2025-26 Flair Hockey

Personally, I am definitely hoping that this is a nice set and the mock up photos seem to indicate that it will be. Flair was one of my favorite sets in the mid 90s for basketball. They usually do a pretty nice job with the inserts. There’s one that looks like liquid metal in the mock ups, which could be really cool.

Also, when someone signs a multi year deal with Upper Deck, like Matthew Schaefer did, does that mean that he’s going to appear in all products? No checklist is available for Flair yet, but is it safe to say he will be in there?

Yes I believe Schaefer will 100% be in it.

Recent trends in UD re-releases hasn't been promising. E-X and Fleer Ultra are overpriced and mostly uninteresting. I wouldn't get my hopes up.

It looks nice but the pricing is nuts!

These rare cards are sure to be some of the most beautiful cards in the set.

I'm in
