What’s Buzz-worthy: Great timing on this hit, right? (And, no, this wasn't a box I had in reserve ... happened to find it last night.) Without the hit, this one isn't as slick of a box -- but there is a decent amount of notables among the thick stack of base cards and a couple of name rookies. (And more good timing with the Taylor.) Oddly, I have dupes -- again -- on the Canvas Rated Rookie front and I've only opened like four or five of these blasters this year. Overall, I like these boxes because of the hit and the Optic card -- both only found in this blaster type -- and they can deliver well at times or with good timing like this box did. For more thoughts on this one, check out one of my other breaks.

Product Grade: A-
Box Grade: A
Fun Grade: B (blasters don't cough up the best volume of inserts ... but more RCs)
