Just curious if anyone has figured out how many gold parallels were made and the same with base mat relics and gear relics.

I am going to make my best guess when I get my retail boxes and see if the odds are the same or different.  Topps said they shipped them, so should know soon.   But I bet there is someone on here that already knows.

I think the number of golds will be similar number of cases that are made because from the case i pulled, i was able to finish about 90% of the golds, plus a handful of doubles.

There's copper variants?! are you sure? I haven't heard or seen of this.  If so, this means that the retail version has an exclusive type of card, which would be kinda weird.

well ill be damned!

Does this mean that the Retail boxes are actually worth getting now?

BTW, im curious, what goodies did you pull from your retail box aside from those copper variants?

Black GTG Henderson... the two coppers, one onyx but cannot remember of who, some bloodlines and fight posters... and the box was opened missing two packs, and of course I did not get a relic or auto... if you hear of a pack-searching being beaten close to death at a Target or Walmart... say something nice about me to the judge!

back on the quantities, I'd also like to know the number of base inserts made for each kind if anyone figures it out.

I don't think it will possible to figure out until we found out the print run figures for the hobby and retail boxes.

Perhaps someone can extrapolate the print run using the pack odds figures. 

I'm no math guy, but my preliminary calculations estimate the number of hobby boxes range from 14,750 - 18,750. But that won't help with figuring out how many gold, mat relics, or relics until we see the odds on the retail box.
