Nice thread.

Off the top of my head, my top pulls from a sealed box have been:

Superman Returns - Kevin Spacey auto
BSG Season 4 - James Callis auto - been collecting all BSG sets and finally got one of his cards (just pulled this week - will add to box breakdowns later)
Star Trek Movie 2009 - Eric Bana auto
Star Trek - Complete Movies - Christopher Lloyd auto

That's all I can think of for now, as my other great pulls have been from multiple boxes or case breaks - just as sweet though Thumb Up

The best thing I pulled from the SUPERMAN MOVIE cards was Supe's briefs, with two different fabrics so it's a kind of variant. For some reason I had mixed feelings about pulling that card.
