What's Buzz-worthy: I think I mentioned how I had done "my last one of these" a couple breaks back, but I can't stop with them still delivering well ... and this is one of a couple I have (one left to go) with a top-level name's hit inside. This time, it's a rarer parallel auto for Japanese star Io Shirai who actually isn't that rare of an auto since she has plenty of ink from sets from past years but she's typically still on the pricier side of things more often than not. (This one comes at least halfway or perhaps even very close to paying for the box and that's a good thing here as there are likely also a lot of sub-$10 autos to be found in this one ... but at least they are two per box guaranteed.) This box also was on the better side of things with a pair of numbered cards, though neither of those will be big draws. (Better to land than not.) This one gets an A out of me with the rare auto and a second auto that I actually hadn't landed yet. ... As I noted last time, the only drawback here is now that more autographs arriving for the key names here in other releases, those are starting to soften more. For more thoughts and more images from these boxes, check out my other breaks. I've done too many (more than a case at this point) ... but they have delivered well without breaking the bank.

Product Grade: A (small boxes help this one a ton)
Box Grade: A (Shirai has a lot of ink, especially from Japanese sets, but I'll take a rarer one)
Fun Grade: B (not quite as strong as some boxes in terms of non-hits)
