Yes, there is a set. It has already been released.

Although, there are lots of variations of costumes, and not chase sets.
Enjoy -- Chris :D

Yeah but I haven't been able to find you a good link - they are as bad as Artbox ;) maybe if you ask Sketqueen nicely she'll post a few pics of the cards she has

I had a peek at some on Ebay - the costumes are the only chase cards (ode to a Ioan Gruffudd auto card :'( ). Not too much variation so far... 2 words

"Flight suit" ;)

They have heaps of versions of each character... Ms Alba (whose cards are predictably going for big money) has 3 variations of her flight suit! ;D

Invisible Woman (Jessica Alba) flight suit version 1 (/299). Looks like the rare one! The other rare one also /299 is a Thing one, but I couldn't find one...

Invisible woman flight suit version 2 (/349)

Hmm the 4 covers up most of the swatch. It would be cool if it was open in the centre of the 4 - which it looks like it is on some of them but then again not on others... maybe Joanna might fill us in - has anyone else gone for these? The film's not out here yet.

how comes some of the cards give the actors name and some don't does this mean that only the ones with the actors name were actually worn by them

No idea... but then again, I don't understand why they needed so many replications of the one costume... it stinks of the idiocy of the PoA Harry black cloaks /100, /500 and /750 again :P It sucks - its most likely the same cloak, but the prices are astronomically different for what is basically diferrent pictures on the card >:D

I think this set is really dull especially in comparison to Batman Begins.  No autos and the costume cards are as lame as the first X-Men costume cards.  Plus the fact, nobody has seen the film yet so if it's a dud, the price of these cards will plummet.  Wouldn't want to be in a position where I'd spent loads on the more rare examples and then see them drop in the value because the film's a stinker.  That said, the trailer looks excellent but they always put the best bits in the trailers to drum up interest.

Nope - it's solid to my recollection. I think the die-cut looks cool, so I'm not terribly bothered by it, but in general I do like to touch the cards :)
