Please see my first box break for product analysis.

Well, this box returned BAP Sig back to it's "Cheap BAP Ultimate" trend. The difference in the box rating primarily comes because this was as close to a "Drury box" as I have ever had.

For starters, the memorabilia card is a nice dual with Hejduk, both with nice swatches, Hejduk has a seam and Drury has two colors. I did already have this card, but not with as nice swatches ... it beats a regular jersey of someone else. And then of course the Drury Certified, which I didn't have, is a welcome addition as well! But sadly, the third big card of the box could not fall and make it three for three on Drurys. I was thinking how great it would be if I hit the limited Drury auto ... I got a limited ... of Donald Audette. No offense to Audette, but when you look at the limited checklist and see Kariya, Robitaille, Blake, Sakic, Samsonov, Thornton ... well Audette ranks as a disappointment comparitively. Not only did he break up the Drury run, but Audette instead of Sakic or Thornton? Ouch.

Two for three isn't bad, especially when the top card is a nice dual jersey dual colored Drury. The autographs once again disappoint overall (I did get a lesser limited, and Neidermayer and Modin) but the jersey card is sweet. It's a cheap pack of BAP Ultimate, I just managed to hit most of the biggies with my favorite this time around. Hey, no complaining there!
