I have decided to incorporate basketball cards into the blog, and I've decided to start with 2016-17 Panini Donruss Optic. The set this year includes a 50 card rookie set. Each hobby box includes: 4 cards per pack, 20 packs in total, for a total of 80 cards 1 Autograph 20 inserts or parallels I'm really sorry I don't know very much about basketball so this review isn't as precise and specific as others.

The 2017 Babe Ruth Immortal Collection being released by Leaf is a doozy. Each box is worth approximately $250.00 so pretty pricey but you get a lot of amazing cards in it. The set is very rare as there are only 1750 boxes in existence. Each box contains 6 cards, which include: 2 base cards or parallels 1 game used bat relic from the Yankees 1 game used bat relic from the Red Sox 2 Yankee Stadium Seat relic As you can see this box is loaded, and pretty cool.
