Is the release date still set for May 6th?

I don't mind manufactured logos like the bottom card, just so long as they're all auto'ed. It's so freaking stupid when (like in Premier) you get one with that big empty spot where the auto goes. I haven't decided if auto letters are good yet. I don't own any yet, but at the very least these are far better than the crappy lettermen cards from last year.

I haven't bought much recently but i plan on getting a box or two of this
i really like the look too - plus the normal autos are on-card

plus pick up a lot of rc's, probably a bunch of parallels - and low price point too....so seems like a winner in my book

Looks interesting. I might have to try a box or two.
