Pretty flashy, not quite my style and the sticker kinda kills it in my opinion.

Yeah, Gold Standard is going to do exactly what it did in basketball after people realize that paying 200 dollars for this type of product is a REALLY bad idea. You may get however many hits per box, but over half of them are jersey or patch cards that have no value. On top of that, the rookies signed their cards with paint pens instead of the sharp markers like with the ones in inception. It looks terrible.

Looks like they took what Topps did with the diamond cards for baseball and mashed them together with the Super Bowl die cuts. Plus what does a diamond have to go with "gold standard" anyways?

This!

The kicker is they had the rookies sign the GOLD standard RC, with a nice GOLD flake background on a big black box in.... Silver? Really?

How nice would this card be if they used a Gold sharpie on that black box?
