What's Buzz-worthy: These are retail packs from the second standalone NXT release and there's good potential here -- but with odds that are a little funky and a set that makes it a bit of a challenge to go that far with its size and design in this format. Autos are one in 16 -- which isn't that bad -- but hobby boxes had ink in every single pack (10 per box). Parallels of autos are also here even printing plates at one in 5,033 packs. The only other stuff here are parallels of the roster and Matches & Moments cards. Both are small sets so buying jumbo packs here will be very repetitive here and then the black borders and thin stock in these loose baggies ... well don't rip this if you're a grader. (Blasters were Relics only but seem to have dried up ... and hobby naturally did with all the ink.) I think the autos are a bit of a hidden gem here in this format -- people may not realize they are as easy as they are -- and there are some good names among the signers. See the base card notables? They're nearly all in here as ink and there's more beyond that. Interestingly, this three-pack lot didn't have any dupes, was too lean on inserts beyond Bronze parallels (color parallels are also one in 16 for starters ... the same as autos) but there's really -- literally -- nothing else in these packs. Base, parallels and then the full array of standard autographs.

Product Grade: B+
Lot Grade: B- (good names but nothing of note here this time)
Fun Grade: C+ (single packs are risky/dull but there is potential here with ink)
