Still waiting for mine but I expect them to arrive within these next 2 days.

I have posted in the box breakdown section but to precis it from 12 boxes opened 5 costumes(2 Parkman,2 Hiro,1 Isaac),4 sketches(Frampton,Hodges Staggs,Albrecht),3 auto's (Hiro,Nathan,Micah).

Three of the four sketches are of the highest quality,the only average one being the Albrecht which I have put on Ebay.

Let me know if Micah or Nathan autos are for trade Good luck with the next 4 boxes!

Updating to add Matthew Goodmanson and Brian Ashmore to the list. TOPPS reall needs to update their site.

would anybody be kind enough to scan or take a picture of how the sketches look from the back???

thanks and would appreciate it...

My friend pulled a Tony Shasteen Linderman sketch tonight so he definitely has sketches in the product

also i think you need to take Santiago Cabrerra off the signers list. His autograph has not turned up yet...

Jason Palmer confirmed via email that he only did 56 sketches for this set.

Anybody else think that the actual card set is quite nice as well?

Yes, the set is really nice as well. Had fun looking through it. Images were also chosen well.

Yes, the set looks great. They really did a good job. I do wish there was another level or two of chase in the hobby product though.

I was hoping for the Printing Plates. They have them for every other Sports Topps brand...might as well insert them into this set.

oh well, maybe next time

Yes a further level on chase cards would have been nice

Do you eventually find out all the artists numbers? I just won a Lord Mesa - Suresh sketch that caught my eye. I checked his site and he's got great work in his gallery. Be nice to know how many sketches he's in for.

Call me crazy but if anyone has the Isaac shirt card in hand, look at the back.

The picture of the "shirt used" to make the swatch is a green tinted color while all the swatches are white.

Yes, I know theres paint on the shirt but Im clearly seeing white fabric vs greenish as shown.

i've already discussed this on another site.

the shirt on the back is simply poorly photographed. it is definetly white.

I saw this sketch and it has me shaking my head. At first I thought maybe it was a joke, I mean after seeing some of the sketches that were rejected how could this pass approval? Anyone recognize the signature?

The artist is Noah Albrecht. He signed some of his cards with his full name.

My 9 boxes should be arriving on Wednesday. Not sure if I'm going to open them all or sit on some of them. I haven't checked how auctions are going which will be the final determinant.

One thing I haven't seen touched on: have any Tim Sale sketches surfaced yet? I haven't seen any on any of the breakdowns nor have I seen any on eBay yet.
