Yes it's a real shame about repeat autos, as half of the autos already annouced are repeats. Also repeats I'm happy to see are main cast.
Still hoping for Amy and Bernadette.
But since autos 1-7 have not been announced I would assume they are the 4 boys, penny, amy and bernadette. Fingers crossed

It would be nice if they did some dual autos or something different for the repeat signers to mix it up a little

In that case Amy and Bernadette should not be as limited as the main five, or the main five should not be as limited as they were in Season 1&2. There were several excellent guest stars in seasons 3&4 and for me none have appeared as signers yet. There appears to be at least two more names to go. I love this show and I'm glad they expanded the number of autographs, but the secondary signers didn't need to be repeated and none of the new secondary ones interest me so far.

I was really looking forward to this set, but this lineup is just terrible. repeat signers of $5 autograph cards in boxes that are gonna cost over $100. Marvel Premier will be better value for money

I'm disappointed, too. They could have at least gotten Wil Wheaton... I know there's a couple of signers left to announce (assuming the first 7 are the main cast), but they seem to be going in order of importance (with old Capt/ Sweatpants at the bottom) which suggests the remaining signers are minor characters. I'm sure it's hard and maybe expensive to go after certain actors, but soooo many great characters overlooked for repeat signers..? And I've already preordered 2 boxes... Am happy to 'see' Howard's mom in the mix, though. Wish there were a few others like this.

Auto costumes look great. Plus Bernadette!

I am wondering if the autographed costume cards are their only autograph card in the set, or if there will be a regular one like the others that are shown on their website? Would be great to have a chance at 2 different autographs of all 7 main cast members.

Awesome auto/ costume cards!
Nah I would say these are extra, in addition to the cast auto cards. I wonder what the insertion rate would be- 1 per case?
That makes the set more exciting, and kind of( a tiny bit) makes up for some of the repeat signers.

I think 1 auto/wardrobe card per case, and at least 3 of the main 7 autograph cards per case would be worth it for me. Hopefully the breakdown will be something close to this.

I think the auto/costumes look great, but I do wish they would use a picture of the character actually wearing that article of clothing. The Bernadette one looks to be the only costume that matches the the image.

That would be ideal, but Cryptozoic can only use approved images and I seem to recall hearing the approval process is pretty stringent. Factor in the limited number of costumes they can get their hands on and it's not surprising that most images don't match the costume.

I wouldn't give up hope yet. Wil Wheaton has signed for for another one of thier sets before the guild.

But they have to use many images for the base cards, can't they find a screencap matching the costume? Unless of course they didn't actually wear this outfit in the seasons the set is focussing on (much like WH13 which had costumes from season 2 in the season 3 set).

I kinda hope the wardrobe/auto card is the only one. At least the set builder in me does. I already can't afford to complete the auto set from Seasons 1&2. It would be a great bonus for flippers and dealers and would give pack buyers more chances at a main cast auto but it would double the expense for set builders.

It could mean incredible value for a case buy though, depending on insertion odds.

According to the numbering of the cards on the cryptozoic website they are numbered A1-A7 so thats looks like they are the base signatures with I'm quiet happy with. I think they will be 2 per case (hopefully at least 2)

There are some repeat signers I don't really care for except the main cast. But besides that I will be happy getting a Danica McKellar autograph.
