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.
These are the best prices we could find for this product across the 25 retailers we follow for
2024-25 Upper Deck Ice, checked daily. Prices move constantly and stock sells
out; always confirm on the retailer’s own page before buying.
For collectors who want hits without Cup money. Figure on an auto or relic every box or two, with rookies you'll actually recognize.
Q2What makes Ice Premieres the main chase?
Ice Premieres are acetate rookie cards that make up 100 of the 250-card base set. They're numbered to /999, /799, /499, /249, or /99 depending on the player, and every box averages three of them. The Gold (/25) and Black (1/1) parallels are especially sought after.
Q3How many autographs should I expect per box?
You're guaranteed 1 autograph or memorabilia card per box. That's either a hard-signed auto from the base set, an Ice Premieres auto, a Glacial Graphs acetate auto, or a hit from one of the insert sets.
Q4What's the deal with Glacial Graphs?
Glacial Graphs are acetate autograph cards featuring stars and legends. Standard versions fall about 1:12 hobby boxes. Black parallels are numbered as low as /5 and feature silver ink signatures. Some also have inscriptions.
Q5Are there any new inserts this year?
Yes. SP Ice is a new 100-card insert with four different versions of 25 players, ranging from 1:48 to 1:288 packs depending on rarity. Arcticulates is also new, printed on foil stock with Gold (/99) and Black (/10) parallels. Exquisite Crystal is a new plexi-material set.
Q6What parallels should I know about?
Base veterans and rookies have Emerald Green (1:2 packs), Purple (1:6 packs), Greyscale (/99), and Black (1/1). There are also rare White Snowflake Autographs (1:288 packs for vets, 1:216 for rookies) and Red Autographs (/5). Ice Premieres have their own parallel tiers: Blue (/599), Green (/399), Gold (/25), and Black (1/1).
Q7What's Sub Zero and how often does it show up?
Sub Zero is a returning insert with Stars (1:32 packs) and Rookies (numbered to 799 or 599). There's a Gold parallel of the Stars limited to just 8 copies. You'll pull one Sub Zero card per box on average.
Q8What are Frozen in Ice cards?
Frozen in Ice are rip cards that contain embedded Ice Premieres Minis acetate rookie cards inside. They fall 1:24 packs. You can also pull Gold (/99) and Autograph (/15) parallels of the minis, so a regular rip card might hide a rare mini inside.
Q9How does the base set break down?
The 250-card base set has 100 veterans, 50 non-acetate rookies, and 100 Ice Premieres acetate rookies. Every pack contains about one non-acetate rookie and one Emerald Green parallel on average.
