The first-ever AEW Skybox Metal Universe product delivers an impressive lineup of iconic cards to AEW fans and collectors in general. The list includes, but is not limited to, 1997-98 Retros, Intimidation Nation, Jambalaya and Skybox Premium cards.

The base set, which features the biggest names in AEW today, consists of 100 regular cards and 50 SP's (the best-of-the-best). Collect the complete base set plus two Blaster-exclusive parallels of the regular cards: Blue Spectrum and Purple Spectrum (#'d to 199)! Every pack will contain, on average, one Blue Spectrum parallel card while every box will contain, on average, one Base Set SP card.

The 1997-98 Retros set features 50 AEW stars on the classic 1997-98 Metal Universe design. Each wrestler's card sports a unique space-themed background!

Skybox Premium, another old-school classic, sports a 50-wrestler checklist. Look for Blaster-exclusive Star Sapphire and Star Sapphire Auto parallels!

Everyone will be chasing after super-rare Jambalaya cards featuring the most popular wrestlers on the AEW roster!

With a vaunted checklist and impressive design, the popular Intimidation Nation insert will be a hit with AEW fans.

Not only does the inaugural AEW Skybox Metal Universe release host multiple iconic inserts, it also hosts plenty of all-new and AEW-specific inserts! Here is a rundown:

• Bonzo Gonzo: A three-sided die-cut set which captures chaotic moments in (and maybe out!) of the ring.
• Feeling the Love: This set captures moments in which wrestlers and fans are engaging each other.
• Technicians: Each card features a wrestler performing one of his or her signature moves.
• The Merch: A four-sided die-cut set mimicking wrestler-worn and branded t-shirts.
• Turn up the Heat: Each card features a popped-out wrestler posing or flexing, typically prior to entering the ring.

Collect two different acetate insert sets: Palladium (popular wrestlers) and Hardware (wrestlers that have won one or more belts).

Keep an eye out for Metal-X cards! These super-rare hits, printed on Rainbow Foilboard with a PETG top layer and Spectrum Deco Foil, and featuring wrestlers cherished by fans around the world, will be a valuable addition to any collection!
