Two 1998-99 UD Choice Hockey Box Break

I got two boxes of 1998-99 UD Choice Hockey from my local Wal-Mart. They were selling them 8$ each...

Each box has 36 packs. The main set has 310 cards.

Here are the odds:
- each pack has six cards
- you get two Starquest cards per pack
- Green Starquest 1:7 ; Red Starquest 1:11
- Choice Reserve 1:6
- Mini Bobbing-Head 1:4


Highlights from the first box
- 2 complete sets (30) of Blue Starquest
- 5 Green Starquest (Jagr, Yzerman, Belfour, Sundin, LeClair)
- 4 Red (Messier, Lindros, Mike Johnson, Amonte)
- 9 Bobbing-Head (Palffy, Kariya, Sundin, Messier, Blake, Robitaille, Forsberg, Hasek, Selanne)
- 12 Choice Reserve (two of them are actually interesting: Leetch #238 and Gretzky #225)
- notable cards from the main set

Well, I wasn't expecting much. It's not hard exceding in value the 8$ I  paid for the box. But most of all, it was fun. I wasn't collecting around these years, so these are actually my first cards from the 1998-99 season. Some pictures are... surprising, to say the least.

My only complaint concerns the cards as physical objects. The common cards seem to be sticky, and the Starquest cards are very fragile. I don't think I actually got one without any defect coming out of the pack. Also, most of them (they put the 2 Starquest cards per pack together) were almost glued together.

Highlights from the second box
- 5 Green Starquest (Fleury, Jagr, LeClair, Bondra, Elias)
- 3 Red (LeClair, Samsonov, Elias)
- 9 Bobbing-Head (Shanahan, Koivu, Modano, Sakic, Roy, Yzerman, Fleury, Samsonov, Bure)
- 12 Choice Reserve (the most interesting ones are Jagr #226, Gretzky #236 and Yzerman #310)
- notable cards from the main set (Gretzky, Roy, Yzerman, Sedin brothers with Junior team)

Once again, I feel like I got more than what I paid for, which is always a good thing... Plus, the packs and cards were in better shape, so the cards - especially Starquest cards - are fresher.

I'll put some pictures.
