2011 Topps Inception Football Box Break & Review

CheapCardSupplies.com sent over a few boxes for Sports Card Info to break and review.  A lot of these cards will be used as contest giveaways soon.  I decided to start with this box of 2011 Topps Inception Football.  Enjoy!

Design: 

I love the design when it comes to 2011 Inception.  The thick black card stock with a little color coming through the background really looks nice.  This might be one of my favorite card designs I’ve seen.  The only downside to having cards with black on them, especially around the edges, is that they can show chipping.

Price: 

Boxes are currently selling for about $97.00 a piece.

“Hit” Quality: 

Each box has (2) autograph/autograph relic, (1) relic, (2) parallels, and (2) base cards.  I pulled the following:

Autographed Relic

• Da’Quan Bowers Auto 4-Color Jumbo Rookie Patch #’ed/599

Autograph

• Taiwan Jones on-card Rookie Auto #’ed/900

Relic

• Jordan Todman 2-Color Rookie Patch #’ed/158

Parallels

• Clay Matthews Red #’ed/25
• Santana Moss Blue #’ed/209

Base

• Colt McCoy #36
• Fred Jackson #37

Overall: 

Overall, I give 2011 Topps Inception 4 footballs out of 5 (1=poor & 5=perfect).  The design is absolutely beautiful and the “hits” look great.  Given the great response Topps has received from collectors, I’m sure Inception will comeback next year.
