The "what to expect per box" base on the release was not in any way what was in my boxes, I feel it should be noted. This was the listed box hits:

Box Hits
- [3] Die Cut Colorful Inserts
- [3] Base Numbered Parallels above 100
- [1-2] World of Bond w/ Red Parallel
- [1] It's Just a Number
- [1] SPECTRE Objectives

The main thing wrong is I got a ton of Not Just a Number cards and each box didn't have one SPECTRE Objective cards. In my twelve boxes I got 6 "SPRECRE Objective" cards. There is no card listed as "It's Just a Number" so I have to assume it means "Not Just a Number" which I got a ton of even though on Upper Deck's website they are listed as 1:45 packs. I got 14 vertical ones, 22 horizontal, and 6 vertical gold in 12 boxes. So either I'm not understanding the checklist (slightly possible), I got a hot case (less likely), or the odds changed on these manufactured patches.

I was also surprised to get a ton of the thick manufactured patches (Not Just a Number) in my case. I didn't count but it was at least 2 per box overall. There are 3 versions of the horizontal ones and a gold version of the verticals. I think I got 4 golds in my case.

Well maybe I should have asked first but the thick "Not Just a Number" patch cards don't fit in a 120pt top loader. I'm asking now, will a 130pt do the trick for one with a penny sleeve?
Thanks,
Vinny

I am using 180 pt (but I don't have anything between 120 and 180). With 180, in a extra thick penny sleeve it goes in easily but doesn't slide around unless shaken well so I feel comfortable storing/shipping them in these toploaders in a team bag. Something between 120 and 180 would probably be perfect though.

Update: My Ana de Armas signed mem card 14/50 went for $1650 after a 7 day auction. It had over 80 watchers but 4 main bidders.
I'm happy,
Vinny

Just had a minor metaphorical heart attack but all is well.

Bought a Ralph Fiennes auto redemption online. Just arrived. I do the scratch off, and the code is extraordinarily faded. Tried what I thought was the code in 4 different variations. I was about to call Upper Deck when I looked at one letter and said, could that be a T? Tried it and it worked. WHEW! So just a fair warning to those seeking those redemptions.

Another fair warning, when I finally did redeem it the message said, "Athlete committed to signing soon, please be patient." So they haven't even gotten him to sign the cards yet.

Retail is about 6.99 a pack right now, so will probably be 13.99 a pack on epack

I was buying some boxes and hit some cool stuff


But have not seen Craig auto. So kind of waiting to see one

But very small amount has been opened is probably the reason ?

I was wrong it's $7.99 a pack. I had it confused with the higher end one just sitting in the store.
I opened 5 and hit this on the last pack

Well that was a nice box I opened! Got a Ralph Fiennes vertical redemption, and a wardrobe collection trio all in the same box. Haven’t even looked at the rest! Now, epack scratch redemption when I’m in the UK doesn’t seem the easiest to deal with…

But I’m stoked!

Nothing out of 5 packs. Nice to already see others getting huge hits haha. Epack is always so mean to me.

Kudos to the deck, reasonable pricing, De Armas chase is probably gonna blow these fairly quickly.

Historically, Upper deck will just replace/redeem your redemption on UD ePack once card becomes live. They just replace them all once. I've had redemptions from Marvel sets get replaced no issue with physical cards.

Congrats
