What's Buzz-worthy: This pair of packs once again delivered pretty well on the cheap in terms of variety, flash and even some star power. I didn't open a lot of this one back when it arrived but the 75th parallels seemed to pop up less often so to have a pair in a pair of packs was nice with one name a better name than a lot of the possibilities. Atop that, one pack had an extra Orange in there, too. Anything big overall? Not really to my eyes. This is a year where a lot was made so some names aren't as pricey as you might think they would be but the rarer stuff and other notable names in parallel spots can still add up and make a pack a win -- these are decent on that front but dollars-wise nothing big. ... If I routinely ripped NBA stuff, I'd probably do more of this as long as they are cheaper in price and hits -- autos and memorabilia cards -- are possible in this particular format. I still have a couple packs to go here but the first ones have been the better ones.
