Autographs/MemorabiliaNone

What's Buzz-worthy: I didn't land a rare (one in 500 packs) Kiss Card this time, but my second box of these delivered huge if you look at the annals of WWE history and events and then cross-check that with the odds panel on the pack. The WrestleMania III Hogan Gold parallel here? That's one in 6,800 packs -- one in 195 of these boxes -- and a big find that could have only happened nine other times out there in the world. While I'd rather have an autographed (or Kiss) card, this one is a biggie, though it arrived with a pair of minor corner tweaks that would probably not make for some top-notch grading. That happens ... I think this was cooler than a manufactured belt Relic, which is what you'll see here in my final two boxes of this one. Why did I rip these? I saw a batch of these retail boxes surface at their absolute original price in a time where the hobby boxes here (smaller) are non-existent or severely premium-priced and their retail display counterparts are also tough finds. Again, why? Well, the boxes may not exist at all any more in unopened form and the boxes are the home to some strong autos, a number of strong debuts and then some other big possibilities. ... This one was right there with my first one in terms of what it delivered -- three copies of many good names -- but not all of them (my images are largely recycled here except for the Hogans and the Black parallels to save some server space and processing time today). ... These aren't super-generous from box to box but this one shows that there are big cards very, very possible. What kind of stuff? Printing plates, autos and more ... some with six-figure odds but they could be in there.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade:
 A+ (a truly epic parallel find)
Fun Grade: B+ (would rather find a hit at similar odds vs. a rare parallel but I'll still take it)
