What's Buzz-worthy: I found a couple of these affordable hangers for the first time since back when they arrived and figured they might be worth the look ... and ultimately it delivered pretty consistent stuff compared to my last two times. These aren't the flashiest cards as they are pretty standard stuff stock-wise and are decently priced compared to the mega box for the brand. For the money, I'd probably do three of these instead of a mega box unless those are somehow delivering better hits more regularly than my 150 Rewards points there. (A 150-point card can't come close to paying off on the $30-plus price difference, especially with the shipping fee.) This might be a safe buy as long as you have some luck landing notable RCs or their parallels. There are 100 rookies on the checklist, so it's not all that easy to pull any one name you are looking for. I got a few key names and a RC I'd want but the available singles volume on this one might make for the stronger approach if you're wanting guys who aren't super-pricey vs. ripping. Hobby boxes of this one are hits-driven and are really good on the potential front.
