Well, I had to search high and low to find any info. Roll Eyes

90-card base set
10-card embossed foil set
10-card foil set
2 costumes cards: jacket and pants from Soccent soldiers (screen-worn, amazingly enough for Topps)
1 auto: Megan Fox
Sketches

The retail set also has five Flix Pix Motion cards.

The 8-box hobby cases seem to have one auto, one to three sketches, and the rest of the inserts are the costumes.

actually, the hobby cases can be a nightmare. They are not guaranteed to have an auto, and some only have 1 sketch in them...just a word of warning.

That's not good. Undecided  It's probably easier and cheaper to buy the items on eBay.

On the other hand...it looks like the costumes are inexpensive, sketches are in the $25-$50 range, but the auto sells for around $300.

I thought the sketches were 1 per box.

Thanks Cindy,

I wondered why a 'transformers costume card' search only brought up those two props cards Tongue I hate the auto is so expensive but maybe we'll get luck and it for a cheaper price somewhere else Praying

Nope, it is one costume, sketch, or autograph per box. The costume is usually what you get.

Thanks.  I guess I was lucky to get a sketch card in the 8 packs I bought at my regular comic shop.

I bought a box on a whim as I grew up with Transformers but I was bit underwhelmed, got the costume card which is exactly what I didn't want. I'm not sure why I bothered really, the sketches are fairly unattractive bar a few but the autograph is quite appealing, it's just opinion but it felt like a missed chance on what could have been a great set.
