What are these options?
- Mega Box
- A mid-size retail box, bigger than a blaster and smaller than a hobby box. Mega-exclusive parallels are the main draw, and some megas guarantee a hit.
- Blaster Box
- The small retail box sold at stores like Walmart and Target, usually the cheapest full box on the shelf. Autographs are not guaranteed, but many blasters carry exclusive parallels you cannot pull from a hobby box.

Frequently asked
What are the key rookie cards in 2018 Prizm?
Baker Mayfield, Saquon Barkley, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson are the marquee rookies. Josh Allen's base and Prizm parallels command the highest prices, while Lamar Jackson and Saquon Barkley are also heavily chased.
How many autographs are in a hobby box?
You'll pull 3 autographs per box on average. Most are Rookie Autographs, but the premium Rookie Patch Autographs are a case hit (1 per 12-box case), making them much scarcer.
What are Prizm Parallels and how many come in a box?
Prizm Parallels are the signature chromium variations in 21 different colors and finishes. A hobby box contains 10 Prizm Parallels, with 9 of them serial-numbered. They range from common base Prizms to ultra-rare Black Finite (1/1) cards.
What inserts should I know about?
Inserts average 1 per 3 packs (about 4 per box). Returning sets include Hype, Illumination, Instant Impact, Rookie Introductions, and Stained Glass. New themes are 2018 HOF Tribute, Apex, Grit, and Trifecta. All regular inserts have Gold Mojo (/10) and Black Finite (1/1) parallels.
How is the base set structured?
The 300-card base set splits 200 veterans (#1-200) and 100 rookies (#201-300). You'll pull 2 rookie base cards per pack, so a 12-pack box gives you good rookie coverage.
Are there any exclusive parallels for hobby boxes?
Yes. Light Blue (/199) and Orange (/249) Prizm parallels are hobby-exclusive. Rookie Patch Autographs are also hobby-exclusive and only available as a case hit.
What makes Josh Allen's card so expensive?
Josh Allen's rookie card is the most sought-after in the set. His Prizm parallel and other color variations command premium prices, especially graded copies, making it the top chase card for collectors.
