The Cup sellsheet on magazine exchange?

Wow. Not much to say. Looks amazing as usual, and I really like the new subsets this year. Can't wait!
 
I love the Ovechkin card with the Tampa Bay Lightning patch. Same division, right?

(awaiting the usual "it's just a mock-up, cut them some slack" posts)
 
The hinged "books" do absolutly nothing for me. They are cool in theory but hard to display and once you open and close them a few times it wrecks the card. The dual cuts also do nothing for me. I much prefer the 05-06 Cuts with an actual picture of the player with the auto. The ARPs are nice but dont leave enough room for a nice big auto. Scripted swatches are nice and I do like the Scripted Sticks. Property Of cards are always favorites of mine and the Shields are also always nice, but overall I dont really like it so far. Kudos for UD trying something sort of new with the "books" but I'm not overly excited. Thats just me though.
 
Agreed on the book cards, not a fan at all but I am really liking the designs on most everything else.
 
I like most of it, really cant get over the book style, how on earth do you display those cards, and like fastmax said once you open them a couple times, the crease will start to become damaged. secondary market here I come. love the POE as always.
 
Very nice looking stuff, not sure if I'll be picking anything up, but look forward to seeing some breaks.

Good luck to all those breaking The Cup.
 
I didn't like last year's rookie design and got pounded on by those saying it's just a mock up. (The real thing was exactly the same)

So I expect to equally get pounded on for the same reason when I say this year's look fantastic.

I'm not bullish on the book idea either. I don't know if it's something hockey fans are going to like.

The cut autos look like Legendary Signatures Baseball which seemed to be of crap design from some of the breaks I watched.

Stick Signings is a nice addition to the cup.
 
Coming this Winter.......:devil:

At least Upper Deck makes an attempt to create new sets each year in The Cup. They don't do it in the rest of their products.
