Just one Pack: 2026-27 Upper Deck Series 1

 It is rare that I see recent, standalone packs at Walmart. So, let's try one!

I looked, but didn't find any Stunning Outburst Silver Young Guns Cards.
First card out is always a sign of how much I'll like the set, and it is a Maple Leaf entry. But at least it is an interesting photo. It looks like it was from a ceremony honouring Matthews becoming the all-time goal scoring leader in Leafs history. 
But it isn't even close to being the greatest photo in the pack, especially with this beautiful card as competition.
Here's the rest of the base cards. Super happy Larkin wearing Red Wings colours has aged really poorly this season.
Finally, the inserts/Young Gun card. Does making the UD Portraits cards shiny this year act as an improvement? Nope. Still as boring as ever. 1991 Donruss Studio-style backs might save it, but there's only stats on the back. Maybe getting a Leafs YG will signify something for my S2 purchased. 

So, that's (probably) my only pack of S1. And there you have it!
