Random Card Of The Day: Panini Black Friday Draft Day Cam Newton Jersey Card

Picked this up off from eBay last year during the 2011 Panini Black Friday craze! Paid a handsome $30 for the card...not something I normally do but I did. It was Cam Newton and a sweet looking Black Friday cards that was short printed!! How could I not have! Then came the sophomore slump this year.....but I believe he will be back strong next year.

Review: Upper Deck College Legends 2011

It has been awhile since we here at Sport Card Collectors have busted a box of Upper Deck product..so here we go.

We didn't know how this product would turn out since it was done College style when it used to be an NFL product but we were pleasantly surprised and Upper Deck did a great job with it.

Now onto our full review:

 Packaging: Barry Sanders catches our eye. Overall not a bad design.

Base Cards: Just like the design they did in '97, Upper Deck went back to their roots and created the college version like the popular NFL version.

 

Inserts: Inserts in this product were not plentiful. Which is not a bad thing. The design on the inserts however all feel the same. Except the card was turned a different way. The inserts were not that eye appealing.

Memorabilia: N/A

 

Autographs: This is what the product is truly about. With 3 guaranteed per box we got four. Nice autograph checklist and you can hit it big with stars like Dan Marino and Barry Sanders. We got Andy Dalton as our top notch autograph from the box. We also got Ron Dayne, Anotonio Freeman and Dwight Stephenson. The only issue we had with the autographs was actually kinda seeing the autograph. Some of the photos used in the product are dark and with blue ink you might have trouble seeing the auto as it may blend in with the base card which was almost the case for Antonio Freeman. But these are all on card on a plus side.

Overall: Not much in terms of rookie cards. A decent base design. But the most important part of this product is its autos. You can hit it big or have a decent break like us. It all depends. Its not a product for everyone, mostly autograph hounds. But that doesn't mean we still don't recommend it!

Ratings:  Bloggers Note: Our ratings are based specifically on the blaster, box or packs we opened and do not express what the overall product could bring. Ratings based on a 1-5. 1 Being the lowest and 5 being the highest.
                Packaging: 3
                Base Design: 3
                Insert Design: 1
                Memorablila/Autographs: 4
                Blaster, Hobby Box, or Pack Value: 5
