches... not great, as the title said. I'll scan shortly, but here's the rundown:

2 x Corroney (C3PO Head shot)
2 x Joe McCrea (C3PO *again* Big Grin)
1 x Fabbri Palpatine
1 x Mhan Palpatine

The last two sketches do make the exercise worthwhile, especially as the artist I wanted hasn't really produced cards to be proud of...

1 x Paul Rudish "whistling" R2-D2
1 x Teranishi Palpatine

Now, I have to admit I would have liked an Armidala or something others than droids and Imperial Leaders... Big Grin

So, this means I have two cards for trade: 1 McCrea 3PO and a Corroney 3PO...

I picked up a box today just because I had had to try at least 1 box of it.

11 stickers
4 motion cards
1 sketch- Kit Fisto by McCrea. Pretty nice, seems to be a little more detailed than most.

The sketches from my case:

McCrea: C-3PO (x2)
Corroney: Battle Droid
Fabri: Battle Droid

Mhan: Yoda
Mhan: Yoda w/ Lightsaber

Wheatley: Obi Wan
Kayanan: Amidala

2 Mhan Yodas, and 2 McCrea C-3POs is disappointing.

My lone box arrived today and I've got to say I'm happy.

2 complete sets
1 sticker set plus two extras
4 Motion

And the sketch:
Rudish Ben Kenobi - my first sketch, which I'm unfortunately going to have to part with because the day after I paid for the box my wife informed we'll have a bundle of joy in the new year.

I picked up a few packs at the store I bought my box and pulled a Fabbri sketch. I kinda like these cards, I'm almost tempted to keep them.

I managed to snag the last box from the store where I got my previous box and boy am I glad I did since I pulled a Kayanan R2 D2 sketch! Big Grin

I should be able to scan it tomorrow.

I had my Kayanan sketch scanned today. Not a bad R2D2. Cool

Pretty nice sketch there Drool

- Kayanan is the last one I'm after - I have at least one from everyone else, but for some reason Kayanan is eluding me...

Thanks, I'm quite pleased with it. I'd offer it up for trade but the only card I need of comparable value also happens to be my "Holy Grail" card which I just can't seem to find.

On a side note, has anyone noticed that there are virtually no R2D2 sketch cards by any of the artists? I just went through all 166 sketches on ebay and only 1 of those is R2D2 and there is also only 1 in this breakdown thread (not counting mine). Is it maybe harder to draw R2D2 than the others?
