I would, considering you could get some sick Price's, Heyward's, Moustakas' and LaPorta's in every box. If you have the money and that's not an issue I would do.

Lonestar- I would say yes, I have opened 3+ cases of Hobby and been pretty dispppointed in the lack of Parallel Autos and Base set parallels-- Jumbo is definitely the way to go on this product- even more so than in past years

That would be my question as well, I would like to hear yes because that would really help on the parallels.

I think its random, but in my case
I got 1 chrome, and 2 scout autos per box
Except 1 box had 2 chrome and 1 scout....
the Signs of the Future Box Loader seemed to be an extra Auto
Of course that is just one case, so hardly for sure

I think they stacked a lot more of the colored autos in Jumbo boxes, rather than hobby.

Are the scout autos actually worth anything? because i see no point in having them at all...

About $2 "Topps" on Check Out My Cards was what I got for them.

My case of Jumbos had zero base autos, not a big deal, but collation was also terrible in case that matters.

seems iffy to me..

8-10 auto chromes to 12
and you get 8 auto scouts which are pointless
and 8 box toppers which are iffy...

only advantage is 1 parallel per pack and more refractor types...

is that worth the $100 diff since you're getting less chrome autos?

Well, plus the 12 box cases have been on sale the past couple of weekends.

Was disappointed with the Jumbo
Got 9 prospect autos
15 Scouts
8 SOTF
2 Rookie autos

I broke 2 Hobby cases, and got most of my Prospect autos there
If I remember correctly, like 6 of the 9 Autos from Jumbo were NICE
Bumgarner, Moustakas, Laporta, Price ETC
Dont remember much about the refractor breakdown between the cases.
If I had to choose, I would go for hobby

Really, I think I would try some 08EEE or 08 DPP first
