Thanks! But that Chung watercolor is a much tougher pull, about 1 in 15 cases!

That would be Tom Hodges.

For the bottom right, it is not only Gabe Hernandez, but also Chachi Hernandez!
nice one!

Opened a case

Autos
Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark
Faran Tahir as Raza
Clark Gregg as Agent Phil Coulson


Brian Kong, Steven Miller
Brian Denham, Grant Gould

17 Costume cards - at least 1 one of each except one of the Tony Stark ones (jacket, I think).
.


2 of the James Rhodes ones seem to have the same image. I think the top one is the t-shirt and the bottom one the jeans.
I was happy to get both the Obadiah Stane tie and the Pepper Potts bustier in one case.

Great case break Raj

Nice case Raj!

Two boxes opened resulted in the following:

Casting Call 5, 6, 7, 8
Archives 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9
Armored Hero 1, 2 (man are these nice!)

Box 1 Hits

Tony Stark Shirt

Looks to be a part of a multi panel Cat sketch

(can't be sure as scans are not available anywhere).

needless to say, I am quite pleased with this 2 box investment.

Great pulls everyone! Just got back from seeing the movie.

I advise all of you to stop drooling over your sketches and autos for a few hours (not drooling on sketches & autos will keep the ink from smudging too) and SEE THIS MOVIE! WOW!

I'm neither a hardcore Iron Man or comic book fan, and I was floored at how exceptional this movie was. This is now my favorite comic-based movie (at least until Dark Knight comes out).

10/10

The sketch cards seem to be uniformly excellent. Congratulations, everyone!

-Bob-

Just spent the last few hours slowly opening a case...

Autos 5 of 7 (guess which two I'm missing)
Terrence Howard
Shaun Toub
Faran Tahir
Clark Gregg
Jon Favreau

Sketches
2--was Hoping for more, but was sweating it--the last one was in the last pack of the last box that was opened!!
Grant Gould--Comic version Of IM
Brian Kong--Movie Version of IM
(I'll post Pic once camera battery is charged)

Costume 17 of 17
Pulled EXACTLY 17 costume cards
The presumption is that the Rhodes Shirt & Jeans are on a card w/ the same picture

Armored Hero
Complete set 1-9
4-6 extras

Casting Call
2 2/3 sets (missing Downey, Bibb & Gregg for 3rd set)

Iron Man Archives
4 complete sets

GO see the movie--I saw it Thursday night.
Even though I'm slightly Biased (Shellhead is my FAVORITE character), it is one of the best Comic movies ever created.

Congrats on the case break Raj

Armoured Hero - H7

My box had Downey and Bridges shirts.

Anyone else notice card number nine in the set is numbered 9 and not 09? I only pulled one from my box, so I don't have another to compare it to, are they all like this? The first eight cards are #ed 01, 02, 03, 04, etc...

Ted i noticed that and card #39 has TO spelt like (toh)

I haven't read the card backs yet as I don't want to spoil the story before I see the movie but I'll have to check for that...

Ted,

They are all like that. Maybe to distinguish it from card #6.

I noticed the "9"/"09" numbering and the "toh" spelling error too when I was opening my boxes. The only reason I can think of is that "09" would not fit in the circle for the card number.

One odd thing about the base set is that it is only 70 cards, rather than 72. It looks like a couple of story cards are missing (before the behind-the-scenes cards).

I found that curious as well.
