MVP

Did a 20 box case. Some nice looking parallels and inserts. Hit one auto, two postseason sp, one rc redemption, one plate, one black #/5 and two super script. Collation seems to be an issue in some subsets. Hit 8 or 10 colors and contours. 4 of one dude. Overall, not a terrible rip, but not rushing back to get more either.

I haven't been able to pick up my case from the shop yet... looking at your numbers, especially the color and contours, it seems like they have stretched the product by quite a bit. 18-19 was about 20 per case, 19-20 was about 30 per case (print run bumped from the ~200 to the ~250 number), 20-21 was about 20 per case.
 
I was expecting a few more listings than there were Sunday night. Pickings were slim between the Holidays, a likely stretched product, fewer ebay sellers, and the high priced listing tactics of some of them.

I'm noticing that too with Fleury. I've seen one Contour listed /250 and one Anniversary Gold. I am guessing the gold script and gold anniversary are /100 but they didn't have the time to serial # them based on odds?

Gold Script and Gold Anniversary are not numbered.

Yes I am aware of that, but if you notice, there are no cards /100 on the checklist like years past. That is why I am making a logical guess that they are /100 based upon similar odds to last year's cards /100.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the last year that Gold Scripts were numbered they were xxx/150 so this years could be /150 or maybe even /200
 
I'm part way into my case. Massive improvement from Upper Deck QC-wise. No corner crimps or severe roller marks from this print vendor. Quite refreshing after the problems noted in the 20-21 release.

I think my hit numbers will look similar to what's been noted. No duplicate Colors and Contours so far.

Awesome to hear about improved quality. I have a pre-order for UD1 21-22. it would be nice to get mint cards.

Enjoy your break! :)
 
Curse of the commentator -- my last box had a duplicate Color and Contours (Kubalik)

Final Hit numbers

1 Rookie Redemption
1 Rookie Auto
2 Super Scripts /25
1 Black Super Script /5
2 Post Season
8 Color and Contours /250
1 Color and Contours /20

11 Gold 20th Anniversary Parallels (this was the "box hit" used to stretch the product, last year print run was /100, this year appears to be over 250 copies)

With the just the 2 Super Scripts and the 9 Colors and Contours the release has a 3.2 (mid-strength) beer feel to it this year.
