What I Thought:
I love the design of this product. The artistic look is great and these are truly masterpieces. Also each box gives quite a few inserts including in my case 2 numbered cards (/50 and /99). Also I pulled 3 GU cards which have a reasonable sized swatch inside them. Each box also garuntees at least 1 autograph which in my case was directly on the card and not a sticker. Finally something unique to this set is you can actually win the artwork itself. What could better cap off a perfect collection then a painting of your favorite player. I would recommend this box to anyone and most likely will be picking up 2-3 boxes in the near future for myself.

I grabbed 1 retail pack of these the other day and love the design and look of the cards. All of my base cards were top notch and I hit a Roy Halladay Jersey card. (I have to send it for replacement, it was torn on the front from packaging) UD did a good job of putting it all together with this product.

I also got a pack & no snubs! A great mix of current stars & past HOF moments puts this product over the top. It reminds me a lot of Diamond Kings with not as many parallels.

This product rivals Topps use of D*ck Perez. I must say that I am very impressed with the quality of the photos as well as the choices of the players' poses. The matted finish is a classic for this set as it features lots of veterans.

The on-card "hard" autograph will only increase the auto insert set value as the use of stickers continues.

Kudos to UD for utilizing on-card autos for such a beautifully presented set!

Wow! Very nice product. 3 GU, and an auto isn't bad odds. Love the Harden auto. Some Canadian content.
