What are these options?
- Hobby Box
- The full-size box sold through card shops rather than big-box stores. It has the most packs and the best odds, and most modern hobby boxes guarantee at least one autograph or memorabilia card. Pack and card counts vary by product line. Older listings sometimes call this a wax box.
- Cases
- The factory-sealed carton a product ships in, holding a set number of boxes. A full case is the whole carton; an inner case is a smaller sealed block from inside it. Case buyers get untouched pack sequencing and a lower price per box. Some rare cards are seeded about once per case, which is what collectors mean by a case hit.

Frequently asked
Who's 2023-24 Upper Deck SkyBox E-X 2000 for?
For collectors who want hits without Cup money. Figure on an auto or relic every box or two, with rookies you'll actually recognize.
What makes this set special compared to other 2023-24 hockey releases?
It's a throwback to the 1996-97 E-X 2000 basketball set, bringing back that late-1990s design with the cloudy backdrop and die-cut inserts. The inserts carry big designs like those early E-X sets, and autographs are on the checklist but not guaranteed, making it feel more like a hunt than a guaranteed-hit product.
Who are the key rookies in this set?
Connor Bedard is the marquee rookie, along with Luke Hughes, Zach Benson, and the rest of the 2023-24 class. There are 50 rookies total in the base set, and they appear every other pack.
How do the parallels work?
Base cards have eight parallel tiers: All-Access Credentials (1:108 packs for vets, 1:216 for rookies), Credentials (/499), Blue Credentials (/299), Essential Credentials (/99), Gold Essential Credentials (/50), Gold Credentials (/10), Printing Plates (1/1 with four color versions each), and VIP Credentials (1/1).
What's the autograph situation?
Autographs are not guaranteed. You'll pull about four per case, roughly one every third box. Autographics rookies are 1:140 packs while veterans are 1:280. Other inserts like Star Date 3000 and Index Movers also have rare autograph parallels.
Which inserts should I hunt for?
Star Date 3000 is the most accessible at 1:6 packs. If you want scarce hits, go for Double Helix (1:288 packs) or E-Xceptional (1:576 packs). Index Movers and Hall or Nothing fall in the middle at 1:7.5 and 1:30 packs respectively.
What's in an average hobby box?
You'll get 24 base cards, 12 base rookies, 2 parallels (either base or rookie), and 8 inserts. That's 48 cards total per box.
How does this compare to recent Upper Deck hockey releases?
Unlike guaranteed-hit products, E-X 2000 is more of a chase set where autographs are rare and the focus is on inserts and parallels. The design and insert variety lean heavily on nostalgia for the original E-X sets from the late 1990s.
