First and foremost, special thanks to Clay from Topps for providing us at Hobby Insider the chance to review one of there newest products.

Each sealed box contains 24 packs of 7 cards each (4 Bowman, 2 Bowman Chrome, and 1 Bowman Gold parallel) in two 166 card base sets (Bowman and Bowman Chrome) including 36 Rookies, 10 Celebrity Rookies, and 10 Autograph Rookies (Bowman Chrome versions > #'d to 250). >>> Each box contains ONE Memorabilia card and ONE Autograph card. Parallel sets: Gold 1:1, Refractor (#'d to 300; Autographs > #'d to 50), X-fractor (#'d to 150; Autographs > #'d to 25), Gold Refractor (#'d to 50; Autographs > #'d to 5), and SuperFractor (#'d to 1). Inserts: Bowman Scouting Report box loader 1:box, Memorabilia 1:24 (Skills Nation, Bravo!, Bowman Beginnings, and Welcome to the Show! > #'d to 100), Autographs 1:24 (Signs of the Future and Back to the Future), and Autograph Memorabilia cards (Bravo! > #'d to 9 and Welcome to the Show! > #'d to 5).

A very nice gloss finish that enhances the appearance of the base cards (black-bordered). The Bowman Chrome cards are of superior quality and they look fabulous. The scans never do justice to the chrome type cards. The back of the cards have all the vital stats of each player along with Bowman Insider which stats in areas such as Rewind, Skills and Next Level. The front of the cards are very well designed with a nice action shot of the player. The front also has all of the information along the right and bottom borders.

The same basic design is used for the rookies as the base design. The Rookies are indicated on the front in Bold silver lettering on a black background in the lower right-hand corner. The rookie cards also have a Bowman lettering backdrop that is quite unique. The rookie cards come in three versions, regular with black border, chrome and gold border thicker stock cards. Some of the rookies we pulled were; Maxiell, Warrick, Christie Brinkley, Lee, Wafer, Carmen Electra, Bynum, Granger, Gomes, Frye, Head, Simien and Ewing. 44 rookie cards pullled of one of the variations shown above.

The parallels pulled were the gold bordered thicker card that is inserted in every pack. We also pulled two refractors; one refractor of Brendan Haywood and the other is a Gold Refractor of Corey Magette /50. Just had to put Christie in here somewhere. Real nice Gold bordered rookie card.

The game used card we pulled was an Authentic Game-Worn Jersey of Andrei Kirilenko of the Utah Jazz. Nice design that sort of reminds me of some Bazooka GU I have seen.

We pulled a David Lee Signs of the Future autograph in this box also. Very nice high-quality card with a very nice autograph that is crisp and continuous without any bubbling.
