Set Review
O-Pee-Chee Platinum is the best chromium based hockey card product made by Upper Deck.
It combines the tradition of the O-Pee-Chee branded hockey cards with the modern shiny colored chrome cards the kids love these days.
Hobby boxes contain 12 packs with 12 cards in each pack. The 300 card base set is made up of 200 veterans and 100 rookies. There are 15 different parallels found in hobby boxes with varying levels of scarcity. That seems like a pretty good number for rainbow chasers.
The “traditional colored parallels” look pretty sharp, but from a design perspective I’m not a big fan of some of the new parallels. As you can see below, I pulled a variety of different designs and I found the liquid metal, aquamarine, and hot magma parallels to be just a bit weird to me.
Five different insert sets can be found. Normally I love Upper Deck inserts, but outside of the “retro” insert set, the others are just ok. Not bad, but nothing that really stands out to me.
Finally, each hobby box should contain one on card autograph.
There are some aspects of this product I like a lot and others that don’t do it for me, but overall, I think this is a pretty good product for the money!
I received 8 different styles of parallels in my hobby box of 2022-23 O-Pee-Chee Platinum.
Box Break
Here’s what I found in my hobby box:
1 - Cosmic Rookie Auto /35
7 - Serial Numbered Parallels
12 - Unnumbered Parallels
18 - Insert Cards
106 - Base Cards
These hobby boxes are selling on eBay for about $140. You get a good number of base cards and if you like the parallel game, then you also get about 20 per box. That’s pretty reasonable for the price in my opinion.
I ended up with a pretty good rookie auto /35 which made my box profitable, but not everyone will be so lucky.
For set builders, I like the card quality, photo selection and set size. It would take several boxes to build a full base set with just over 100 base per box.
