Am I wrong? Select is better than Prizm?

Much better at least for me. Action shots, More limited, more rookies less vets, more color, better design, and XRC as a plus.

It’s honestly not even close. Select without a doubt.

But not in the only way that matters (to me) $$$. New people can try and push it as the next big thing and a Prizm killer... yea, best of luck on that in the long term.

I love Select, but.....

.....if I'm being honest, it kind of feels like the design just looks at marble countertop samples for inspiration.

More so for Vertex! That said, I think I’d take those ugly parallels over the Lucille-Austero-blouse-inspired SSP animal print parallels in Select

I personally love the animal print parallels. They are a bit more creative than just colors. I suppose if you wanted to get creatvie you could take a page out of the old Goodwin Champ animal patches and make the rarity of the card be based on the rarity of the animal. Like a TRex Skin border would be a 1/1 while a Rat Fur Border would be super common

Retail fat packs in Walmarts.

Start tanking these base RC prices, people.

Target not WM. Probably in the Midwest area near where Excell is located

Lol 150 for a fat pack, 1 guaranteed silver. Better optic.

You get more cards than the baseball release, we’re blasters had 3 packs and 12 cards

Retail just killed the value of the base select RC's, when they were just hobby only they actually were rare compared to Prizm

The collector in me has zero problem with this. eBay flooded with base and silvers equates to way cheaper singles. Had a good chuckle at the early single prices.

A couple of questions if anyone knows:

1. Checklist shows a ton of die-cut prizms. I'm assuming all of them are going to be in retail?

2. Will retail have mostly concourse and premier with club and field being pretty rare?
