They changed the page, but it was there yesterday.

This dual auto has stickers, so I suspect it was a real photo of the superfractor.

Would love to see a checklist, hoping Jaden Bradley (Arizona) has a card, I work with his aunt...

Where are you seeing that?

I almost actually would prefer an EQL for basketball releases like this or Cosmic Chrome (and certainly for 2026-27 Chrome). About equal chances with a lot less bother.

A whole lot of fluff in this. Looks like paper autos are in retail and the chrome are in hobby. Looks like they're missing a whole bunch of the potential top 10 draft picks as well (Boozer, Flemings, Wagler, Acuff), as well.

I'd much rather gamble on Cosmic vs this. I'll be surprised if there aren't lots of bad, bad boxes of this stuff.

Ok, so 200 card NBA checklist, 100 card college checklist with men/women packed into that.

It's confirmed a paper based release with Chrome parallels of all base. Pretty neat how they use all Chrome in marketing.

So you'll be sitting this drop out, Roberto?

HoggieHunches · 03-23-2026, 12:19 PM

Only Michigan player (men or women) is a freshman who doesn't get minutes. Was hopeful to chase Syla Swords, Yaxel, etc. Oh well. I'll sit this one out too.

The way the checklist reads, at least seems like hobby only has chrome autos (the paper ones are labelled as "retail"). This seems like a product where you just buy the singles or sit on the sealed especially if Cosmic gets out before it.

Even if I wanted it I wouldnt be able to buy, young sir.

exitmusicblue · 03-23-2026, 12:45 PM

This also means 1st BC cards from the earlier Bowman U days will likely see a bump in value.

Oh, no doubt. Just curious if you'll be getting upset today AND tomorrow or just today

I'll save you the suspense, there will be a lot bad boxes. Bowman in baseball is tough, now add the bball hype? Expensive and tough.

One plus is that BKB cards, on average, sell for significantly more than BB cards (so EV is higher).

also megabox will have mojo chrome autos they are in the checklist

Absolutely, but just like baseball this will be suicide to open.

So will Fanatics screw over paper Bowman like they did paper flagship? Chrome practically right after paper.
