2015 N F L
36 packs - 10 cards per pack
One rookie card in every pack
One auto or relic card in every box
I received these:
302 unique base cards (60.4% of the 500 card base set) - no duplicates!!!
In keeping with previous issues of Topps base sets, 2015 NFL is no different. The action shots are excellent, the cards have a glossy front and full bleed (nearly) pictures. The design is simple with the main focus on the player. The Topps silver foil logo is small and not over powering on the card.
The reverse has stats for the last 2 years and career stats. Personal stats are also included. The numbering of the cards is easily readable - the #2 is a bit funky, but then again what isn't?
Inserts
Parallels
3 golds #ed to 2015
1 Pink - #ed to 499
1 Pink foil #ed to 60
Curious question - does any one collate the pink foil set #ed to just 60? It would be a very cool set to own, but it might be a bugger to put together...

This is a must issue for the set builders. One should be able to come very close to a set with just 2 hobby boxes. The player collector will have a number of parallels to chase and the rookie card collector should be happy with a minimum of 36 rookies per box.
The photo variation is somewhat of a puzzle and maybe it's just my eyes - I could not see a difference in the minuscule typed number between the 2 cards - not saying it wasn't there, I just could not see it..
Overall grade - A- for the set A+ for the number of rookies available.
Go buy several boxes and see how many different colored inserts you find.
