2012-13 Upper Deck Black Diamond Hockey Details
2012-13 Upper Deck Black Diamond Hockey comes 250-base-card set with 24 five-card packs per box along with a bonus pack.
Black Diamond will feature parallels including a new emerald version (numbered to 10) and sapphire 1-of-1. In addition, Upper Deck states on the sell sheet more than half of the cards will be autographed.
One box should yield six Double Diamond Veterans, three Triple Diamond Veterans, three Triple Diamond Rookie Gems, one quadruple Diamond Rookie Gems, one Ruby, Emerald or Sapphire parallel and two Black Diamond Jerseys.
The Black Diamond jerseys will have a puzzled-theme format with four- and six-card puzzles with the 1984 NHL Draft Class with player such as Mario Lemieux, Patrick Roy and Luc Robataille.
Case breakers will find four to five GEMography autographs.
Another highlight of Black Diamond includes Sidney Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin hard-signed buyback autographs.
i like the look of the Brodeur triple diamond, very nice
I’ve opened 4 boxes out of my case so far. No “hits” as of yet…..hoping the other boxes give me something to make up for the lack of true rookies. This set is still a thousand times better than the Upper Deck Series 1 release. Nothing but dissapointment there.
