What's Buzz-worthy: Here's one more of these boxes from when I picked up a few at release date -- and I haven't seen any reloads since. This one is basically an average box with a couple of names to save it from a C grade. ... These hanger boxes carry a suggested retail price of $17.98 -- just $2 less than a blaster -- but include nearly the same amount of cardboard (20 cards here vs. 24 in a blaster) and, importantly, include some exclusives that can deliver. You don't get a guaranteed hit here but you do get Orange Ice cards as well as a shot at rookie variations that are found here. This format might be my runaway pick for best retail format had the price been slightly lower -- I'm still torn between this and blasters for the cost as they are similar and the blasters do guarantee a hit. The RCs and parallels are big in Prizm -- especially if you consider grading -- and you should with this release.

Product Grade: A+
Box Grade: B- (not a lot going on here ... closer to average but a couple cards saved it)
Fun Grade: B- (not my best box of this one)
