It's a real shame that alot of the other stars of this classic film
are sadly no longer with us.

ravenheartTerrific news. Just hope the box is along the lines of the Blake's 7 one and has two or three autos per box. One-auto boxes are a killer.

Jason WrightThere will be at least one sketch card in every box

I am surprised by this, her alledged hatred of the film is well known.

Depends... honestly, history tells us most sets that have one sketch per box end up with a lot of pretty poor sketches to make up the numbers... unless Jason's going to tell us every box has an Andy Fry in it, then I'll take that back

I'd rather have more autos myself, and for the sketches to be rarer, but actually all good. Having a sketch or two in my collection is nice, but not at the expense of autos.

XVERY impressed Christopher Lee is on board. Unfortunately he is signing less and less these days.

As others have said, he has a great signature too. not to mention amazingly consistent and legible for a 91-year old.

Don't forget this is a very limited set (only 600 boxes) and yes we have some great artists on board for this set, most are only doing 20 sketches
