It looks sharp, as usual. I feel like I get all excited about each year via the pictures, and the actual product isn't as sharp and I end up a little disappointed.

I never get excited about this product. ParaHell and sticker autos. Pass.

I like doing the frozen artifacts. 10/11 was lacking so I skipped it as I did 08/09 (cheesy looking). Looking forward to seeing the checklist to see who is in which GU'd offering.

Very nice! I love a lot of those cards. The only thing I don't like is the Trasured Swatches and how difficult it is to read the font but in many cases the cards turn out a lot better when the product comes out. Overall, A+

i do LOVE the triple patch...although its only a mock up...but the cards don't look much different from last year...i didn't buy any last year so i probly won't this year either
