The autographs may get most of the love (and deservedly so), but the 2008 Iron Man Costume cards aren’t too bad either. The 17-card checklist includes wardrobe worn by much of the main cast.
The set actually encompasses just seven characters. That’s because the biggest have multiple cards. Robert Downey Jr., Jeff Bridges and Gwyneth Paltrow each have three cards.
Although Rittenhouse did not release full print run details, the 2008 Iron Man Costume cards have a couple of short prints. The toughest is a Obadiah Stane (Bridges) card with a piece of his tie. Classified as “Very Limited” by the card maker, it has between 200 and 300 copies. A Pepper Potts (Paltrow) card with a bustier worn by the actress has 300 to 500 copies and is considered to be “Limited.”
Specific odds on the weren’t released. Rather, Costume cards are grouped together with Autographs and Sketch Cards to land 1:12 packs, or two per 2008 Rittenhouse Iron Man box.
