In Summery:
out of the 6 boxes I pulled:
36 Gold key Comics card inc 7 duplicates
18 Expanded Univers cards. No Duplicates
6 John Czop Artifex cards and NO Duplicates
12 Autos (inc 1 Duplicate) consisting of 7 Commons, 5 Limiteds and 0Very Limiteds
2 Sketch cards. Just under the odds.

A beautiful set, RA have done themselved proud. Collation seemed better than prevous Trek releases, dissapointed though at not pulling a Ricardo Montalban or a Joan Collins. Still it was always a long shot. and dissaponted also at being 1 Sketch card short.

Just because I can't resist posting a piccy of this spectaculat Martinek Multi-case ST:TOS A&I Sketch card whereever I can.

Nice sketch.

Very reminisent of the animated series Enterprise.

Extremely nice sketch you got there,as usual Warren does not disappoint

Great looking card!

That's a beautiful sketch card. Thanks for posting.

I had the...pleasure of determining who got what in my stack of incentives. Not easy Here's the one I kept for myself.
The blue flare effect is not portrayed well in the scan.

I love the variety of the sketch cards. Warren has outdone himself on this set.

Although I don't keep breakdown records to the degree that many do, I thought I'd note that overall, in the 15 cases of product that I opened, I got no real collation issues. Two VL's in each case (Well, I may have had one case with three and one with one, but it's a blur). Only had troubles with one sketchcard not showing it's pretty face. Got all the others in about the same number which was nice as it made it easier to make sets. Sometimes it seems like you get 10 of one and 1 of another, but this time I got 2-4 of each sketch.
I read aboutpeople who report bad breaks over and over and I'm left scratching my head. I figure with as much as I break, I'd see some of the troubles and yet, except for Enterprise 4, which I ahd troubles with, I've not seen issues with the odds being any other then what I've expected them to be.
Now, there are always pockets of quirks, like I ahd two clients each get 6 boxes...one got 5 of 6 boxes with sketches which beats the odds, one didn't get as many as promsied. In one product, I ahd trouble getting a certain card and yet when my clients starting sending in reports of what THEY got, it seemed like alot of them got the card I was needing, so the cards were THERE, they just avoided ME Ah, the X factor

Ah the X factor

Don't mention the X-factor. I still think Chico should have won.

back on topic, While I REALLY wish I had had the good fortune to pull a Collins or a Montalban ( It's my birthday in february ) and I was one sketch card down, this is such a gorgeous set that I really don't mind as much as i did with the poor return from the Quotable sets. I doubt i will ever complete this particular set unless I'm offered a great deal on an Archive box. But I LOVE the cards I have got from my boxes.
and i doubly the spectaculat Martinek case sketch the Lynne sent me. I'm sure you could have ebayed it for double what i paid.
