2022-23 Upper Deck Synergy Hobby

The 2022–23 Upper Deck Synergy Hockey Hobby Box is a technology-heavy NHL release featuring acetate, metal, die-cut, Spectrum Light FX and low-numbered cards. With only 24 cards per box, the product emphasizes premium designs, serial numbering and chase cards rather than a large base-card break.

Each Hobby Box contains 8 packs with 3 cards per pack. Upper Deck advertises an average of four numbered, autograph or premium technology cards per pack, giving the product a steady concentration of inserts and parallels.

The 125-card base set includes veterans, legends, rookies and short-printed rookies. True rookie cards are extremely limited, with rookies numbered to 23 and veteran or legend base cards numbered to 13. Red and Purple parallels expand the chase, with many Purple versions numbered to 99 or fewer and selected cards carrying autographs.

Major inserts include:

• Light Up the Night Spectrum Light FX cards

• Cast for Greatness all-metal cards

• Greater Than Signatures

• Rink Ink Autographs

• Cranked Up! acetate cards

• 2030

• Thrill Rides

• Rookie Journey

• Synergistic Duos

• StarQuest
  

Premium autograph targets include Cast for Greatness Signatures numbered to 25, low-numbered Light Up the Night autographs, and StarQuest Gold Autographs numbered to five. The box is best suited for collectors who enjoy unusual card construction, colorful technology and low-numbered rookies rather than traditional set building.
