Well said, I guess it totally depends on how and what you collect. I only collect 3 versions of the autos so I love that this set makes it easy to get some legacy versions of some bigger characters.I think it would be an awesome entry point for someone new as well. Yes it drives the prices down but it makes it affordable for some people to grab bigger names . I don’t want to pay 300-500 for Maisee. I don’t collect for long term value or scarcity so I have an entirely different perspective. Getting a Conleth, or Hodor at 10 makes me happy even if it’s now a 15 dollar card. Wait until we get whatever the hell this next GOT Relics product coming out. Now that sounds scary to me

There are what six different base parallels in this set? Then the price point, a lot of great signers and per the sell sheet you are guaranteed six out of the top 12 signers, ten out of 12 wont cover the cost of the box. This will be loaded name wise, what used to be only the top three picks doing well, will now be six to ten, but only in group break format, not necessarily if you compared it to a single box price
