Bought one box:

9 Cards Short of a base set
Several damaged base cards
1 parallel
No auto no sketch, oh well i knew this could happen.

I probably won't be buying any more of this set. I am going to write to topps to see if they will replace the damaged base cards, and help me complete my set.

my first case had 4 autos, 1 sketch, so no your not alone. one autograph was john rhys davies at least.

That's a nice sketch, it's a Matthew Goodmanson.

The sketch looks like its supposed to be the "posessed" Indy from Temple of Doom.

Funny thing about eBay, the going price is not really "the going price" until it is sold. I would say the original asking price was $20k and now has lowered it.

We'll see if there is a taker for the car. Remember the first few Harrison Ford 30th Anniversary auto that appeared on eBay sold for $11k before it settled around $5-6K as recent as yesterday on eBay.

Just opened a box today:

- 1 base set
- 1 box topper (P2)
- 1 Philip Tan auto
- 2 parallels #89 (458/500) & #22 (252/500)

After pulling the auto early, it was kind of fun to open the remaining packs in search of that extra auto or sketch. No such luck though...maybe next time =)

I've got two boxes incoming. Yay! I hope I get something nice. Looking forward to busting them.

Here is a quick video of some of my hits from several cases. I had doubles/triple of some of the autos. The sketches were a very tough.
I hope you enjoy the video.
