Another OUTSTANDING Stryker Breaks informative video. Like the look of the cards, like the look of the inserts and parallels, like the variety you get in each pack they're not all the same one after the other. I like being able to get 2 each of the inserts and parallels in each box. I agree for the price one has to pay for this you should get at least one auto of some kind whether it be base, insert and or parallel. Wish I could afford this, but it is way out of my price range dang it. Haven't been able to land any of this years Topps Chrome in my neck of the woods so I convinced my wife to let me by 3 Monster Boxes from Blow Out Cards hoping to get lucky with these boxes once they get here, got free shipping out of the deal. Supposed to arrive on Monday by UPS between 11 and 3:30 pm I believe the e-mail said. You and your family have a good, safe and blessed rest of yer day and week.

Did you find out what that white bordered card is exactly? I reminds me of the Panini Black Gold where they had the reverse cards that were the opposite color. Really clean looking set, autos being so absurdly rare do make it a hard sell to spend almost $500 on a hobby box and having a 25% chance at best of an auto. I get it - it’s supposed to be “exclusive” but that’s a lot of dough just for a shorter print run

The psychadelic topps finest design a couple months ago was gorgeous and bordleress. They were magnificent. These seem constrained, cartoony, and goofy in contrast.
