17-Pack Break: 2015-16 Upper Deck Tim Hortons

 
You may recall my review of my first 13 packs of Upper Deck's 2015-16 Tim Hortons Collector's Series cards, which I posted nearly two weeks ago. Here's what I got in my next 17 packs...

There were already cards I had doubles of, now I have some in triple (Michael Cammalleri, Tomas Plekanec, and Jonathan Bernier). There are even inserts I have doubles of, such as these three die-cut cards of Bernier, Andrew Ladd and Vladimir Tarasenko:
But as far as this inset sub-set is concerned, I did get 4 news ones of Carey Price, John Tavares, Erik Karlsson and Steven Stamkos:
I also got these four Season Highlights/Checklist cards of James Van Riemsdyk (which I already had), Bo Horvat, Ondrej Pavelec and Karlsson:
I also got my second 3D Franchise Force card, this time of Vancouver Canucks goalie Ryan Miller:
There were also these two Shining Futures cards, of Filip Forsberg which I already had, and Sean Monahan:
And last but not least, the beautiful, see-through, plastic Above The Ice cards, of which I now have a double of Karlsson's but added Alex Ovechkin and Patrick Kane for good measure:
No Sidney Crosby autograph, but very pretty cards nonetheless.

Which brings me to the main set. Thirty packs in, and I'm not super-close to finishing.

I am still missing these: 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 29, 31, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 42, 44, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 54, 56, 59, 60, 62, 63, 64, 65, 68, 70, 71, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 83, 86, 87, 92, 93, 97, and 98.

Which means I have these:
2: Eric Staal
3: Andrew Hammond x2
7: Kyle Turris x2
10: Corey Perry x2
14: Jamie Benn
16: Ladd
17: Radim Vrbata
18: Ryan Strome x2
19: Jonathan Toews
21: JVR
26: Blake Wheeler
28: Claude Giroux x2
30: Henrik Lundqvist x2
32: Jonathan Quick
33: Henrik Sedin x2
40: Henrik Zetterberg
41: Jaroslav Halak
43: Adam Henrique
45: J. Bernier x3
53: Jeff Skinner
55: Roberto Luongo
57: Drew Doughty
58: Kris Letang x2
61: Rick Nash
66: Brian Gionta x2
67: Max Pacioretty
69: Kyle Okposo
80: Ryan Johansen
81: Phil Kessel
82: Plekanec x3
84: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins x2
85: Steve Mason
88: P. Kane
89: Tyler Seguin
90: Stamkos x2
91: Tavares
94: Corey Schneider
95: Tomas Tatar
96: R. Miller
99: Dustin Byfuglien
100: Cammalleri x3

Which, in turn, means that 30 packs in (at $2 apiece), I am still just at a 41% completion rate. In comparison, one can ''redeem'' their purchased packs for online packs on Tim Horton's website, and I'm at 74% there, because they auto-trade your doubles.
