Something new? Something creative? Some new types of cards (w/ the fossil cards, etc.)? I don't know, they don't seem interesting to me, and look kind of ugly imo. ;)
 
I am disappointed with the quality of the cardboard, but I like the creativity that went into it. For $6 a pack, you think they'd use better cardboard. I know a guy who pulled a great auto on the small ones and it opened with a crease accross the middle. I doubt it would have happened with better paper.
I get a kick out of the Natural History cards. It's just soooo weird to see a caveman that looks more evolved that Darcy Tucker.... Don't tell him I said that please.

I was excited for this product because I love the A&G concept, ordered my box early, saw a ton of weak breaks, broke my mediocre box, saw more weak breaks, then just bought the fossil I wanted in the first place and moved on to something else. Adore the concept, just didn't have the value in the boxes that you would expect for the price. Hopefully these fossil redemption cards are produced and shipped soon, as I'm sure it will still be a cool collectible to own.
 
It's a set collector's product - if you're going elephant hunting looking for big hits - you're begging to be disappointed. It's also something different - so the vast majority of hockey rippers aren't going to like it, but it's got its own niche - there's plenty of people working on the sets.
