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.
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.

out; always confirm on the retailer’s own page before buying.
A solid first box. Cheap to crack, fun to rip, and you'll still land the year's rookies without dropping serious cash.
Q2What are the key rookies in 2021-22 Extended Series?
The product features 50 additional Young Guns rookies (cards 701–750) that wrap up the season's rookie class. Notable names include Alexander Holtz, John-Jason Peterka, and others. These appear at 1:4 packs in the base set and also show up in retro inserts like 2006-07 Young Guns Retro and other themed sets.
Q3Does this product have autographs?
No, 2021-22 Extended Series does not include autographed cards. It's a base and insert-focused product. If you're hunting for signed cards, you'll want to look at premium products like SP Authentic or Black Diamond.
Q4What makes the throwback inserts special?
Extended Series brings back classic Upper Deck designs from the past: 2006-07 Young Guns Retro (4 per box), 2005-06 Black Diamond Retro (2 per box with 1–4 star tiers), and 1999-2000 SPx Retro (1 per box). These appeal to longtime collectors and add variety beyond the modern UD Canvas and HoloGrFx sets.
Q5How do the Young Guns parallels work?
Base Young Guns come in multiple parallels: French (1:120 packs), Clear Cut (1:288 packs, hobby-exclusive), Exclusives (/100), and High Gloss (/10). The numbered versions are scarcer and more valuable. You'll pull about 6 Young Guns per box on average.
Q6What's the difference between hobby and retail versions?
Hobby boxes have 24 packs of 8 cards each and include the hobby-exclusive Clear Cut parallel. Retail and blaster boxes have different pack counts and don't include Clear Cut. Hobby is the standard for serious collectors.
Q7Is Extended Series worth opening at current prices?
Extended is a solid value if you're chasing Young Guns rookies or love throwback inserts. It's cheaper than Series 1 or 2 and offers good insert variety. However, with no guaranteed hits, it's more of a set-building product than a hit-chasing one.
Q8What veterans are featured in the base set?
The base set includes 200 new veteran cards (501–700) covering all 32 NHL teams, plus All-Star cards of players like Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews, and Marc-André Fleury. You'll also find legends like Joe Thornton and Zdeno Chara.
Q9When did 2021-22 Upper Deck Extended Series come out?
It dropped August 17, 2022.
