What's Buzz-worthy: I'm not sure if these have just been hiding out all this time or if a distributor has been doing some shelf-clearing in a time when new releases are still on pause, but I picked up one of these for the first time since they arrived back in 2018 and found the results to be interesting. These aren't expensive packs but they're also ones you don't see every day now -- and there's always a chance that names that weren't as popular then might be more popular now. (And, as an aside, that's a reason to always consider repacks -- watch the details on the packaging ... sometimes there can be older mixes that deliver well ... especially in sports that have taken off or can be more volatile like the NBA.) This one didn't ultimately didn't deliver anything bigm but the potential of Silver Prizm stars makes these one with some long-shot potential. The only other time I opened these, it included Ginter instead of Archives ... so the Prizm presence was consistent.
Product Grade: B+ (low price with some potential)
Pack Grade: B-
Fun Grade: B
