hammerGame of Thrones Season 7 (Rittenhouse, 2018)
2 Boxes
Autos
Indira Varma as Ellaria Sand
Sara Dylan as Bernadette
Danny Kirrane as Henk
Sebastian Croft as Young Ned Stark
Nothing exciting or enough to justify the cost
Regulation Quotes and Relationships plus a Beautiful Death Poster Art BD62
Did beat the odds on the following:
Winter is here W5 (expensive subset to put together) (1:144 packs)
Metal expansion set No.104 (1:96 packs).
Would have preferred a better auto selection but hey one day the gamble will pay!!!!

WOW, that's what still makes box buying the kick it is. Congrats on an awesome pull.

Don NortonThank you Raven. Yes, this is my second Rittenhouse sketch, got a Star Trek one several months ago.
The autos are okay, was sweating the first box, I had taken all the packs out of the box and stacked them up, and autos were in the last 5 packs. I did like thatmy 2 Gold parallels were Melisandre and Grey Worm...

Don NortonSorry, the old scanner and new computer aren't on speaking terms.
I was mistaken when I said it was a naval battle scene, it is in fact almost exactly like the base card #12 where the dragon destroys the Lannister army.

ifish73Congratulations on the sketch. I opened three cases and didn't get a sketch or relic.

I don't feel so bad about pulling nothing special in my two boxes now.

Autos were Art Parkinson VL, Ania Bukstein L, Brendan Cowell L and Tim Plester VL.
RA tends to pair a L and a VL in boxes.
Also got a metal expansion in one box and a Winter Is Coming in the other and made 2 full sets. So I think these are pretty reasonable as boxes go. So why was I left kind of blah?

I think the thing with GoT is that it is running its course and the meat of the product is the same with every release. The base set is the same design from S1 and the signer list can only go so far. I was really disappointed that they didn't make the sketches and relics one per case combined odds like last season. To open three cases and not get one card that could be considered a case hit is a real kick in the junk.
The Winter is Here inserts are good looking and were a nice addition. They remind me of the Valorus Morgulus(sp?) inserts.
