Hits from Box 1:

Hits from box 2.....

Nothing

No hits at all.

Bottom line, cool set, very similar to last years. Not a fan of hitting a dead box (I know it happens sometimes) or the sticker auto but it's a fun product and I'm sure it'll do well.
Thanks for the look

That caramel auto is ugly with the sticker!

Did you happen to pull any Carlos Gonzalez?

Looking at other breaks and whats on ebay so far this product looks like complete crap. Such a shame because the original Topps 206 back in 2002 & 03 was awesome.

Why would they use that sticker on that card?
USE A CLEAR STICKER IF YOU HAVE TO USE ONE AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems like the caramel autos were an afterthought since they are stickers, and I agree those silver stickers look awful. They actually have a few players on clear stickers in this product to go along with the silver, which again to me seems like they threw those together at the last moment.

Ill have to agree. Encased sticker autos might be the worst thing ever.

Thanks for posting the pics (nice hits); I'm still undecided on this product. Was this retail or hobby? thanks

Nice break!! That sticker out is pretty ugly. The sticker is almost as big as the card

Pretty solid first box, James.

Does this product have a guarenteed # of hits per box?
