That's a shake test fail.  The JU-88's are nice, even if you don't want them people are always looking for UC aircraft for trade, and actually for any aircraft at all.  Your rares sort of ruin it though.  Neither are really anything too special.  I'll give you a middle of the road.

When I opened the boxes the Planes Where Stacked up on the tips of the ships, virtually no movement.

My "Shake Tests" usually do well.  When Set 1 came out, I was pulling Iowa after Iowa. then set 2 was Carrier city. This time I have only bought 6 loose boosters so far and have gotten Soyru, Intrepid,Kirov, O.R. Suffren, and Renown.

I don't get it, 3 of the six are "short" Ships. O well, I know I can trade Suffren.

What he said without insulting you with a "middle of the road" rating, below average is my vote.

These are winners for me.
Sure the a6m5 is not as good as the prior the zero, however if youre like me and dont have hordes of the prior zero model and cant be bothered paying top dollar for it, its the only fighter alternative.

The ju-88's are great too, although ive yet to use them effectively.

rares - both are part of "large" classes 3/4 units respectivly - that means they have a good trade value would be great if one was an Intrepid Wink

Uncommons 2x Ju-88 - perfect only uc unit that is unlimited in numbers, the ships soon meet their class limit...

Commons:
2 Sackville (maybe the most in demand unit in game - would take both Very Happy)
2 Zekes - I don't think they are good, but I believe most would think them to be great.
Jill+ Re two more planes

Perfect too IMHO

Overall a great near to perfect pull.

I suppose that could explain it.  Aircraft and their plastic protectors would take up a lot of space in a box and at three aircraft per box that's not much shake room.  I suppose, were you looking for aircraft, that would be a shake test victory.

I put middle of the road, simply becasue the 2 rares are awful, however every other piece is great!!, but it is the rares that usually make the booster.

pretty good in my book.

The aircraft really make the pulls, 2 JU-88's is great, and Jills and Zekes are always welcome, even the RE-2001.

The Suffren is a great cruiser and a 4-class rare.  The only reason not to want it is if you've already collected to class limits and don't like to trade.....or you despise playing the French and don't like to trade.  In other words, if you simply don't like trading.

The O-R is mediocre.  It's got 3 in it's class, but trade value is low.

The Sackvilles seem elusive to me....3 cases and 3 boosters and I've only pulled 6.  They're not that good, but there's a helluva lot of them.

The Sackvilles and the OR are what keeps this from being a perfect pull to me.

Been using Sackvilles as OBs when I don't feel like digging up the counters, if you're doing that... 3 are perfect!
