Every year when my kids come home from the last day of school, I give them some small presents to celebrate the end of the school year. Since my daughter is a HUGE High School Musical fangirl, I picked up a few cards.

HSM Troy's Golf Uniform $1.58
HSM Chad's Golf Uniform $0.99
UD Spectrum Baseball Matt Prokop auto (minor character in HSM3) $0.99

I'm still on the hunt for Chad/Corbin Bleu auto and costume cards from Donruss Americana.

And for me, a Battlestar Galactica CC32 William Adama costume card $1.04.

Two new additions to my collection (from the same seller; £3.19 for the pair plus very reasonable postage!);
Another Hobbit sketch by Otis Frampton (not sure which Hobbit - the consensus of opinion for the last one I had was Sam - any thoughts on this one?):

and another T'birds sketch (by James Ramsey):

which is the fourth of the 7 artists who contributed to this set.

I've had 2 recent great pulls -

Not a huge pull, but I was made very happy today! The only U.S. James Bond set released in the last 20 years that I had not started was Connoisseur's Vol 2 - the 70's. I finally got a box at a really good price, and pulled a G2 Goldenworks card out of the very first pack I opened.

A much more awesome pull was a couple months ago - I purchased a lot of 30 loose hobby packs of Planet of the Apes (2001) for $9.99 including shipping expecting that I could pull a base set and a good number of foil chase as a start to this set. I figured these were leftovers from a case cracker who already took the good stuff, so imagine my surprise when I pulled a Thade's Father costume card from one of the packs!

Well....nevermind then

What did Topps do, keep all the good boxes to themselves?? I can't believe you got 4 sketches out of 6 boxes, I bought in total 15 boxes, including 1 case and only found 1 sketch out of all of them. Not only that you got a Pence sketch and a costume/auto. That is amazing good luck. Congrats!
