Great looking cards looking forward to breaking this product.

Anyone want to get in on a case with me?

The cards look good, however I have a feeling the product will be watered-down with lower tier players in the autograph sets. The Sign of The Times set has a handful of solid signers but the checklist is largely made up of bottom-feeders (And no Gretzky?). I think there will be many, many breaks with weak autograph pulls and it might even get to the point UD Champs did last year where everybody and their dog pulled the same guys (Cleary/Filewich/Hiller/Gragnani/Iggulden/Kronwall/Stephan... The list goes on).

I completely agree. The preview sheet looks nice, but look at the checklist...it really is weak.
