Edited *** I see Steve have already provided one. You could have a long wait until Topps to post one, if at all!

I know this is the box breakdown thread, but couldn't buy a box as I'm saving for the Wondercon this weekend. Anyway...bought two packs at Target today and pulled Dengar by Jason Sobol.

Here's my 3 box breakdown:
Box 1: Russ Walks sketch This box also had a gold card 3 of 15 #394/500
Box 2: An amazing Cat Staggs Sketch and a Yoda card
Box 3: A fantastic Grant Gould card and an Auto
After 3 bad case breaks from Topps I thought I was done with them. I couldn't resist after seeing the box breaks though and these pulls were beyond what I expected.This message has been edited. Last edited by: LUZNDAVE,

I went in for a case of this, and was not disappointed. Base set is probably the best I have seen in a long time, and the chase cards are well done, too. The sketches are all over the place in terms of quality, but I like that (it makes the chase for the goods ones that much more rewarding).

My two hobby boxes arrived today. Here are the breaks...
Box 1 Lost Yoda card: 1 (416/999) Gold Art Card: 2 of 15 (289/500) Artist Auto: Nelson Sketch: Tar Monevv by Lord Mesa
A pretty good box regarding hits with the Yoda, Gold card and Auto.
Box 2 Sketch: Padme by Patrick Hamill
Easily the best sketch I've pulled in my short time collecting.
General Thoughts and Musings I was lucky to get a complete set of the Silver Art Cards and Foil Etched Cards out of my two boxes, which was a nice little bonus.
The base set artwork is beautiful. I like the style of the art cards too, more so than the LOTR art cards.
Finally, the box was a bit on the large side. Admittedly, it looked nice with the fold-out lid open for retail, but I was surprised at just how big the box was. Reminded me of sports box packaging.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Thush,

I saw there was a sketch in the pack and showed it to my friend first. He frowned, so I thought it wasn't going to be much, then was amazed when I turned it round.

The Target boxes must be a myth... I still have yet to see a single pack.

This box also had a gold card 3 of 15 #394/500
