This is online exclusive only as far as Im aware so not sure if it is 2 autos why they wouldn't change the box image. Only time I can think of that autos were different than what the box said was for a FOTL they didn't change the box from hobby version except for the FOTL sticker.
The checklist was up today but nothing showed up. Still no way to check what the Choice Prizms were numbered to. Panini's email said 3 Choice Prizm Exclusives /20 or less. There was still no mention of any of this on Panini's auction page during the auction. It just said 3 Prizm Choice numbered parallels or something like that. I think Choice Prizms from all other years are in the 80s and lower. Big difference between /20 or less and /80 or less. The email today said 2 autos but the box image in the email still only showed 1 auto on the box.
I was thinking about taking a chance at the floor and hoping the email is accurate. These somehow "sold out" at I think $708 with zero high volume. I added to cart just to get it there probably a couple minutes before sellout in 1 click.
If the email is accurate still no idea why people would buy this at $708-$833 versus Prizm FOTL last week at $1218-$1425. Those Choice boxes most of the value is those 3 Choice Prizms if they are /20 or less. 2 silvers are worth what $15 each? 1 other unnumbered card. 2 autos, assuming the email description and not box image in the email is correct, but who has any idea what the odds are on being numbered. If this actually sold out at $708 virtually every buyer that paid tax paid around $750 or more. You figure many had to have bought before that and paid $800-$900. They are basically valuing those 3 cards at $500+. Obviously, Choice parallels are worth less than regular Prizm parallels. The 3 low numbered Prizm FOTL parallels weren't being valued anywhere close to that much during the auction, but somehow Choice Prizms were? With no idea if the info is even accurate? OK.

from sources i heard 50% of the boxes were still available when panini pulled them at 708
