Ooh nice one - clearly saving some of the best til last - so in 10 cases did you get a sketch from every artist?

not sure yet Roz but i doubt it I am only opening 8 cases and keeping 2 sealer for now  ;)

but i have pulled a few more good sketches

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v424/chrischidgey/sketch-5.jpg)

I see you are up to my chanllenge of keeping 2 sealed :)

Chris, I take it these are the cream of the crop of those that you pulled??

These are one of each different sketch i pulled i got quite a few the same as some

Hey Gimli
Any luck with pulling any of the autos??
I am after a Hamill!
Cheers

hi richard unfortunately no Hamill but i did pull 2 James Earl Jones and a Carrie Fisher

Chris
That is very good in 8 cases - wish I got splits like that!!
Good sketches too.
Any ideas anyone[ Roz] why I am Wheeler Dealer?

Sorry MPC - that was Mark messing, I've deleted it!

He decided it might be fun for people who were trusted dealers to have it by their names so that newcomers to the forum would know who to go to if things were needed!

Sorry you were used as the experiment  :-[ but it smacked too much of the NSU forum when I saw it! (ouch ) so I dunno - what do you guys think? -  Olly? Dave? Rich? Chris? Zach? Do you want to be identified?

And Rich - if you want to change your username in future just change it rather than adding as a new member and losing your post numbers ;) (all 11 or so of them  ;D)

well i just pulled another sketch so 1 have 1 per box except the boxes with autos

Fab selection of sketch cards there Chris and two out of three on the autos isn't to be sniffed at either!  ::)

Please post the Earl Jones and Fisher cards when you get chance ~ it will be the nearest I get to owning either of them!  :-[ ;)

for your viewing pleasure
these are the ones i pulled today

Oh go on then - if we are going to have a nice complete thread we'd best have this!

A guy who bought from me recently pulled this ... from... (get this) ONE CASE

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/Roz_qmw/HERITAGEHAMILLAUTO.jpg)

Drool away

*whimpers* :'( they are wonderful!  :-[
Wish I had those cards ... oh well, guess I'd better save my pennies for the LOTR Trilogy Chrome set!  ;)

My display of the Hamill auto was too much for Chris - he's breaking another case ;)

 *mwahahahahahaha!!*

 ;D

How did you break MPC - many Carries/Darth's?

OOh... all I have to say is oooh!

well thats it guys it is now a full house i opened another case and last box here he is



(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v424/chrischidgey/luke.jpg)



i need say nothing more

yahhhhhhhh wwwooooooooooo

Are you going to keep them, or try to sell the three as a set?

hmm i don't know i will probably sell them as i need money for potter

right that is it 10 cases (less 2 boxes) opened and here are the last 2 different sketches

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v424/chrischidgey/sketch-6.jpg)

this looks like to be the last one so here it is

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v424/chrischidgey/last-sketch.jpg)

Gimli,
What overall did you think of the heritage sketches?

I thought some were great, some were good and some sucked big time (ie: Martinez and was a little disappointed in Busch)

Looks like you had some nice ones and some crap ones although the auto's make up for that for you.

Unfortunately I only pulled one JEJ auto out of my 3 cases!  Some nice sketches and some really bad ones too.

i have to say i think i did very well i had more nice ones than rubbish. so for me without the autos it was good with them fantastic

Chris, my heartfelt congratulations sir.....of course you do realize that that was MY case!!!!!` ;D

well i ain't sure about it being your case but if anyone is interested i have listed a tonne of sketches on ebay

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/chidgeyscollectables-co-uk_Star-Wars_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQsclZallQQsotimedisplayZ2QQtZkm

and of course as always lots of different things

Could I ask ... with all these fab sketch and auto cards you've managed to pull between you, have any of you got around to collating the base sets yet?

The reason I'd like to know is I would like a couple of base sets to buy ... one for me and one for my son (for his upcoming birthday) and wondered if anyone had any available and if so, how much they would be?

Please email me or message me through here and I can take it from there.  ;D
(I hate asking but I've not seen many up for auction on eBay, so I thought here would be an excellent place to try and find them instead!)  ;)

Thanks muchlie! :D

Well here's a really old thread to gid up  - but I bought some Heritage today  :-\

Some awesome sketches though - quick someone get me a frame to get them up on the wall:

Did you buy boxes or just the sketches?  The Han Solo card is excellent!  I've purchased a few sketches from this set, mostly lower end (well, not Randy Martinez lower end :P ), but I'm really happy with them.

What the &^#( is the first sketch????  That is the biggest piece of crap I have ever seen.

Isn't that Darth Maul?

Apparently it's the Emperor - just his mouth?

You see it now?

Well Mark drew a picture of an Angry Cactus for me - it looks almost the same... but I also got a desert scene with it and it cost me nothing but a piece of A4 paper!

It looks like the yelling thing from Pokemon, I think its called Picacho.

I always think the Teranashi are good value - there's one in the top right, I think they are well drawn and they don't tend to be expensive. What did you collect KBMum - have you got a scan of your collection?

I have only three cards -- C3P0 by John McCrea, R2D2 and Darth Vader by Matt Busch.  I'm trying to collect some of the big characters, picking and choosing while keeping in mind the price.  I don't really care that the artist may have made many of the same sketch -- it matters more that I like the artwork. :)

Man, look at all those cards. I only ever got one box of Heritage.  :'( Though I got a nice card out of it.

Really? From one box? You did very well :D

I know. I have odd lucky. Anything that is not inkworks or upper deck, I have about an 80% chance of pulling at least a fairly decent card, it seems (as my recent luck with Potter PoA update boxes show). But never get me near and inkworks or UD box...I'll never pull anything

That's such a cool sketch! Great luck  :)
