What’s Buzz-worthy: With a new year here, I figured I'd rip into some throwbacks and some go-to boxes from the past, and, well, I'd like to throw this one back. Why? It's not that it's bad ... but I got these same two hits before in a box and I'm pretty sure that's not the only time. And the memorabilia card is one I've seen a few times before, too. Why did I rip this? It's cheap, has guaranteed unique hits and autos that are pretty close to their lone versions being here. The hits are not paralleled here -- a plus -- but the minis are found in a number of ways (six per card) and this box included two of the rarer types and some good names in there. ... Poke around here for more details ... I've busted many.  I've had flashier boxes than this one, but at the price I've seen far less impressive breaks, too.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade: B (I've received these exact hits in the same box before ... maybe more than once)
Fun Grade: B
