I got my 3 in the first wave offering but just got my smart post email yesterday. Not sure how they order these things, but mine are due to arrive on the 7th. It also seems like choosing next day doesn’t guarantee an early shipment from them so I guess it’s just luck of the draw?

Here's a scan of the best cards from my 3 boxes. These are very sharp in hand, although I think the lack of a 1st Bowman logo and a lack of names on the front is going to hurt in the long run.

Really nice cards but valuewise, I don't see anything really holding. No 1st logos and these will likely just drift off into just another prospect card for all these guys.

Why would there be 1st Bowman logos when these are not their 1st Bowman cards? I'm confused as to why this is even being mentioned.

To me it's VERY similar to a normal Bowman product. Both in look and feel. Heck, they reused the same Wander Franco Bowman 1st image in it too. Maybe others? Not sure.

I just don't see where this fits in with the Bowman spectrum... Just more and more watered down prospect cards, and there were already a ton.

I really like the clean look with no names on the fronts.

If a player becomes iconic, we won’t need his name on the front.

I am receiving 3 and opening 1. The only reason I am opening is because of the potential Wander auto. His addition to the set is key for future sales. I don't think singles from this will hold up but if Wander tears it up like people say he will in the big leagues, sealed boxes will still provide value.

Most of the players have reused images. Not surprising. Just disappointing.

wow man 3 boxes and 2 gold ref auto's, consider yourself ridiculously lucky, I pulled 2 no name base auto's out of this overpriced product. No way it was worth the $100+ I paid for my 2, let alone the $150 they're going for on the bay. After opening these the max I would pay would be $65 per. These were def. not worth it imo

I bought 2 because of FOMO but I also think it's overpriced at $100. The concept is pretty cool and I think there is a lot to like about this set but not having more parallels of the rookies/veterans is a big complaint I have and then having mostly prospect autos is also a deterrent for me to purchase more.

The cards themselves look really nice but is this product really anything more than heritage minors with some heritage majors base and some chrome parallels thrown in?

I love the fact that no names are displayed on the front. Along with the colored brders, these cards are really nice. I definitely enjoyed opening mine.

No color autos in my last six. Through nine boxes, 2 Refractor, 7 Base. Ugh. Names were good on the last few though.

Those supers look nice.

Opened one box so far. Ryan Costello gold auto. Kind of a bummer.

I believe I will sell my 3 boxes of heritage when they arrive. I sold my Sapphire last night so I'm pleased making some easy money on these flips!
