Toys R Us had a ''special'' on Panini's 2010-11 Donruss blaster boxes - basically, mini-boxes of 8 packs - so I purchased 2 to see what was up with that. 16 packs, 10 cards per - 160 cards total.
Now, I appreciate that Panini is trying to revive the early-90s brands Upper Deck doesn't own such as Donruss and Score, but I find it rather odd that they'd try to make Donruss seem like a middle-to-upper class set, because I must say that at $2 a pack these seemed like a total waste of money - and at regular price, and the suggested retailer price, of $3 per - getting 10 of these so-so designs and sub-par pictures reminiscent of Panini stickers sure feels like getting ripped off:
And I can't get my head around the fact that they want me to believe these cards are worth 30 cents each on average...
Here's the breakdown:
16 packs, 10 cards per, total cards: 160
Regular cards: 146
Rated Rookies: 5
Ice Kings: 1, Mario Lemieux
The Ultimate Draft: 1, Thomas Vanek
Boys Of Winter: 1, Niklas Backstrom
Montréal Canadiens (my home team): 7 (including 1 Rated Rookie, Brock Trotter).
There is no way in hell, I'm getting any kind of money's worth for this crap...
