Frequently asked

Who's 2016-17 Upper Deck Fleer Showcase for?

The deep end. People buy this chasing top rookie patch autos and legend signatures, and the price reflects it.

What's the main draw of this product?

You're getting one autograph per box, and most are rookie Hot Prospects cards. The set also leans hard on throwback inserts from the 1990s like Metal Universe and Flair, so if you love that era's design, this scratches that itch.

What are the key rookie autographs?

Hot Prospects Autos are the headliners, numbered to either 299 or 499 depending on the tier. There are also Hot Prospects Auto Patches with relic pieces, numbered to 135 or 85. Both have Red Glow and White Hot parallels that get scarce fast.

How do the parallels work?

Base cards and Hot Prospects rookies come in Red Glow (1:6 packs for base, /25 for rookies) and White Hot (/25 base, /5 rookies). Most inserts also have their own parallel tiers, like Precious Metal Gems in Red, Blue, Green, and Purple. The higher the color tier, the fewer copies exist.

What's the base set like?

100 veteran cards featuring stars like Sidney Crosby, Connor McDavid, and Alexander Ovechkin. It's a solid roster, but the real chase is the Hot Prospects rookies (#111-199) and Hot Prospects Quads, which mix four rookies on one card.

Is this a good value compared to the 2015-16 version?

This year's box price is lower because it drops from three hits per box to one. If you're hunting autos, the odds are tighter, but the lower entry cost makes it more accessible for collectors who just want to rip packs for inserts and parallels.

What's the deal with EX-2017?

It's a brand that was popular in other sports 20 years ago, now making its Showcase debut. You get one per box on average (1:18 packs). The real chase is the Essential Credentials parallels, which are sequentially numbered to 42 or less and extremely tough to pull.

Are there any other notable inserts besides the big ones?

Yeah. Ultra Rookies (#/599) with Platinum Medallion (#/25) and Violet Medallion (#/25) parallels, Flair Hot Gloves (1:90), Ultra Scoring Kings (1:12), and Metal Universe Planet Metal (1:60) all show up. There's a lot of variety in what you can hit.

When did 2016-17 Upper Deck Fleer Showcase come out?

It dropped March 15, 2017.
