For hits like autographs or relics in Value Box:
-
Value (non-SE) variants are much less likely to include autographs / relics; they are typically reserved more heavily for Hobby / Jumbo formats.
-
In the SE description, the value box still lists autographs and relics among its “shared across SKUs” offerings (i.e., there is a possibility, though rare) Cardsmiths Breaks+1
-
Because Value Box SE shares hit content with higher SKUs, any autograph / relic content pulled would follow the same parallel structure as across Topps Basketball line (rainbow parallels, 1-of-1s, etc.) Cardsmiths Breaks+1
