2023 Upper Deck Cosmic - Page 2

DynaEtch · 06-21-2023, 01:46 PM

Bought 5 packs. Hoping for sketch but didnt get one.

Got a Mike Massimino auto (former astronaut on Columbia)

Also got a base card of Isaac Newton...now that is a cool trading card.

This set is very visually impressive. What I picture a space set done proper looking like.

The Chalkboard inserts are amusing....never thought Id see a UD card of physics equations, like we're back in school! Looks like they did adequate research (or consulting) for these too.

i did a few 3 pack rips and hit a 5x7 galactic sketch. nothing else to mention. cards look nice but have no idea of value.

Fenian95 · 06-21-2023, 01:57 PM

Bought 2 packs. Got a red shift of Apollo 4 /99.

Chrominator · 06-21-2023, 03:28 PM

One pack:

Scale of the Universe – Tier 1 (1:2)

Agree, but I'm starting to like it for some reason

Have to figure out what it is exactly...

Grabbed 6 packs in groups of 2. No autos or sketches but I did get an Operations & Instructions and a Cosmic Clippings. Cool concept for a set.

4 packs. 1 hit. Leland Melvin variant auto pictured on the first page.
Cool card but not sure that covers half of the four packs, as goes with E-pack and cards in general these days.
VERY cool cards though… it’s freakin space! Might get more in the future.

My thoughts too....set content is great....but value probably wont be there. The story of any non-brand (Marvel, Star Wars, etc) set in nonsports. This really looks like a set for collectors, not flippers.

Set would have been helped with a mega-chase auto like Buzz Aldrin (he did sign for other things like easton press books in the past), but oh well.

The artist list on the checklist does look decently loaded with big names that I would love to pull a space sketch from, these are probably the $ hits of the product.

DynaEtch · 06-21-2023, 06:40 PM

Did a few more packs. One of those Observatory Slide Relics #/5.

Got these in 2 consecutive packs….not hits whatsoever, but science geeks will get a kick out of the two equations just happening to be this pair.

mjohnatgt · 06-21-2023, 07:18 PM

I bought three boxes, got two sketches and an auto. Not too shabby. The achievement sketches are gorgeous.

It's a constellation. Very cool.

DynaEtch · 06-21-2023, 07:54 PM

I gotta be careful…I like this set and buying these on epack trying to get a sketch is addicting. But I know from a money return perspective I’m getting clobbered. Isn’t $11.99 a pack kinda steep for a set like this?

My fav insert is The Celestial. Some beautiful cards.

and if I’m gonna get a physics equation…I guess this is the one to get!

powder132366 · 06-21-2023, 09:00 PM

Picked up 2 more packs. I really like this set & the design of so many of the cards.

Got this awesome Mick and Matt Glebe 10”x14” sketch from the sketch achievement.

Coolest part is it’s one card rather than multiple sketches pieced together.

DynaEtch · 06-21-2023, 09:19 PM

10"x"14" sketch....my oh my. It's like a painting. That is super nice.

hannahs1 · 06-21-2023, 11:06 PM

Pulled a ash Gonzales sketch in my box, first one of his I ever pulled

manningandtebow · 06-22-2023, 05:50 AM

You guys convinced me to buy a few packs.

4 to be exact, fun rip.

Pulled a Jeffrey Benetez sketch and a Blue Shift of Apollo 4 /25

I don’t mind the low value for the set, nice to open packs without caring

finfangfan · 06-22-2023, 07:53 AM

Based on inventory on ePack over $100k in sales of Cosmic in less than 24 hrs.

jaybirdmh93 · 06-22-2023, 06:31 PM

Scott Altman is from my hometown and his dad was my Jr High English teacher so still trying to get one of his autos from the set.

Have hit some manuals which are cool

Tim Shinn 5x7 sketch

This guy walked on the friggin moon! Super cool

Nice hits! That sketch is really sweet

Guitarpik · 06-22-2023, 08:24 PM

These are digital cards right?

I hit 3 Altman’s—will trade you one for sure

Rictor · 06-23-2023, 12:55 AM

I opened a few boxes of this looking for autos and trading everything else for autos. I know this is dumb, as the autos will all be $10 on COMC in a few weeks. Still, I haven't bought much of anything on Epack in a while.

Haven't hit any sketches, but I would trade those anyway.
