    Hoops was tremendously disappointing. I think I'd have better value buying a box of early 90s Hoops! The action photos are probably the best thing the product has.

    That break steered me away from this product,very bland and unexciting,did the machine that prints numbers on cards break down at Panini,lots of non-numbered inserts these days.As always nice review Tony.

    Hi!
    Where did the cards go? I'd be interested in the Green & Udrih as I just started this set.

    Numbered cards, relics and autos from our review breaks go towards site giveaways, contests or our Card Cash Store. Both autos from this break went to our Card Cash Store. The Green was purchased by a member awhile back. The Udrih is still available there.
