In my opinion this is the product of the year in Football if you like Game Used. There are some of the most impressive patches I've ever seen from ANY product. The only draw back for me is the auto's on foil, if you've ever tried to clean a card do it carefully with a foil auto, they rub off, i know (now). Having the auto's embedded is a plus as that will help protect them a bit.

If this product is as good next season it's where a good part of my card budget will be spent.

The only bad thing is, with a new product like this not being released by UD, there's the likelihood that it will be very undervalued by the powers that be...

I do agree, though, that this stuff is hot. I've gotten some real nice patches and short print autos out of it for the ol' PC...

Everything I pulled and saw pulled looked real nice. It would get my vote for best GU cards. I still would not look away at some other products though. The thing is it would be nice to see those kind of sweet swatches in some of the other products and not just limited to that one.

Very nice product that I've seen - excellent break potential and nice patches. Gets my vote for Product of the Year. I still don't put much stock in the guide prices as ebay is still a better measure of "value".
