What's Buzz-worthy: I had no intention of busting more of this favorite of mine but I recently landed four of them and three were A+ contender boxes worthy of Buzz Breaks for sure. Why for this one? A single autograph -- Shotzi Blackheart -- on a rare color of parallel that literally pays for the box and another and likely a third depending on the price. I've had big boxes far more than I have had mediocre ones with this release, which has an autograph in every pack in a small-box format thanks to COVID delays that forced the issue. If I made a list of the autos I'd want to see in boxes here, I think I have landed all of them straight from packs -- and some in rarer parallel colors like this one. The skinny stock here is a dangerous one, especially with on-card autos, and they can have wear for sure. This one? A lot more on the cleaner side than the rough one ... making this box an even bigger win. For more thoughts and more images from these boxes, check out my other breaks. I've done too many ... but they have delivered.

Product Grade: A (small boxes help this one a ton)
Box Grade: A+ (Shotzi leads the way here)
Fun Grade: A- (one big card makes it all fun ... this time)
