14-15 Upper Deck SPx

Yeh more or less.

UD are definately less guilty than panini when it comes to to sticker autos.

From memory Fleer Retro base autos are sticker, as are UD Black 'Jordan Brand Classic' card.

Aside from that I think most recent UD cards have been on card.

Def excited about this cars design though, probably not going to be the most valuable cards in the world, but enough cool designs that they should be fun to break. I usually stock to high end cards, but I think I'll box a box of this for fun as well as the new SP Authentic.

Have always loved the SPx cards and happy to see UD bring black a classic. Now they just need to use their Fleer influence and bring back E-X :)
 
And at least the latest exquisite was on card!

I'm pretty sure the last three Exquisite products (11/12, 12/13, 13/14) have all been exclusively on card. Gone through a few boxes of those and have never received a sticker auto in any of them! The only ones I'm not sure of are the "9 signature" booklets.

From my experience, I think the following are also entirely on card:
* 2011/12 and 2012/13 All-Time greats
* 2013/14 UD Black (only exception being the 'Jordan Brand Classic' booklets)

Even the much cheaper SP Authentic features a number of inserts that are on-card like the Letterman cards, the 'court memorabilia' cards (can't remember what they are called) etc.

As much as I love the overall design of Immaculate product, the presence of sticker auto's really does cheapen the image - for a $400-$500 product it's pretty hard to swallow.

I'm sure Panini are keeping that NBA License close to their chest, because if Upper Deck ever got the rights to make NBA cards again Panini would become second rate product very quickly.
