I assume same card as the LBJ. JKidd also won ROTY (granted co with Grant Hill)

Yes, this
Also--Wemby's first game, which they supposedly have memorabilia for in the set, was against Dallas (Kidd was coaching).

His Bowman U 1st autos are on card. They're redemptions tho. Bowman's best are stickers.

The 2022-23 BCU auto and the 2022-23 BU Inception are on-card autos. The 2022-23 Bowman U Best is sticker auto.

Doesn't matter if scared or not, still got 25 percent chance to get pennies on the dollars, 50-75 percent chance to make back 20 percent, and like 5 percent chance to overachieve.

not trying to defend breakers, but you got 12.5% chance of hitting massive (the RPA) 12.5% chance of slight profit (his auto) and 75% of huge L (even then you still go home with a base cards which should sell 200$ or more). Way better value proposition than most of poopnini products

Based on looking at the parallels and total autos on the checklist:

1. Looks like there will be 3,000 boxes of this made
2. 256 of those boxes (8.5%) will contain a third auto card..there are 96 total dual autos made, and 160 of the "insert autos" (10 card insert set, autographed versions numbered /10, /5, /1) that would be extra on top of the RPA auto and other guaranteed auto.
3. There will be 56 total 1/1's in the product : 20 base supers, 10 "insert auto" supers, 10 auto supers, 6 dual auto supers, and 10 RPA supers.

In before a box rises to $18k.

Be on the lookout for Dual-Autographs Bonus Hits (Dual-Autograph Hits replace Base Card in 1:70 Base Card Packs. I think there are only 86 dual autos (LBJ only signed /5 and /1). So total 6000 boxes? (70x86 = 6,020) but I know based on the relic count, there are only 3000 of those (1 per box), so the math doesn't compute.

Correct---86 (not 96 as I stated) dual autos.

I'm still coming up with 3000 boxes...2 autos guaranteed per box, 1 RPA and one of the other autos (3000 total of each)..

[obzezzed]

Are there really going to be 6,000 Wemby autos in this product? How can the market sustain high prices (multiple thousands of dollars) for each auto? If this releases at 10k a box, aren't all boxes going to lose 5-6k on average?

Also can anyone confirm the box price? Thx.

[coltsnsox07]

Hell There's probably 6K Wemby base autos in Topps Chrome basketball, damn near every case had one.

[Tonic3]

Well BO is offering a pre-sale on this for only $10k. What a steal

I suppose it at least sets the ceiling for this product and somewhat helps prevent price gouging
