What's Buzz-worthy: As said before, Patrick Mahomes' presence here is a reason you see it ripped here -- well, that and Donruss/Optic might be my favorite lower-end release of last year with its colorful designs and energy. These boxes seem to be plentiful in some discount bins out there and a Mahomes parallel will pay for it all. The base cards here were A+ but the rest of the box was a bit stiff but still colorful and loaded with rookies. There are a few formats for this release can be found at the link above with guaranteed ink. These Special Edition blasters do include a memorabilia card every time, which seems like a safer rip than standard blasters for the same original price.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade: B (thanks to those base card stars)
Fun Grade: B+
