So next box I'm breaking that was sent to me was 2013 PRESS PASS SHOWCASE FOOTBALL
This one looks cool as its supposedly an 'all hits" box from that time

The Breakdown of the box contents is below. Big hits at the time were Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III, Matt Barkley etc etc etc. Supposedly it included only the "best" prospects. I can say that De'Andre Hopkins, Cordarelle Patterson, Geno Smith, Le'Veon Bell, and Zach Ertz didn't turn out too badly either !! Some long careers on those 5 so far

Boxes had the following :

1 Pack Per Box, 7 Cards Per Pack
Six On-Card Autographs Per Box
One Game-Used Jersey Card Per Box
Find Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III Cut Signature Cards


Pics below of the box

Good to see you back, opening boxes. The site has been extremely slow these days. Don't recognize many of the names, but that Keenan Allen might be your best hit. He is most likely a HOF caliber WR. Look forward to see what else you are opening!

PICS OF THE PULLS
==============

Forgive my re-use of older holders but not paying newer prices until I use ALL my older plastic holders
Wayne = yeah Keenan Allen was the best pull in the first box and RG3 in this one

OK so I'm about to attack the first box of Hoop stuff my hobby friend sent me - 2020-21 Select Basketball ( Megabox 4/8 config)
This box apparently has some hot Lamelo Ball stuff along with Green/White/Red Prizm inserts and a rookie a pack
I've also been advised to look for Silver Prizms and the usual superstars. Been told I can keep and sub stuff he'll guide me on what to do. Has 8 packs with 4 cards each inside. I do know some hoop players (somewhat) but couldn't tell you who is hot right now and who is not rookie wise

So the set up apparently is three levels total. It is Blue in color for the base issue ( hopefully I read the box right)

Concourse , which is the base set and lowest level
Premier Level , sorta midrange importance and a harder to pull ,
Courtside which is the highest level and most desired pull

So each of those levels has various inserts of value, colors , etc

One thing that intrigues me is I see it has Select Numbers in it. This reminds me of 1998 Select baseball which I love
I saw a few breakers pulls and its exactly like that set although the base items have a matted dull finish
So I may decide later this year to partake in some boxes I buy with my own money
I'm gonna blame him,Mark, and several other hobbyists (including @blurryface on CU) for bringing me over to the dark side ( what I call anything not baseball)
They keep posting this stuff and anytime it tickles a certain nerve, I might decide to pay attention to it

Box pictures as always

I am guessing what these Prizms "might " be called
I'll post pictures when I can later on in the day = maybe somebody can help a brother out who is a Hoop newbie !!
Posting this now but I'll scan in 2-3 hrs after I run pre planned errands and do pickups that are time sensitive


PACK 1
=======
JAMES HARDEN CONCOURSE BLUE # 12
DENI AVDIJA ROOKIE CONCOURSE # 69
DEVONTE GRAHAM RED/WHITE/GREEN PRIZM COURTSIDE # 241
LAMELO BALL SELECT NUMBERS #1

Lamelo doesn't show anything unusual so I'll presume its a base special insert (?!?)
The Graham is a Courtside so I guess that's a good thing also !


PACK 2
=========
GIANNIS ANTENTOKOUNPO CONCOURSE # 54
PAYTON PRITCHARD ROOKIE PREMIER LEVEL # 196
TYRESE MAXEY RED/WHITE/GREEN PRIZM CONCOURSE # 81

ISAAC OKORO PREMIER LEVEL ROOKIE # 182
BOGDAN BOGDANOVIC RED/WHITE/GREEN PRIZM CONCOURSE # 50
BOGDAN BOGDANOVIC PRIZM CONCOURSE # 50

DONOVAN MITCHELL CONCOURSE # 27
JUSUF NURKIC CONCOURSE # 51
BAM ADEBAYO RED/WHITE/GREEN PRIZM CONCOURSE # 8

======
MITCHELL ROBINSON CONCOURSE #9
MATISSE THYBULLE PREMIER LEVEL #139
TIM HARDAWAY JR RED/ WHITE /GREEN PRIZM PREMIER LEVEL #128

=========
RUSSELL WESTBROOK CONCOURSE # 39

Tomorrow gonna break open and crack this box he sent- looks like 2020/21 PANINI REVOLUTION BASKETBALL in the Chinese New Year 12 packs/5 cards a pack insertion configuration ( honestly I would not know what other configs they come in= this is me guessing)

I'll scan more of the box tomorrow this is a quick scan of one portion. Woke up to take meds sleeping another couple hrs before work.

I know Zion and Ja will be here- I'll have to look up what else might be inside and teach myself :cautious:
