Did Kayanan "draw" for this too?

probably the same reason you do, well sorta anyway, see he called me out, and asked me in a sense to defend my position...but really, we gotta keep this on topic here, so lets just end this in the box breakdown, and keep the questions/comments on the product from this point on to the forum appropriate.

Well well well... My decision to buy 2 cases came after reading all the negativity thrown at this set, I did not feel compelled to change my mind and I went ahead and bought 2 cases... and I have just finished opening the first one and it IS THE BEST CASE I HAVE EVER OPENED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

I could not have been more happy with my pulls or the results for this case, I am going to start busting open the second in a few moments, but first to share the glory:

Box 1: (Oh, what a box to start with, I nearly had heart failure)



Box 2:

I need help identifying the card on the right, looks very much like Staggs but I know it isn't, is it a Sohn?!

Box 3:


Box 4:

Anyone know the artist on the left???

Box 5:


Box 6:


Box 7:

Need help with left hand card please

Box 8:



I am going to start opening case 2 now, must say if my second case is full of helmet heads I would still be pleased with the overall results!

Nice full color Molinelli!

Well its just gone passed 1am here, I couldnt wait until tomorrow to open the other case so I just did it now! I only opened the packs until I got the sketches so will open the rest tomorrow and post if I get any extra sketches or gold cards or 1/1's.... :P

Here are the 16 sketches in the order pulled:



Overall VERY happy with this case and my 2 cases have yielded more than I could ever expect. Now to save to buy more....

Bought 1 box today.

Got 1 sketch. Yes, just 1. To pour salt in the wounds, it is by far the worst sketch I have ever seen.

You cant even tell what the hell the artist was aiming for.

Card dude,

Think your 2nd case is average but have to say the 1st one was fantastic!!!! Well done and congrats!

Here's my case break:

Box 1 & 2: Any one know the artist on the bottom right?


Box 3 & 4:


Box 5 & 6:


Box 7 & 8: Any one know the artist on the bottom right?

a few hits:

Sometimes duplication of artist is not a bad thing. Nice cases!!

Well, this may add a bit of fuel to the fire, but this sealed case-break speaks for itself pretty clearly so I won't add my 2 cents, And while I prefer to remain positive, I honestly do welcome the snarky comments of anyone who wants to chime in!
(Here's one to get started: Maybe the Arwen at the bottom is crying because she knows "begun, the Gandalf Clone Wars have!")

Um thats terrible. I am very sorry for you.

The Gandalfs are evrywhere.

So, I had an idea that might make those Gandalf cards worth something!
