Some nice cards, but hard to take some of those jerseys at 70-80 bucks a hit..... Looks like half case Auto/half jerseys.

Too risky for me this late in the season. Nice cards, but you've pretty much have to buy multiple boxes to get something really nice. Of course, you can be super lucky with one box, but I don't want to risk it at this point in the season.

FSU,

Is it 3 other cards in all the packs and is it a mix of stars, legends and rookies?

Nice to see no single jerseys..combo's seem a little weird, but the design is pretty nice. The foursome patches look awesome!

fsu2007
02-16-2009, 02:53 PM
mixture of legends, rookies and base. All the cards I got were #ed /275. Some packs had 2 rookies, some 2 base. But there was at least a rookie or legend in each pack.

So it's 3 other cards plus the hit right? At least the Legends and Rookies will be sellable, unlike Ult. Baseball.

I dont get the Charles/Booty/Bush/Young.... Besides being Rookies, the McFadden/Djack/Ryan/Keller is also an odd pairing

That's actually good news. Better than a bunch of base that nobody wants.

The Eli Manning auto is something I'd be interested in if it's available. I've been grabbing some of his SPA autos. Since I'm in NY it's better than buying stocks right now. I'll PM you.

Thanks,

I thought it was all first rounders then I remembered DJ was a second rounder. No clue on this combo except they had swatches sitting there next to each other and presto......

Thanks for posting this! I've got two cases coming plus may pick some more up at my lcs if they go well. Everything looks pretty nice.

Okay, so we can add Faulk along with Bosworth and Bruce Smith as guys they added to the Legends set that weren't on the checklist. I just hope they didn't remove names a la Topps Mayo.

As always, nice to see your break fsu. Do they happen to list any parallels to the RC jsy/autos? Perhaps a patch version.

Who was on the original checklist ? Buddy of mine sent me an email from last months Beckett in which they had photos of Boz and Bruce Smith cards. Smith is in a Skins uni....UGHHHHHH:rolleyes:

Nick, my buddy said UD was doing the Contenders thing and going to release the print run of the auto's after. Would be nice to see them on the card, but may work better for re-sale the other way

Well at least you got someone who is actually a legend off that list. Moose, Rathman and Walker were all very good players but I wouldn't exactly call them legends. I know the 97 set has some questionable players included as well but come on UD.....The Boz was more fairy tale then legend. After missing Earl Campbell in the original 97 set how did they skip him again ? :mad:

Stuff looks okay, but almost a certain loser if you're ripping a case looking for gold. At $80 per hit, you need to have more than 1 color jersey combos, regardless of who the players are. It'd be nice to see if the rookie patch variations are the same sized window - those would be some gems!!! But a rookie auto print run /350 for most + not guaranteed superstar case hit + a lot of 1 color jersey cards = not what I'd expect out of a retooled high end product at $80 a pack.

Great cards. I gotta get my taxes done so I can get some.

BAMBAM
02-16-2009, 07:21 PM
So conceivably the "case hit" might not even pay for one box with this product. I also haven't seen much color in the RC autos. The Ryan was a 2 color patch on the promo sheet yet all the RCs I've seen so far are one color jerseys. Gotta love UD. Nice stuff for the PC but 99 out of 100 cases probably won't get you back to even money if you're a rip and flip guy. At least FSU got his a little early so he may strike some gold early on with BINs.

02-16-2009, 07:56 PM
I was concerned about the rookie print run being so high...hoping it would've been reduced some even with the limited player selection. Anyone know if they kept in the various non-football autos?
