What's Buzz-worthy: My relative hot streak here continues with a Relic and then the run of the top rookies that pretty much make any blaster a win here if you ask me. Are they big-money cards right now? Not always, but over time they will have interest later if these players continue to play well as boxes slowly but surely dry up (even with plenty made). ... HHN is one that has such a loaded set that it's perhaps harder to get a whiff but if I liked the 1973 design more, this set might have landed an A+ grade overall. As a collector, this is the kind of release we need to see more of -- a lot to chase -- but without a price that forces one to rip and flip since it's so expensive. It's a better experience with hobby boxes for the price -- a guaranteed hit and more along with a near-set in every box. I say rip those until they rise up or dry up and then snack on these blasters or the megas later as long as they are reasonably priced.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade: A+ (can be topped but a hit and the run of rookies is good here)
Fun Grade: A-
