2009-2010 Upper Deck Black Break

Upper Deck Black is a product that I didn't get a chance to break a whole lot of last year (actually, none) since it came out before I started collecting cards again. Also, I probably wouldn't have broken a whole lot of it anyways since it's so darn expensive! But I'm definitely a sucker for products like this and decided to buy a box from Dave and Adam's Card World last weekend since they had a sale. My package finally arrived today from UPS and so I got to break it! SO EXCITED. I had to temper myself a little though because with all products like this, they can be really hit or really miss with most times being really miss.

I won't do a full review of this product, but I must say I really love the design of these cards. The black backgrounds are really classy and the different card types all look really good. I was hoping to get a Pride of a Nation insert card, but I knew going in that probably I wouldn't. I'm sad that I won't get a chance to get any Black for 2010 since it's not on the release calendar. But it's cool that at least I can still get some of last year's stock and maybe even 2008 if I really want to.

With this box of 09/10 Black I also shot my first box break video! Take a look at me opening the box or just skip down below to see the hits that I got.
