Opened box 3453 with the following contents: 1 base set 1 set of tribute along with extras - t2, t3,t7 stickers - s5, s9, s13 die cut characters - c4,c8 plastic characters pc3 8 foil base cards 1 sketch unknown woman by Joe Rubinstein.
I enjoyed this set especially the base cards. I also liked the large image on the back of the tribute set. I liked seeing some of my favourite images on the front of cards along with the highlights of what happened in Marvel comics in that year. I like the mix of older art styles and new art styles which really lets you see the changes in styles over the years. I've included a scan of 9 base cards I really enjoyed since sometimes the base sets just don't get any love
I finally got me a box, and while I wrote it up nice and pretty on my blog, I wanted to share this lovely sketch card by John Haun:

Congrats on the amazing case!
Was the Andy Price puzzle all in one pack, or in various packs throughout the box?

I had never pulled a wolverine sketch at all before these two boxes, so pretty pleased with the results. I am a fan of Magno's work, so always happy to pull those sketchs, but have not seen to many of Strait's sketchs. Anyone know how many he completed for this set?
