2019-20 Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey Hobby Box

Full checklist
2019-20 Upper Deck Series 1 Hockey hobby box
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.
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.
Retail Box
A full box of the individual packs sold loose at big-box stores, often 24 of them. Same base set as the hobby version, with fewer or no guaranteed hits.
Tin
A decorated metal box holding a handful of packs, often with a bonus card inside. The packs are standard product; the tin and its extras are the draw.
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.

Who's 2019-20 Upper Deck Series 1 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.

Jack Hughes, the first overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft, is the marquee Young Gun. Other notable rookies include Adam Fox, Elias Pettersson, and Rasmus Sandin. There are 49 Young Guns total in the set.
How many Young Guns come in a hobby box?
Each hobby box contains six Young Guns rookie cards. They're short prints at 1:4 packs, so you'll typically pull one per pack.
What's the autograph situation in this product?
Autographs are scarce. Signature Sensations land at 1:276 packs, which works out to roughly one autograph per case (12 boxes). There are also extremely rare Ceremonial Puck Drop Autographs at 1:30,000 packs.
