I don't know if I would say that was a bad case aside from the fact that the you are missing a few of the auto's and got 4 bilbo's  I would be pretty happy with the 2 Faramirs  At least you got 22 auto's and 11 costume cards overall. You would have been much more disappointed if you had my case and got 12 auto's (4 short) and only 5 costume cards (3 short) and 3 of the 5 were frodo's  I will check what I have and would be happy to do some trading. I ended up ordering another case thinking I must have better luck with that one....anyway I will get it next Friday as it shipped today from Penn. So overall it could have been much worse. There is no worse feeling than spending $540 and being 4 auto and 3 costumes short on inserts. The way I figure that that is a easy $175+ short value wise. |

OOh queue me up on your list for a stable dress and an Ian Holm auto! Let me scrabble around to find something to trade, or will that Triple auto (Ben, Mark and me) be enough ??  |

haha well I have those extras looking for those I need. I would have felt bad if i got your case.. maybe you should call topps and say you got a box with nothing, or 2 in your case andmaybe they would send you what you didnt get. Just what upset me is the insert ratios.. yea some are easier then others but 2 of one 3 of another 3 of an auto 4 of another auto. seems a little crazy to me. oh yea and a triple auto! I cant wait! is it 1/1 or how many are you making? 2500-3000 like the LOTR stars? lets see how you guys feel after signing them |

I so wish there were LOTR's sketch cards! I found a Seller on ebay who produced his own LOTR's sketch cards on a 1/1 basis. I bid and won the one he had for Aragorn. He did a very nice job and I can't wait to get the card! |

Have just busted my first trilogy box. Proudfoot Auto  Gamling Auot Pippin Costume  I was a bit worried my box didnt have three cards in it, the costume was in the second last row of packs, and the Gamling auto was in the very last (Gandalf) pack. The costume was in a Frodo pack. I have a second box, but was hoping to keep a sealed box, so I think I need to go buy another one...  |

I think my pip is a variant-has flat black material, velvet type material, and some gold stitching across the centre  |

Great looking Pippin Clothing Card! Why did they pick this photo of Pippin as he has his eyes closed? Somebody goofed up and did not catch this. I wish they gave you more material in these Clothing cards as the amount seems less than previous Clothing cards from earlier sets. |

I dont think his eyes are fully closed. If you look closely they are slightly open...

He wanted the box back - what an idiot! I would never buy from this joker again and I would let everyone know who he is so we all could avoid him. His offers are insulting and I hope you told him so!
