I'd say Donruss Elite or LCM (but I'm biased as DLP is the best "overall" company in my opinion)

Im a huge NT fan, but this years just didnt impress me. I also love SPA but there were so many boxes that were missing hits, i couldnt justify giving them best product of the year. I picked ultimate because I feel they improved the most from previous years.

based on the value of the hits per box i would go with LCM as you got 4 hits and usually got a patch and an auto in each box.

Yep, Upper Deck was my favorite this year because of the fantastic photography... go figure...


"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

I vow to no longer purchase any product that features sticker autographs...
If your user name is this color I'm afraid I'll have to pass on any proposed transactions at this time.

I vote Classics as well, I very rarely buy the higher end boxes unless I get some birthday money or something. I liked Rookie and Stars too, but that is just me.....

I love Leaf Limited although I did not like some of the very low numbered single color patches. That was stupid. NT was great again also, TL cool.gif

I haven't opened anything on the list, but just based on box breaks and videos I've seen, I'd have to go with National Treasures by a mile.

This years Leaf Rookies and Stars was great for the price. You can get boxes of it for $55.00 delivered, and there are lots of hits, with some sweet patches.

I votes for NT.

I liked Classics for the longest time but the design/subsets haven't changed and it's starting to get stale. I voted for Upper Deck Ultimate over National Treasures because while both sets look incredible, Ultimate still has on-card autos!
