What's Buzz-worthy: The recent return of these to the retail aisle had three end up in my hands and, well, none of the three really wowed me. That said, here are two at once ... and I'm not really sure how well I did here after ripping into plenty of this brand this year (why I can't pass them up). I just know I didn't land anything huge. ... As mentioned before, I'm going to be cautious here if I see any more out in the retail wild -- perhaps opting for other stuff if it's new or more my main collecting taste -- since there is plenty out there for this release between reloads and those that loaded up by clearing shelves and filling closets. (Right now it might feel like too much. In the future? Maybe not.) Those key rookies and their rare stuff make it worth the shot to grab it, though, no matter what because their demand is high. If you're a flipper, we're in an off-season lull so load up on the key guys now because in the long term this is the kind of set that will have -- yes, will have -- appeal like 1986-87 Fleer and anything Chrome/Prizm. Besides, the next season also may be here far sooner than normal, too. For more thoughts on this release, check out my countless breaks.
