So yesterday I watched 4 cases of the new 2015 Inception being opened. Got in on 2 of them for the Packers, and Packers, Saints, Seahawks, and Cardinals respectively. Here's my thoughts on the product.
This year, it seems to be a completely Rookie based product, with the vets only having parallels (didn't know this when I bought into the breaks...I was hoping for a veteran hit lol). I love the design this year! Some teams don't even have hits though. Giants, Patriots, Bengals, and one other team only have base parallels.
In those 4 boxes, only a few rookies seemed to be popping up. Tops on the list, Cameron Artis-Payne (sp?) for the Panthers. I swear, he was in every other box! Bryce Petty for the Jets was a close second. Leonard Williams made a few brief appearances. Nathan (?) Diggs of the Vikings was in a lot, as were a no name RB for the Browns, and WR for the Jags. Once case had 4 Phillip Dorset hits in it. No Mariota or Winston in the 4 cases I saw yesterday. Brett Hundley of the packers had a couple cards, all in one case.
No Melvin Gordon, a couple Sean Mannions, and 1 nice card each for Ameer Abdullah and Tod Gurley. Highlight of the night? 1/1 Nike Swoosh of David Johnson, RB, Cardinals (thankfully in the box I bought into! Maybe I'll get my money back!).
All in all, a very nice looking product, but I wouldn't waste the money. If you like the veteran parallels, I'd buy them as singles. If rookies are your thing, maybe trying to find some cheaper case breaks, but the cases seem loaded with "junk". Too bad, considering I like the looks of this one!
Hope this helps!
