Don't have mine yet, but Topps updated their site with the odds & I thought it was more appropriate in the breakdown area: THE LORD OF THE RINGS - EVOLUTION SKETCH ARTIST LIST INDIVIDUAL SKETCH ARTIST ODDS APPROXIMATE ODDS PER PACK OF FINDING SPECIAL INSERT CARDS: SKETCH CARDS OVERALL – 1:14 LEVEL A - 1:32 Christian Della Vecchia Davide Fabbri Howard Shum James Hodgkins Otis Frampton Paul Gutierrez Randy Martinez Thomas Hodges LEVEL B - 1:346 Brent Woodside LEVEL C - 1:70 Amy Pronovost Brian Rood Cat Staggs Dan Parsons Jake Myler Robert Teranishi Tom Mandrake LEVEL D - 1:111 Cynthia Cummens Dan Norton Jeff Chandler John McCrea Joseph Booth Ray Dillion Sarah Wilkinson LEVEL E - 1:93 Allison Sohn Dave Dorman David Rabbitte Dennis Budd Grant Gould Juan Carlos Ramos Mary Mitchell Michael Duron Rafael Kayanan Renea De Liz Russell Walks Scott Erwert William O’Neill LEVEL F - 1:209 Chris Eliopoulos Gabriel Hernandez Jan Duursenna Jeff Zapata Joe Corroney Justin Chung Matt Bush Mike Lilly Monte Moore Rich Molinelli Ryan BenjaminThis message has been edited.

So if I am reading this right. You have your NORMAL Scetch Card that comes 1 in every 14 Packs. Then you have LEVEL A that comes 1 in every 32 Sketch Cards? Not Packs THen you have Level B that comes 1 in every 347 Sketch cards Then Level C that comes 1 in every 70 sketch cards and so on? Correct? ____________________ *** Owner of 258 West Authentic Signatures - Like us @ www.facebook.com/TwoFiftyEight | |||

I presume it means that for every 32 packs you open you should get a level A of whichever artist. | |||

almost. There is no Normal sketch. You get 1 sketch every 14 packs. So, you will get a sketch every 14 packs but it will be from one of the different levels. | |||

Yes - so for every 32 packs you should receive one from level A, for every 209 packs you should get an artist from the top level - F or whatever. Either way - every 14 packs on average you hit the jackpot - which should mean no 'dud' boxes ;D | |||

I'm really glad I got a case of this now. A little simple math- 8 boxes at 24 packs per box= 192 packs 1 sketch per 14 packs divided into 192 packs = 13.71 sketches per case, way better than the 1 per box I was expecting. ____________________ "Man muss entweder der Hammer oder der Amboss sein" (you must be the hammer or the anvil) -Goethe Ad pulchritudinem tria requiruntur: integritas, consonantia, claritas.

The odds with the artists. You need to multiple the ratio by the number of artists in each level. So this is what the true odds are: Level A: 1:256 Level B: 1:346 Level C: 1:490 Level D: 1:777 Level E: 1:1209 Level F: 1:2299 | |||

so to get one of each sketch by the odds you would have to open 225 boxes (over 28 cases)??? ____________________ ------One card is never enough. Please give generously.----- | |||

Or just buy most of them from that auction site. ____________________ I'm looking for colored "Robots the Movie" sketch cards by Inkworks. http://www.comicartfans.com/Ga...etail.asp?GCat=25744 | |||

Excellent it runs from Group A (common) to Group F (rare). Its the opposite to Star Wars ROTS. Do you think Topps try to confuse the punters on purpose? Where are my boxes? How long have I got to wait. I think I am too impatient sometimes. | |||

Mine will ship tomorrow. I really want a Kayanan sketch. | |||

Platinum Card Talk Member |
Me too, but they work out to 1:6 cases so my odds are only 1:6. ____________________ "Man muss entweder der Hammer oder der Amboss sein" (you must be the hammer or the anvil) -Goethe Ad pulchritudinem tria requiruntur: integritas, consonantia, claritas.

As long as I don't get that one particular artist whose work I'm really not fond of, I'll be happy ____________________ Anne Welles - "You've got to climb Mount Everest to reach the Valley of the Dolls." | |||

From what I have seen so far on that auction site it seems to me that the particular artist spends more time on drawing his signature than the actual sketch! ____________________ You wanna thrilla in Manila, you'll be killer bee stung... | |||

Is anyone but me a little concerned about the quality of the majority of sketches showing up on that auction site now? After seeing the great sketches shown on this site over the past month, I had forgotten that far greater numbers of poor sketches were available. | |||

yeah, some of them are raggity, but you get 2 sketchs a box. Id rather have 2 rags then then 1. It still seems like a good box break . getting my boxes in the mail tommorow. im hoping....Russell Walks...Russell Walks... ____________________ Evacuate? In our moment of triumph?

Looking at the Juan Carlos Ramos, it's too bad you only get half the horses face and you don't get a chance to see the riders face. It would have been a huge difference if the artist would have pulled back the scene to have captured both faces. But that's just me being picky. ____________________ I'm looking for colored "Robots the Movie" sketch cards by Inkworks. http://www.comicartfans.com/Ga...etail.asp?GCat=25744 | |||
