I personally liked this set, but I'm a base set collector. I really liked the base cards, the auto checklist was extensive and the overall design of the base, auto and swatch cards was nice and clean.

That said, there were some real down sides for hit chasers. Only 1 auto per box and the swatches and relics were near impossible to pull for collectors just breaking 1-2 boxes. You could easily assemble a base set from 1 box but a master set was again near impossible because terrible collation meant a case might not even net you a complete Racer Girl set... and card 90, which was supposed to be a case topper, wasn't present in all cases.

This is easily the worst 'hit' to pull out of Vault boxes. I'd rather get a 2006 Holiday before this... I assume Vault is where you got this?

yeppers...was in vault...most of the time I ended up selling them on ebay for about $8 plus shipping, just didn't want to deal with it...finally sold my most of the 12 box case of alias season 3 from blowout (got it for $80) net result...sold 10 boxes for $98.00 , so $18 profit and 2 boxes left to sell or open...but took my like 3 weeks to sell those 10 boxes
