Two Unannounced "Easter Egg" Parallels in OPC Platinum

[RGM81]

So there are two pretty cool parallels for collectors to chase in the newly-released OPC Platinum.

The first one is an "All Star Variant" featuring players who, you guessed it, went to the All Star Game last year. Here is the checklist and what to look for:
1 Sidney Crosby - Black Uniform
10 Auston Matthews - White Uniform
11 Mark Scheifele - White Uniform
16 Kris Letang - White Uniform
19 David Pastrnak - White Uniform
31 Miro Heiskanen - White Uniform
34 Erik Karlsson - Black Uniform
39 Steven Stamkos - White Uniform
45 Henrik Lundqvist - Black Uniform
50 Patrick Kane - White Uniform
53 Brent Burns - Black Uniform
59 Drew Doughty - Black Uniform
65 John Tavares - White Uniform
75 Nathan MacKinnon - Black Uniform
82 Andrei Vasilevskiy - White Uniform
83 Blake Wheeler - Black Uniform
85 Devan Dubnyk - Black Uniform
94 Kyle Palmieri - White Uniform
97 Gabriel Landeskog - Black Uniform
98 Marc-Andre Fleury - Black Uniform
100 Nikita Kucherov - White Uniform
116 Claude Giroux - Black Uniform
120 Braden Holtby - White Uniform
121 Mikko Rantanen - Black Uniform
122 Ryan O'Reilly - Black Uniform
123 Jeff Skinner - White Uniform
127 Clayton Keller - Black Uniform
129 Elias Pettersson - Black Uniform
134 Sebastian Aho - White Uniform
135 Johnny Gaudreau - Black Uniform
140 Cam Atkinson - Black Uniform
145 Mathew Barzal - Black Uniform
149 Joe Pavelski - Black Uniform
150 Connor McDavid - Black Uniform

And the second one is super cool, and apparently super short printed. It is the "Pond Hockey" parallel, featuring an outdoors-looking background that reminds you of playing outside on the pond in winter. Check them out!



These guys look to be very popular already, with some big sales registered on eBay.

Just a couple more fun things to look out for when you're cracking into Platinum!

Those Pond Hockey inserts are super cool! Saw someone pull an Ovechkin earlier this week.

Nice, thanks for the heads up!

You can add #107 John Carlson to the All Star List as I pulled one yesterday in my boxes.

How rare are the pond hockey? Numbered? Same number for each player or various?

I suspect it will be the case that UD gives us their usual "we will let the market decide the scarcity" response to any inquiries.

The Pond Hockey ones look great, and I think UD did an awesome job with them.

Is anyone else tiered of reading about "Easter Eggs" though? Just tell us what's on the checklist......

How much less fun is that?
