What's Buzz-worthy: One more of these and it's got good star power among the inserts and rookies but other spots are still flat -- yet I have seen worse blasters. This one gets an A but it's definitely not a flashy box at all in terms of what was found ... it's about who was found. ... These are cheaper now and are a good way to amass base cards for a set or do some volume ripping, but hobby remains by far -- by miles -- your best bet on the big parallels and hits here as they flow more regularly there. There are a lot of reasons to rip here, though, including a boatload of Rookie Cards for names who figure to be a big deal for years to come. This format is just not that dynamic -- it's a basic mix with Silvers and Greens -- and the expectations should be a little less dynamic, too, though strong stuff is possible a few times per case if luck is on your side. This one is a landmark release and this set has a deep 200-card checklist that's loaded with past, present and future stars so that can mean hot boxes or lean ones with this smaller format -- meanwhile, two just hobby packs equal a blaster. Rip the big boxes if you can ... and do these when those are gone.

Product Grade: A- (a lot of off-centered cards and rough cuts for my taste in this landmark release -- holds it back from top marks)
Box Grade: A-
Fun Grade: B
