Hmmm...those EPIX's ineed looks interesting!
Just hope that I have some to chase?

 

[lucscaps]

at 80 this looks like it could be some real value hit wise, although the hits may be watered down.

they look really cool regardless,

this is where select should have been

I like the Epix cards. If Lindros is included I will give it a run.

 

[mightykeebs]

So what will be te true rc? Hard to tell from the preview as there are a lot
That show the rc logo.....

 

[Ferris]

The Epix look gorgeous. The rookies are a disappointment.

Rookies look like the base. RC logo in the top right hand corner.

 

[Ferris]

Rookies look like the base. RC logo in the top right hand corner.

Then I retract my statement. The rookies look nice. The horizontal auto/jersey thingies look bland. Cash cow-ish.

I also just found out that there will be hot boxes.

 

[vegaspuck]

C'mon...did you think I'd do an EPIX set without a Lindros?

And yes, there are hot boxes:

5 boxes per case will have at least 5 hits
2 boxes per case will have at least 6 hits

Every box has at least one auto jersey rookie.

On average find these every case:

At least one Green auto, mem or autograph mem hit (#'d 5 or less)
At least one Slideshow insert (#'d 100 or less)
At least 4 Platinum Mirror Parallels (#'d 25 or less)
At least 4 Clear Cloth jerseys (#'d 100 or less)
At least 1 Clear Cloth Prime or Patch parallel (#'d 25 or less)
At least 1 EPIX memorabilia card
At least 6 Prime/Patch memorabilia variations including Rookie Autos

4 packs per box. Is it worth $20/pack? Ouch. This should be a $40-$50 product, not $80.

Technically this product is more expensive than Select (by the pack)

There are products that release with 4-6 jerseys/autos per box at $50 a box?

Would love to know which ones.

And the jerseys/autos are all stars or top rookies?

SPGU has lots of jerseys/autos and is $20 a pack. Not a lot of fanfare over pulling a jersey from there.

I guess it depends on how big the hits are. If I'm spending $80 (which I won't be) and pulling 4 jerseys, ya, I won't be impressed.

I can't say that I disagree with Ferris thus far. In that sense, this is a successful spiritual successor (say that three times fast!) to the original Totally Certified - expensive packs, many of which may provide questionable value.

I will also add my voice to the chorus of approval for the Epix.

 

[SNobles]

Some of the cards look really cool. I will reserve my overall feelings until I see the first few case breaks. I hope this is not another $1 GU product.

 

[Burner]

Looks pretty bland to be honest, I was hoping something a little different than what we've seen from Certified the last couple of years but it looks pretty similar despite the name change

Are we taking wagers that there will be a "Totally Certified" promotion to follow? You know, to "add" value?

Aren't all the products these days $1 gu products? :duh:


The epix green moment quad memorabilia cards look really cool, I like the look of most of the stuff. The platinum golds are pretty sharp.

 

[spooner9ball]

EPICally ugly, that's about it. Other than the green foiled cards, I don't see a single attractive card in the lot. Mind you, I haven't liked any of the Panini products since 10-11, although I really dug this years Dominion.

C'mon...did you think I'd do an EPIX set without a Lindros?

And it just got real.

I loved Totally Certified in the past, I'm excited to see the new version!
