Was out at the mall today and decided to hit the LCS and try a couple packs of the new OPC. I'm so glad I did! I was going to wait until the card show next weekend but I have no willpower and I couldn't wait.
Here we go! From the very first pack:

Not a bad way to start! So I tried another. And another. I busted 4 more packs, not a mediocre pack among them. I figure I got most of the goodies out of the box but who knows.

Got a black rainbow, playoff beard, a nice Habs leaders insert and a few retro stars. For me that's about as good as it gets but it gets better. I decided to give the OPC a rest and try the new Artifacts (those being my two favorite products). Nothing spectacular but not bad either:

With my last $5 I decided to go with Black Diamond and was well rewarded!

I decided to quit while I was ahead. I'll save the rest of my money for picking up singles at the card show. The Bailey/Moulson and the Seguin RC are FT. All of the OPC is NFT except maybe the Martinez blank back for the right card once the pricing comes out.
