What's Buzz-worthy: Third time's the charm? Maybe, maybe not ... but I did land a number of good names among the parallels and inserts that made this one another decent box when found at suggested retail price. My hit this time? A relatively well-known younger star who has had his moments so that didn't hurt, either. ... I did a trio of boxes at SRP ($19.99) with similar results on all three (a memorabilia card per) so that's likely the norm more than its not with the set being pretty small so this one will be do-able, though some subsets are slightly SP'd if you look at the odds closely. Over time, I don't think those will be rare -- and e-Pack is still to come on this one. This box again had a lot of cards with tweaked top-left corners as well as a lot of surface dents and upper right edge issues (a big deal if you contemplate grading) but overall it's a comfortable first release -- though delays between its creation and arrival did mean a lot of new additions were not found here. For more of my thoughts, check out my other two breaks.

Product Grade: B+ (delays hurt this one ... a lot of notables not in the set)
Box Grade: A-
Fun Grade: A (a lot of variety even in these small boxes between subsets and inserts)
