lol, sorry for the fake out. I usually try to bust first but anymore I try to see true value before I buy heavy. Thanks for sharing so far

Starting to see stuff trickle on to ebay.com, but would be good to see a big break for the variety. 23 sketch cards is slightly disappointing. I thought we might get slightly over the odds, not under. Also a little concerned that if there are only 17 signers across a lot of boxes/cases, then there will be some big volumes of certain signers. On the plus side, I really like the look of the base cards, and it's great that the parallels are numbered.

18 blue parallels in two boxes, so 9 per box. Based on the pull above. My calc is as follows: -
There are 350 x 350 = 122,500 blue parallels in 13,611 boxes or 1134 cases. In the case of red cards should be seeded 10 - 11 to a case or 0-1 per box.
Thats my math done!
But of course I could be wrong - there could be retail boxes with different seedings.

^ yes, that sounds about right. I actually thought there would be less cases, probably circa 500-750, so slightly surprised at the higher number, but I guess they must have had the pre-orders?

^^^ this is great info. thanks @Breygent. Can you post the auto's and sketches too? What is your honest opinion of the set/breaks? Were you happy with the overall quality of the cases? Any gold parallels?

I don't know about the patch cards. Interesting idea for an insert but not a "hit" card in my book. I hope there aren't a ton in the set. I like the autos though. Nice hits on those 3. I hope the other 9 weren't all ****.

Perhaps Topps took a cue from Upper Deck and tiered the patches...i.e. make some more difficult and short printed. UD's Animal Kingdom patches are GOLD with Ultra Rare ones bringing $700 dollars and more ...SERIOUSLY.
