I swore to myself no more redemptions, but after I saw that Upper Deck decided to do this:

I decided that it might be worth a shot. To my knowledge, this is the first time in history any card company has ever scanned every single copy of a mainstream rookie card out of a high end product. Card companies should follow their lead to help combat patch faking. Kudos to Upper Deck.
So i've been anxiously awaiting fedex, and today the sealed envelope finally came in. Of course, I was praying for no single color patches, which there are quite a few.
Here's what I got:

Thank you redemption gods!
Here's a hint for those thinking about picking up a Hall - I think they are hand-picking the best patches to give away to the early customers - I haven't seen a single color patch on ebay yet, so if you ever thought about redeeming one, get it now and get it in quick before they run out of multi-colored patches!
And talk about provenance, EVERY single card in the run is matched with a scan, so no patch faking these, ever!
