What's Buzz-worthy: I don't do a ton of UFC breaking, but I'm a sucker for cheap bulk lots and one card pulled here shows why there is potential. Autos aren't easy to land here but they are in there. If you buy retail boxes -- same prices as the 100-pack lot right now in the big sale -- you're guaranteed a hit of some type. This release is pretty deep in its checklisting -- some of the insert sets are pushing 50 cards -- and that can help out their value some. The parallels aren't super tough to spot but they can blend right at times in with some inserts. This release is foilboard central with a very Affliction-esque feel. The only drawback there is the font that's used can be tough to read -- so forgive any potential typos on names above -- and that foilboard also comes into play with bulk lots. Sometimes packs can be roughed up a little before they arrive -- and foilboard will show that very clearly. (Most won't be damaged, of course.) The collation of this one was funky -- I probably didn't get more than one set in the lot, though I didn't check that closely, instead just looking for highlight names. This is a very affordable option for a beginner or a collector who wants to dabble on the cheap. Possible finds include Relics with a piece of the Octagon cage -- very unique cards -- and there are a lot of parallels possible, though not in heavy volume. I was happy with my results here and at the price I could dabble again because a rarer card or two will pay for it all.

Product Grade: A-
Lot Grade:
 A (thanks to Hall of Famer ink)
Fun Grade: B
