Boxes of 2021 Optimum

[Scotty_WCE]

Hi all, got my boxes of Optimum today - well done Select for the quick delivery even over here to WA! It’s been a big build up and the fact there‘s a Cousins/Nic Nat dual sig to chase is unbelievable. Fingers crossed the card gods are on my side!

Will open a couple of boxes live tonight. Can’t wait to finally get stuck in!

These boxes are quite sizeable, noticeably bigger than previous Series 2. And now that I’ve opened one there’s a real premium feel with the foam and everything.

Thanks mate, still can’t really believe it!

So two boxes without a big hit so far, but obviously the Nic Nat more than makes up for it by a mile. Still got a few boxes to go so hopefully still a couple of big hits waiting to be found.

Initial impressions:
- Cards look very nice in hand, great finishes on all the cards
- DPSs are very clean
- Don’t like the new number font on some cards, and prefer the three-digit numbers but very minor gripes!
- Just great fun to open

Will be open another box tomorrow night, fingers crossed the mojo continues!
