The Box Break:
We hit rookies cards in every pack. We had very few doubles of rookies which is a huge positive. Our rookie pulls were highlighted by top rookies Tim Tebow, Sam Bradford and Dez Bryant.
We pulled a pair of the thick rookie variation cards.
We pulled one blue parallel of Dallas Cowboys stud rooke Dez Bryant. This, in my opinion, is a great looking card.
We pulled one refractor card of rookie QB Dan LeFevor.
We pulled one autographed refractor rookie card of Tony Pike. The card is numbered to 1225.
We pulled a black refractor autographed rookie card of Armanti Edwards. The card is numbered to 99.
For our autographed patch hit, we pulled none other than Tim Tebow. This is a black refractor and is numbered to 99.
Final thoughts:
There is a lot to like about 2010 Topps Platinum Football. The first thing that comes to mind is affordability. I have seen these boxes selling from 80-90 dollars per box. At three autos per box, that is huge value. I continually harp on affordability versus box potential and Platinum definitely delivers. I love that the rookie cards exactly match the base set. Sure the RC logo is on the rookie cards but is there any real need to make totally different rookie cards? It is a set, and it is treated as such. The chrome make up of this set is sure to keep the fans of Topps Finest and Topps Chrome very happy. Honestly, Platinum seems to be a perfect hybrid between two of Topps more distinguished brands. I was fortunate enough to receive this box from Topps, but I had bought several before it arrived at my doorstep. There is nothing negative to say about Topps Platinum. It is great fun ripping the box, all the top rookies are there and the cards are simply some of the best produced. I hope Topps Platinum is a brand carried on every year much like Chrome and Finest.
Product Rating:
Value = 5
Innovation = 5
Fun and Experience = 5
