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 28 retailers we follow for

The deep end. People buy this chasing top rookie patch autos and legend signatures, and the price reflects it.
Q2What's the big chase in this product?
Connor Bedard's Ultimate Rookies Autograph Jumbo Patch. It's numbered to 99, 49, or 25 depending on the player, and landing one is basically the hit of the box. There's also a Jumbo Shield version that's one-of-a-kind.
Q3Am I guaranteed an autograph?
Yes. Every box has at least one autograph card. You'll also get a premium memorabilia, premium tech, or additional autograph card, so you're looking at two hits minimum per box.
Q4What's the base set like?
100 cards total: 75 current NHL veterans and 25 legends. All base cards are numbered to 149, with Blue (/99), Gold (/35), Purple (/15), and Black (/5) parallels. Autograph versions exist too, with vets at 1:8 packs and legends at 1:48.
Q5What are the new inserts this year?
Ultimate Planks is the big debut, featuring memorabilia and autographs with Legendary Shield, Autographs, and Original Six Today Autographs parallels. Crease Collection Auto Relics are also new. Both have low print runs and numbered parallels.
Q6Are there retro-themed cards?
Yeah. There are 2003-04 Ultimate Collection Signatures Rookies Gold Patch cards (capped at 49 copies) and other retro parallels like 2003-04 Signatures and Retro Signatures Rookies that pull from the original set's design.
Q7How low are the print runs on base cards?
Base cards are numbered to just 149, which is extremely low for a modern product. Add in the colored parallels (Black /5, Purple /15, Gold /35, Blue /99) and you've got a lot of scarcity to chase.
Q8What memorabilia inserts are in the product?
There's Ultimate Displays (/125 or less), Ulti-mates (1:8 packs), Ultimate Quad Materials (/149 or less), La Collection Ultime (1:42 packs), Ultimate Rookies Jersey Variations (/499 or less), Ultimate Patches (/10), and Ultimate Shields (1/1).
