2018-19 Upper Deck Ice is set to return as the NHL season shifts into playoff mode. While the product isn’t all about the autographs, Upper Deck is again promising all on-card signatures inside this acetate-heavy product.
Ice boxes will have six packs with five cards in each. Boxes promise one autograph, two Ice Premiere rookie cards and one memorabilia or Exquisite-branded insert.
The base set will consist of 150 cards with low-numbered Green, Red and Black parallels.
Ice Premieres rookie cards will come in five levels, with serial numbers ranging from 1,299 to 99. There will also be Black Parallels (1/1). Retro Versions numbered to 149 will also be in the mix. Autographed Ice Premieres will have three tiers with serial numbers ranging from 99 to 299. Autographed patch versions will be numbered to 10 with jersey patch cards falling one in every 12 packs.
Exquisite Collection cards will include Platinum Rookies numbered to either 199 or 299 with Rookie Signatures numbered to 199 or 99. There will also be a 2004-05 Exquisite Rookie Auto Patch Tribute set with cards numbered to 25.
Frozen Foursome memorabilia cards include four swatches from four different players. They’ll fall one in every 240 packs with Red parallel versions also available.
