Got my latest order of NFL in today, so had a nice afternoon busting packs. I did okay I think, not a whole lot of PC hits, but some reasonable cards.

First off the freebies - 4 x 2012 Rookie and Stars Retail 10 pack blasters. Nothing exciting, a couple of jerseys, a few parallels and inserts, lots of Rookies. If anyone is after anything from this, yell out. Here's the jerseys, both FT/FS

Next up - Finest. A little disappointed in Finest this year, massive numbers on the Autos and then most of the refractors aren't numbered at all ?? Hits weren't great but did get a couple of Luck's and an RGIII. All available.

And the Refractors -

Next up - Prominence. A bit expensive for what you get, and I didn't get much. Only bought it because the price had dropped. Did get 3 autos rather than the guaranteed 2, but nothing great...The Manning brothers made an appearance in the base. All available.

Then it was Momentum. I was looking forward to this box the most. Expensive, yes, but a lot of fun with so many hits. I think my box was okay, nice PC hit in the Bettis, pretty neat /49 multicolor Prime of Dan Fouts too. Really like the way some of the old timers make this set, love picking up a PC add like the Bettis in current product. Blackmon might have some value. Redemption is for Bengals first rounder Dre Kirkpatrick.

Lastly, Gridiron which a few of the guys on here have been talking about. I can say the base cards are great, awesome photography. Reminds me of the days when Upper Deck were at the top of their game in the NFL. Some nice inserts/parallels as well. A good number of Rookies too (20).

The hits -

Hang on it's says 4 Hits and at least 2 two Autos per box...what gives ?







Oh yeah, I forgot this one ;-)

So that one saved the afternoon I reckon.... it's a /199


Anyway, if anyone's interested in anything, be it hits or base, let me know. All except Rams and Dolphins are available, either in trade or sale...

Thanks for looking...
 
Well done with the RG3 Trevor, certainly saved the day!!, certainly think we ought to go the momentum as the 'big' box for our break if possible
 
Big congrats on the RG3 Auto - second RG3 pulled by someone here recently. Hopefully we have this sort of luck in our group break! Also the Martin could have just reached it's peak value today with the huge game he just had :mad:

I need to hurry up and get me a box of that Gridiron! I love the look of the 'X' Autos. Would be keen in that Still.
 
Some sweet hits for sure, couple of nice Broncos cards. I got another Prestige and a Rookies & Stars box today so post up tomorrow. Now realise the deal with collecting teams / players. Looking at trading for anything Denver, see what comes out.
