The base cards look cool.
The two jsy/auto rookies per box is awesome. This draft class is awesome.
I can barely afford retail, let alone a $150+ box.
:lol:

Look like some good stuff this year. I will be looking out for some Kg triples this year

I can't stand they went back to the Home/Away rookie cards......other than that they look great. I wonder if there are Spectrums numbered of 10 again this year.

"Spectrums" are 1/1

"Radiance" are /25

That is for both RC cards and base cards
