2018 Allen & Ginter again follows in the footsteps of all the earlier issues - essentially the same design and printed on the same stock. (If it ain't broke.... don't fix it!) Also as in the past issues, world's greatest/champions (some choices could be debated) at something are included in the set. The base set consists of 300 cards. One should be able to complete a base set with as few as 3 boxes, providing the collation is good - either way, you should have enough to trade for the cards needed to complete the set.
Set builders and master set builders should be pleased with Allen & Ginter along with the player collectors. Player collectors will have regular, mini, mini ad back, and mini black to chase.

***************
The sheer number of inserts, mini's, mini inserts, SP's, autos, relics, rip cards, book cards is daunting for the collector - yet, there are those that chase the entirety of the set yearly.
Overall grade A
Go buy several boxes and send the rip cards ( I have only ever pulled 1) and the book cards (never have I pulled one of those) to me!
