2002 Upper Deck Honor Roll
Description
2002 Upper Deck Honor Roll is a 190-card, retail-exclusive, set issued in two separate products. These first 100 cards were issued in the standard Honor Roll packs of which hit retail shelves in late April 2002. The first 18 cards in the set make up an American League and National League "Dream 9" -- an All-Star team one player at each position for each league. Cards #19-#27 make up a "Prospect Dream 9" Upper Deck's picks for the top minor league prospect at each position. The remainder of the set (known as the "Dream Moments") dedicates four additional cards for each AL and NL Dream 9 player, and a checklist.
The final 90 cards were distributed (along with cards from two other retail-exclusive sets: Victory and Ovation) in mid-December 2002 within packs of 2002 Upper Deck Rookie Debut. Cards #101-#130 make another "Dream Moments" subset, but unlike the regular Honor Roll set, there is only one card per player (primarily of star players NOT included in the main Honor Roll set) and #131-#190 feature a selection of prospects and rookies. On average, each six-card Rookie Debut pack yielded two Honor Roll cards.
Distribution
Wax: 24 packs per box, five cards per pack (MSRP $2.99, retail exclusive)
Rookie Debut: Eight packs per Blaster, six cards (2 from the Honor Roll set) per pack (MSRP: $9.99 per Blaster, retail exclusive)
