This is a pretty standard release from .  The Jumbo Hobby box contains 10 packs of 50 cards with 1 Autograph and 2 relics included.  The biggest thing that stands out to me is there are a lot fewer insert cards in this release than we’ve seen in recently years.  There is plenty of variety, but more base.
