Picked up a box of Contenders a week ago. I knew I'd buy more this weekend. I bought 2 boxes yesterday. Wanted to wait and post them all. I was going to avoid this product this year, but I like the new design. Still waiting on the verified print run from Panini. Due too the new format, I'll post the first 2 boxes here and the next box in a response. I'll also post the Playoff Ticket pulls later today.

Box 1 (2/19/2011)

My 3rd Jahvid Best pull in 7 boxes of Contenders. Love the Eric Berry and the old school proven legends autos.




Box 2 (2/27/2011)


And my 2 favorites from this box:

Scan of the 2nd card is a little off. There is more room on the left side. The sig isn't that close to the edge.

Box 3:

Nice breaks, Mel! Dig that Casares Legendary auto. That might be my favorite subset from Contenders

Thank you. If the preliminary reports are true, there seems like a short printed card is in all the boxes.

I'm surprisingly happy with the breaks. I didn't buy much last year because I hated the design. I've pulled a couple of bigger names and that's always nice. With plans to relocate to Phoenix, it's nice to pick up so many of those players as well (in my other breaks of Contenders).

I sold one Best over the weekend. I'll be more than happy to work something out with you after the official print run comes out. I'll hold on to it for you.

MEL! I need the Berry. I do not have 1 yet. Is that the only one you pulled? I thought I saw one in your last break too.... =0)

I pulled the Playoff Ticket (#/99) in an earlier break. No auto though. I might buy another box or two on my way home from work (to celebrate not being on call). I'll keep you in mind, especially if I get another.

Kansas City is my home town. I always follow the Chiefs from afar. I'm also a big fan of the DBs from the 2010 rookie class.

Nice stuff! With all of those breaks, I bet you have a few of the Super Bowl Tickets inserts that I need to finish my set. Also, I saw a James Starks in a different break in your Bucket that I liked. If you would be willing to part with any of these, please let me know.
