What's Buzz-worthy: After just two blasters of this one, I'm pretty sure I have a complete set of this sequel to the 2018 Volume 1. This recently arrived at retail they have a slightly different feel but some of the same unusual and varied possibilities as the previous release. The cards I didn't land last time do add some star power with Drew Brees, Ray Allen and Darrell Waltrip among them -- more modern and mainstream guys that help flesh this one out pretty well. (No Babe Ruth this time ... he helps a little, too.) ... Possible hits here include autographs, memorabilia, original art cards, cut signatures, sketch cards and Grand Patch pieces. ... This is a tiny set with numbering that picks up where the first series left off and the cards are nicely printed on retro-style, gloss-free stock. For the price, this is a decent break with potential if you are lucky as there are some strong possibilities -- click here for the First Buzz preview. If you want a better chance at the bigs, rip into a hobby box for sure where you get at least three and likely four hits and then the basic cards are a lot rarer than their retail counterparts.
Product Grade: A- (set size seems small and these boxes are tiny ... but overall inclusions are good)
Box Grade: B- (about the same as last time but the modern-player hit isn't as interesting)
Fun Grade: B
