Topps did an overall decent job with this. I think it's a little different and new to us hobby collectors because I for one have never played a game like this. The base set has a nice design, with easy to read letters and numbers. However, the card stock is extremely thin and flimsy. The code cards are an awesome thing to include as well because it gives the players a chance to compete online against millions of different Attax players world-wide. Also, the silver foil are very cool because they have the refractor technology in them which gives them a good look, which is always a plus.
It was good that in the 36 total packs, I did not pull a single duplicate. There were a couple duplicate players, but them were in the silver foil and base sets. What's cool about these is they have different pictures for them, so it's not redundant.
I did have fun breaking this product. It was a little different obviously because there are not "hits" like game-used or autographs. However, if i were a player and engage in playing the game, I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more.
I certainly would recommend this for the younger generation. This could be something really cool for them learn the game, players, have fun doing it!
Again, I'd like to thank Topps for sending SCF this box to review and being a great sponsor!
