After a long wait, Huddle just gave a nice slap in the face to it's best customers. I spent over a million coins on the Black and over a million on the Diamond, so there is a pretty good sample. After waiting for 4 weeks to finally get a VIP pack in the store, here was what we got
Black VIP packs - 10,000 coins
I averaged 1 insert and 9 golds for every 10 packs. I got a LOT of the 1970 Clay Matthews, Chrome Decker and a few linemen. No Blue Boosts, No small print inserts, no All-Purpose, no Triple Si., no H2H. no GM. The only thing with any value was a normal sig of Julius Peppers, and based on the player, that is not very significant. The Takedown packs that are in the store would average 1 insert in 5 packs based on the combined odds. At least with the Takedown pack, you get an active reward and better odds.
Diamond VIP packs - 15,000 coins
Nothing but Purple Boosts. Absolute garbage since there are now Blue boosts and all of the rewards have expired. A complete slap in the face
Other VIP Benefits
Frequent VIPs packs (see above) where frequent is every 3 weeks
A Black Boost (probably of a player with many higher boosts already)
An exclusive Diamond insert set / with reward that does not exist
Your choice of an insert with a run of over 200, which means you can pick one of the higher print run Blue Boosts or a MNF / POYW card (assuming you can get the request filled in the 1 hour that they are in the packs)
TOPPS IAN's email (which took me two weeks to track down after 3 requests for it)
A 1 of 1 card for Diamond, which I requested 2 weeks ago. last month's is a 2.7 boost
In summary, if you think the VIPs are getting the best packs and you are trying to scrape together enough to get to that level so you can get the rewards, save your money
