Originally an Asia exclusive like it's Prizm counterpart, Panini ended up releasing some of this through their website. The format is pretty straightforward. You only get 6 cards per box. You get a Silver Holo, then 2 Choice Exclusive Rated Rookies, 1Autograph, 1 Choice 1 Red and 1 additional parallel which could be an additional Red, or a really hard to find Dragon, a Numbered to 8 Black Gold or a #1/1 Nebula. There are zero base cards so it's a pretty quick rip. It's basically a feast or famine product. People though bought a ton of this and it sold out before the end of the day. I decided to take a shot at 4 boxes. Originally $110 a box, I luckily was able to use a 20% promo code to lessen the sting. Here's what I got.

Of course it sucked. I pulled a #1/1, rare Dragon parallel and Black Gold Rookie Auto and none of them are worth a shit. Cards are nice, but I got destroyed as usual. Pics of cards

Sorry about this break. I opened up a box of basketball (I think 2015 Contenders) and didn't any of the players on my autographed cards.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think part of the frustration is actually pulling GOOD parallels but just the absolute wrong players. It's a major letdown.
