I'm in AK and got three of my cases on Friday, and should be getting the other 3 today (not sure why they are arriving on different days, and not sure why I had to sign for these three and not the first three when the first package also had my 3-case incentive cards). I thought getting them Friday was extremely fast for UPS to here.
My first three cases yielded a complete autograph set although every card has dinged corners. Didn't pull a complete costume card or prop set, but given the SPs in both that isn't surprising. My 3-case incentives were by Seeber and Shay. I will post full results after I bust my last three cases.

I believe I got 11 props in my first 3 cases...will have to check...may have gotten 12. Only got 2 of the SP props though.

Are we talking 1 or 2 per case? Or is it more like 1 in every 2 - 3 cases? My case will be here in a couple of days, and I want my expectations properly aligned.
Props have been falling about 3 per case in all the cases I have opened so far. The SSP props fall roughly 1 per case but I had a case without one. The prop set will not be easy to complete

OK, I've opened two of my three cases and will post a full break down tomorrow eveing after I've gone through the third one. In the meantime, I will say that I was quite pleased with my first case after finding 4 relics, 12 different auto cards and 16 of the 21 costume cards. However, case two has knocked that into a cocked hat when I found it contained an autographed metal printing plate !!!!!

I contacted Tom at Breygent who told me that there are a total of 22 signed printing plates distributed throughout this release. The breakdown being:
MMAC-1 = 3 SRAC-1 = 4 SWAC-1 = 7 RHAC-1 = 8
Each plate substitutes for that regular autograph card which is why my second case only had 11 autographs.

I've busted one case so far and will post the results later tonight. It seems I have a strange case as I had both versions of all the autos I pulled except for one.

We just finished busting our case. Have to say that we thought the base cards, autos, costumes, props, and lenticulars all look far better in person. The pics looked great, but they just could not do justice to this set.
The "proofs" were pretty cool, except there were some that looked like Monroe had been marking his territory.
Case yielded: GPR-2, 3, 4, 5, and 10 Hit all the big autos: 2 Bree Turner and Bitsie Tulloch R. Hornsby D. Giuntoli S. W. Mitchell M. E. Mastrantonio S. Roiz K. Mitchell B. W. Henke C. Coffee
I have not put together our list of costumes. We did well, and are pleased. No rare costumes, though. Guess that is what makes them rare.
Overall, this is a fantastic product. The prop cards are great. The autograph cards just look awesome in person. Can't say how much fun we had. It should not be legal to have that much fun opening trading cards, but I am glad it is.
The bad part is that I now have to find a way to pay for a second case. Donations can be sent to... Seriously, send your money to a real charity like the Red Cross or the Humane Society. I was joking.
Thanks to the folks at Breygent. You guys knocked this one out of the park.

My case yielded the following :
Three Props : GPR2,GPR4,GPR6.
Eighteen Costumes : GC1,GC2,GC3,GC4 x 2,GC5,GC6 x 2,GC7,GC8,GC9,GC12,GC14,GC16,GC17,GC18,GC19,GC21.
Twelve Autos : Bitsie Tulloch Neil Hopkins Danielle Panabaker both types Claire Coffee both types Sasha Roiz both types Titus Wellver both types David Giuntoli both types.
Looks like I got unlucky with the numbers as most cases seem to have 36 hits to my 33 and I would have liked a few different autos. Still it's a beautifully designed set, I just have a bit more work than I had hoped to complete it.
One question for those lucky enough to pull a sketch (as usual my luck was out).Was the sketch in a pack,on top of a box,or on top of a case?This message has been edited. Last edited by: Triple-Frog,

Sketch was in a top loader as a box topper.

I meant to ask if anyone else got two hits in any packs. We pulled a Tulloch auto and a Monroe costume in one pack. It was our only one like that.
Also, we had one box with two props. One was a page from the Grimm book, and the other was the a variant with stud from the spike club.
Thought both were unusual.

Pretty sure I came across a couple of those too. Mind you, I was more pleased to find a 'hot' box in each of my cases with an auto, a relic and three costume cards

That's cool. I had two boxes with one auto, one prop, and two dual costumes. None with 3 costumes of which I know, but I am not complaining.

Got 6 boxes but saving 2 to open with my kids here are the 4 I opened. I will post those later.
I only had a couple of damaged cards but that was the fault of the post office as it appears they let a tiger handle my box. It had a dessert plate sized hole on one side and the other side was mashed in. Very glad that the awesome binder was not damaged.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Lovemesomecards,
I also have 103 of the plate cards. No complete sets of four, but 5 with 3 of 4 colors. I nice idea, but frankly the yellow cards are terrible. I agree with the comment above about them looking like a stain Monroe may have left behind.

would you rather see 3 out of the 4 colors? yellow doesnt show well

I think the C, M, Y, K, cards are a great idea and hope Breygent do this in future collections.

No, I love the idea. I know you were going for authenticity with the 4 colors being basically the same as a press plate, and I think that is good. I just wonder if they (yellow cards) may need to be manipulated a bit - maybe toned down a bit. Since they are not press plates, I think that would be okay.

Yes, we know yellow doesn't show well. Some ideas work better than others, no need to get offended.
