Open the one box I bought myself for Christmas, worked out well.
A full base with 21 doubles.
CB05, CB07, 2 puzzle pieces, and SB07.
Walker Horde costume (doesn't matter which one ) and M10 Maggie Green.
What made the box . . . A1 Andrew Lincoln auto, never would have got that one for myself.
About those smudged signatures, I'm surprised because you hardly ever see that in a new auto these days. I think the improvement may be because the modern pens used don't blot like they sometimes did before. The ink dries faster and a slight mistaken brush doesn't damage the signature.
The lefty thing sounds plausible, but I can't say that I ever attributed it to that, just figured the card was mishandled when it still had wet ink. I have heard stories of celebrities who have purposely smudged their autographs, don't know why, maybe they think they're protecting their money signature.

Finally done breaking my boxes- was trying to make them last! So I got 6 boxes (Boxes #1-6) from one supplier and 2 (boxes #7-8) from another.
Box #3: A4 Laurie Holden Season 1 M11 Shane's Blue Shirt M30 Walker DMO2 Hershel + Maggie
Box #4: A5 Norman Reedus M1 Rick's Sheriff Shirt M16 Rick's Green Shirt M32 Walker Sketch: Walker by Kyle Babbit
Box #5: A1 Andrew Lincoln M4 Carl's Orange Jacket M29 Walker
Box #6: A8 Madison Lintz Walker M15 Glenn's Blue Shirt M28 Walker
Box #7: A1 Andrew Lincoln M6 Glenn's Brown Shirt M28 Walker
Box #8 A4 Laurie Holden Season 1 M8 Dale's White Tank Top M29 Walker
Full Puzzle set with extras Full Bio set with extras 7 of 9 shadow box cards (1 was double)
My really stoked with my 8 boxes. To pull 2x Andrew Lincoln's, 2x Laurie Holden season 1 cards, a dual wardobe and a sketch is unbelievable. I never have luck with cards. So yeah! Plus it's my first ever sketch pulled. Think I will wait a few months before selling the double Rick, Andrea and sketch to see if prices jump. Now if only I could get my hands on another box at a reasonable price- don't like my chances.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Yellow601,

It had been a long while since I bought a box, but it turned out really, really good! I actually got a box and a half from my local store, and here's the breakdown:
Complete box:
2 puzzle pieces SB06 - interesting card to say the least! CB08 and CB09 - Dale and Carol A3 - Laurie Holden (from season 1, from what I've been reading) M15 - Glenn's blue shirt M29 - Walker horde - with some very nice blood stains DM01 - Rick's shirt and Sophia's pants
Half box:
1 puzzle piece, already had it from the other box CB01 - Rick A5 - Norman Reedus
All together, I am very happy with these pulls, I wasn't expecting too much from the half box but was so thrilled with the auto! And I definitely wasn't expecting 3 wardrobe cards, either, especially the dual one.
Good start to the new year

Wow...that Kezele is insane...best I've seen of his so far, and that's saying a lot because all of his are pretty amazing.

Chuck, thanks for the comment. When I pulled this card I was stunned, I knew this was something else. This is my first G Kezele sketch and I certainly hope its not my last!

Good job! Plus 2 of Dale's tank tops! Those were produced 10-15% less than the other memorabilia cards supposedly and have good value!

Ok, I like the autograph (would love to get a Laurie Holden!) and the costume cards, but frankly, the sketches do absolutely nothing for me. Rotting and dead people are not my cup of tea, so to speak. So the ONE box I got from my order of four will remain unopened until Doomsday. (Unless I change my mind, of course)

I kind of agree with you, but then the whole set shouldn't be for you because its all pretty gross. The Walking Dead sketches that I have seen are almost all well done, including the ones of the Dead. I think you don't buy this product if rotting dead people are not your cup of tea, so to speak.
