2009 Ultimate Collection is up on eBay, or at least a few cards are. Im not sure what to think yet, as we havent seen what a normal case holds or what the general feel of the set is. As I said yesterday, it has some very big shoes to fill, and that is where things could get ugly. People have been wondering if this will be a more rookie focused product or veteran focused product, to which I remind you that the NFLPA license requires companies to have a good part of the set be rookies. This will not have the same feel as Ultimate Baseball, but it should be pretty cool.
Now that we have a little more ammo to go off of, I think its pretty easy to see what the motto for ultimate is going to be. If you get an auto card, things are looking good, if you get a jersey card, you are pretty much out 100 bucks. Too bad, as the jersey cards look to be at least 4 per case, if not more.
Here is what we have so far (UPDATED):
Aaron Curry 2 Sided Patch/Jersey
Shonn Greene Rookie Auto
– I really like these, even though the lines are odd.
Mark Sanchez/Shonn Greene Dual Jersey Auto – Awesome
Kenny Britt Ult Shout Out Rutgers – Very cool, colors clash though
Aaron Curry Dual Jersey Auto – Another awesome one

Many more will be posted today, and these may be taken down if UD continues with their terrible policy about posting cards early. Either way, ill add to this as the day goes on.
EDIT – Legends are back (from Blowout):
