What's Buzz-worthy: With a new edition of this long-running brand dropping today, I figured I'd revisit a past-year box in the big sale. The dual-mem card is statistically a tough pull at roughly one in 339 packs and the map card is one on the rarer side (they are as high as 99 copies on some and as low as 17 for others) and my third "hit" here was a forgettable lenticular card. If it wasn't for the rarer inclusions and a couple of decent mini finds, this would easily be an average box. Why rip into this one? Well, the autograph potential here is big -- Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Ben Simmons, Shohei Ohtani, Serena Williams and Wayne Gretzky are in the mix -- and there are a number of other inclusions like Exquisite Collection auto cards, autograph inscriptions, memorabilia pieces that include aviation and NASA pieces, presidential mem cards, cut autos original artwork and more.  Not this time. I generally like Goodwin, but this box was not a good one. Odds are yours will be stronger and with some luck on your side there's huge potential here considering the low price on these right now.

Product Grade: B
Box Grade: B- (helped by some tougher pulls ... but not a flashy box at all)
Fun Grade: C
