The Bowman Draft mega box packs should have the lazer parallels, according to the description: "while the new Bowman Draft Mega Box debuts with exclusive Mega Chrome technology, Laser Refractors and Mega Autographs for a vibrant new way to collect."

Not in the product, but Frank Cairone (Brewers 2nd round pick) was evidently badly injured in a car accident last night.

Doubtful. Did you order Chrome Update Sapphire?

Nope, haven’t been able to preorder sapphire in two years

. Weird, guess we’ll find out was think this week was draft release.

I grabbed a box of heritage from fanatics, odd that it’s coming up in the manifest as coming from topps.

Draft comes out the 14th, and Megas the 28th.

I want the 2025 Bowman Draft Dan Marino Superfractor Autograph

JECpsu · 01-08-2026, 09:56 AM

I know the odds are not out for 2025 yet, but from last year it looks like things like Spotlight, Etched in Glass, & other SPs are in the Hobby & not the Super Jumbo size? Is this standard year to year. Since getting back into the hobby I have gravitated more towards enjoying prospecting w/ Bowman than Topps Flagship & was curious on the advantages & disadvantages between formats before (trying) to grab some boxes.

[Not concerned about flipping anything for $ & fully realize its more than likely a loss to open...just enjoy opening and collecting]

maplefrost · 01-08-2026, 10:54 PM

wondering if mega autos actually have the 1st logo on card or those would be like bowman chrome mega "variation" autos...

prospectorgems · 01-09-2026, 06:37 PM

Got my shipping notifications today. For some reason I thought this product was still a few weeks away from releasing.

I'm going to assume they don't, just like Bowman Chrome mega autos.

ravensgc_5 · 01-10-2026, 06:00 PM

The prices I've seen are just absurd. $750 for a hobby box, about $1,000 for breakers delight, and I'm guessing super jumbo is probably going to be around $1300-1400. You have to hit something big or end up taking a bath on this.

IronCladLou · 01-10-2026, 06:10 PM

My LCS has the Super Jumbo for $1000USD.

I miss opening a super jumbo

bulljh · 01-11-2026, 12:03 PM

The money spent for these prospects which 90% don’t make it to the big leagues is absolutely insane

Only if you buy immediately after product release. Patience can pay off.

My case is out for delivery!

Have fun. Probably one of the few people with a chance to do well on this if you list everything tonight at a 24 hour auction on eBay.

chrispy987 · 01-12-2026, 04:56 PM

My case of Super Jumbos arrived today. Can't get myself to open though.

netmasters · 01-12-2026, 05:00 PM

You can tell they are getting in peoples hands with what's hitting ebay. The 1st Eli Willits auto has been listed.

I opened my case. I’ll share pics soon. Probably an average case.

Here’s what I think were the best hits

At first glance, cards look gradeable

daeve · 01-12-2026, 09:22 PM

that looks solid, maybe even above average

wilsonsingles · 01-12-2026, 09:23 PM

Did you average one non base auto per box?

saw a couple case breaks that only had one refractor auto or better per box and 4 out of the 8 numbered autos were only refractors /499.

looks like this might have been way overprinted if that is the case.

looking very rough for $5,600+ for a 8 box case.

excel_b · 01-12-2026, 09:26 PM

Stained Glass is tough to hit...

How many colored autos did you hit?

Agreed with daeve about the solid case.
