Just short of 3 boxes via packs to get this. Green looks good - too bad it is not /10 though, which was my initial thought.

/33 common auto and 2 carved cards = other hits

Flair has been a very interesting experience on EPack. The glut of releases and the high epack sticker price have led to a somewhat subdued response to what I think is Upper Deck's best EPack delivery I've seen. The set itself is really good with the base card art, parallels, and inserts, but what has really set this apart is the achievements. They are awesome and layered in a way that's made nearly everything a chase. Base are in high demand to combine for silvers, silvers to combine for gold and red iridescence, red iridescence to combine with regular iridescence to get Flairium original art and printing plate sets. It has made trading hard, but in a very good way. Everyone wants everything.

I finally pushed through on the Powerblast set achievement to get the 3 blue iridescence /35. I got incredibly lucky with my 3. The Miles is a grail card for me. Then getting the Rogue is just a cherry on top (sorry Bucky, nobody likes you).

ePack odds have Sketch Cards listed at
Sketch Cards (1:216)

Why have Marvel products been making sketch cards longer-&-longer odds?
I feel these are "easy to add" to a product.

Sourcing issues, flooding of the market when they were at 1/box.

It's a lot easier to manufacture a different color parallel than manage the logistics of shipping of blanks and receiving of finished sketches from all corners of the world, specifically the Philippines

From the perspective of a collector to me this is up there as one of the best Marvel set this year.
I love the spread of inserts, alot of the bases (which are comic inspired) and the non overloading parallels. They also made set easier to collect by reducing the level 4 flarium pull rate, which imo is a good thing with consideration to making it more available to more collectors.

The cards are also more normal thickness that you can easily display without damage in a binder if you want.

Box price is ok at $175 but these days they are all too overpriced. Id bust at 120-150 but still picked up loads of singles

Agree 100%. The set is so well constructed from top to bottom. I'm a big parallel guy and love the impactful, but not in-your-face treatments like the ones I shared above. The epack combinables and achievements were also the best I've seen on terms of card desirability and obtain ability. I look forward to what's remaining on EPack to going on clearance before year end.

Yeah if these go down to $150/box I'll definitely pick up more. I'd prefer physical over epack though.
