^ me too.

Starting to see stuff trickle on to ebay.com, but would be good to see a big break for the variety. 23 sketch cards is slightly disappointing. I thought we might get slightly over the odds, not under. Also a little concerned that if there are only 17 signers across a lot of boxes/cases, then there will be some big volumes of certain signers.
On the plus side, I really like the look of the base cards, and it's great that the parallels are numbered.

18 blue parallels in two boxes, so 9 per box.
Based on the pull above. My calc is as follows: -

There are 350 x 350 = 122,500 blue parallels in 13,611 boxes or 1134 cases. In the case of red cards should be seeded 10 - 11 to a case or 0-1 per box.

Thats my math done!

But of course I could be wrong - there could be retail boxes with different seedings.

^ yes, that sounds about right. I actually thought there would be less cases, probably circa 500-750, so slightly surprised at the higher number, but I guess they must have had the pre-orders?

Quality of the sketches. And so on and so on...

Amazing, as soon as I made the request for the pictures up they come. Sorry, took a long time loading!

^^^ this is great info. thanks @Breygent. Can you post the auto's and sketches too?
What is your honest opinion of the set/breaks? Were you happy with the overall quality of the cases?
Any gold parallels?

THANKS SO MUCH for sharing tom!

I actually like the patches. I wonder how many different ones there are and if there are variations.

I like the fact the Chewie & Boba auto are both Empire.

I don't know about the patch cards. Interesting idea for an insert but not a "hit" card in my book. I hope there aren't a ton in the set. I like the autos though. Nice hits on those 3. I hope the other 9 weren't all ****.

I have a patch numbered to 30

so do the math 6 per case and 5 cases

to make a set with a perfect break

Perhaps Topps took a cue from Upper Deck and tiered the patches...i.e. make some more difficult and short printed. UD's Animal Kingdom patches are GOLD with Ultra Rare ones bringing $700 dollars and more ...SERIOUSLY.
