I forgot to post the results of my 4 case group break for everyone to see. I ended up pulling a blue chip, printing plate negative and a Charles Hall sketch (he only did three).
I opened up 1 case and 2 boxes. I am really pleased with my pulls.
Case: Laura Inglis, Viper fish, has texture and glitter to give it a really cool effect. Anastasia Catris, Stingray Bruce Gerlach, Flying Fish Jessica Hickman, Lemon Shark Jared Souza, Flower looking jellyfish?
Don Pedicini Jr, Beluga Whale Eric Spohn, Great White chasing seal Pablo Diaz, Angler Fish Chris Henderson, Dumbo Octopus Michael Munshaw, Flamingo Tongue Snail
2 Boxes:
John Monserrat, Krill, I love how the krill looks like he is glowing. Mikey Babinski, Great White
I love this set and wish I had bought more to open. Definitely my favorite release of the year. Hopefully they will do a second set in the future.

My single case of The Deep from Viceroy arrived safe and sound earlier today. It even managed to avoid the clutches of those nice people at UK Customs, so no nasty surcharge to add
I got a complete set of chips with three silver and seven black along with two complete Base Sets. Pack 6 also contained one of the Letterpress Printing Plates which was fun to find. Based on the info given by Viceroy elsewhere, I believe this is one of the four 'Back' plates with ink. So definitely a nice, rare bonus find !
Great work from all of the artists on this set. Good to see them all making full use of the excellent card stock to produce some wonderfully detailed and varied illustrations. The following images show the sketches in the order they were pulled. I really liked George Deep's shipwreck.
Anastasia Catris (25)- Common Sea Turtle, Laura Inglis (20)- Goblin Shark Lak Lim (10)- Manta Ray, Joshua Werner (15) - Ichthyosaur Scott Zambelli (15) - Gulper Eel, Neil Camera (40) - ???
George Deep (30) - Shipwreck, Lark Sudol (20) - ?? Jeffrey Abar (20) - Aetobatus Narinari, Autumn Frederickson (25) - Nautilus Letterpress Printing Plate Back with ink This message has been edited. Last edited by: Kevin F, December 30, 2013 12:20 PM

Looks like Solarfly still has some boxes (no cases.) Other dealers may have them, too.

Very pleased with my case . Full set of the ten chips (8 black and two silver) and two sets of the nine card set as well as the following ( some of the pictures are a bit fuzzy as my camera was playing up,in person the sketches are all nice and sharp) :
Mike Vasquez not sure of fish, Eric Spohn Viper Fish.
Dan Gorman Octopus, Catherine Miller Gymnothorax Prasinus.
Alex Patrick Merrill not sure of fish, Lynne Anderson Beluga Whale.
Neil Camera Narwhal?, April Reyna Christmas Tree worm.
Sharon Gauthier Dendrochitus Zebra, Janet Lee Blue Dragon Sea Slug.
This last card is unusual in that the sea slug is raised above the background. I am not sure if the fish is a separate piece glued onto the card or if it has been cut out of the card. Either way very unusual and attractive .
Letterpress printing plate which I think is one of the four backs without ink.
I really like the casino chips as I used to collect the commemorative ones issued by Las Vegas casinos that you don't see so much these days. It's a logical insert for a company based in Las Vegas . Hope they extend it to future releases like the second Space! set.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Triple-Frog, January 01, 2014 10:15 AM
