I was waiting at my comic store for their shipment, and grabbed the box as soon as it came in. Since it's probably the only box I'll be able to get, I was looking forward to it.

Overall pretty happy with my box, although it seemed a little skimpy on the regular inserts...maybe that's just me, it's been awhile since I opened a box. Here's my break:

2 base sets
Hell on Earth H1, H2
Betrayed BT6
Out of Time OT1
Autograph A19 (Lauren Cohen as Bela)
Pieceworks PW2 (Sam's shirt)

It seems skimpy, because the boxes now have 24 packs per box. With a 36 pack box, you would have gotten an extra Hell on Earth, as well as an extra Betrayed.

Ah, that does make sense. It didn't click that there were less packs. Thanks!

You would have hoped that the inserts would have stayed the same. One of the six card set in a box means you need at least six boxes (no Dupes) to get a mini-master set!

it was the same with x files some boxes had 1 some had 2 just depends how the 1:17 works out

Box 1:
-Hell on Earth: HE.7, HE.8
-Betrayed: BT.4
-Out of Time: OT.2
-Autograph: A-27 Travis Wester (Harry Spangler)
-Pieceworks: PW-4A Jared Padalecki (Sam)

Box 2:
-Hell on Earth: HE.3, HE.4
-Betrayed: BT.3, BT.4
-Out of Time: OT.3
-Autograph: A-23 Sandra McCoy (Crossroads Demon)
-Pieceworks: PW-10 Sandra McCoy (Crossroads Demon)

I got my box and binder set today!

Out of Time OT1
Betrayed BT2
Hell on Earth 4,5
Pieceworks PW4-A (Sam Shirt)
Billy Drago auto "I forgot your name too" inscription.

I was hoping for a Sam auto to go with the pieceworks, but I dont have a Drago auto and I like the inscription, so I'm cool.

very nice! I'm surprised that hasn't been more box breakdowns yet.

I know of two collectors who have stopped collecting this series. STICKERS. We collectors are a bit anal in as much as we like things to match. This is why I won't be getting any more "Lost".

I'm still collecting season 3 because I'm not a completist and don't collect many of the autos anyway. I think this is a great looking set, the 9 piece puzzle is the best one they've had since the first set and there are a nice bunch of pieceworks. As for the autos, I think they've done a decent job to make them as similar as they could to the first 2 sets. I was one person who hates sets that don't match, but I want autos from some of the regular people from the show and with a couple of characters, their autos are only available on stickers (Nicki Aycox Connections and Lauren Cohan Season 3).

I do think that this set has crashed a bit, not too many sellers selling the product and due to that, prices haven't really dropped, some cards have actually become more expensive in the last couple of weeks.
I think Inkworks made a mistake going to stickers, but its done now and there isn't really any going back.

Got my box and binder set today and I immediately opened it, just in timpe for memorabilia.

so i am off to email inkworks .
i had said i was only going to get 2 boxes ,i should have stuck with 2 and not gone back for more...lol,nah that was never going to happen .

Is the number on the box the one stamped on the inside of the front cover?
Seeing as they're all the same number, I gather that they are. I believe that the numbers are the packers employee number as well as the date of manufacture. Obviously no one will know who packed this box incorrectly as they never stamped the box.

two boxes:
