What's Buzz-worthy: This box was a rough one -- average other than maybe a few base notables -- but that will happen with this being such a huge set. Not much else to say about this box specifically. It has the variety but the names weren't there this time. ... As noted last time, this fourth release of this brand is a recent arrival after being a bit of a comedy act with countless delays over the last year but it's simplicity and variety do make it worth the wait -- especially considering the cost, which is among the cheapest on the calendar. (Worth the wait as long as you out-do this box.) There's no gloss here. There's no foil stamping here. There's just clean and sturdy cardboard with longer shots at hits and some easier ink (one in 60 packs ... so around six per blaster case) and then some basic parallels. One insert, Home Team Traditions, is dramatically rarer in this format (one in 1,103) but everything else appears to be in the normal, findable ranges. Blasters are the home of Blue parallels that add more variety than the larger display boxes that ride on Orange only. I'd probably do a few of these first.

Product Grade: B+ (design is a little stiff for this one) 
Box Grade: C+ (no numbered parallel this time and really not a good run of top-tier names in inserts at all)
Fun Grade: B- (see above)
