Description

2006 Upper Deck is a massive 1250-card set released in three series and is widely considered to be one of Upper Deck's finest accomplishments. The first series of 500 cards was released in April 6, 2006 while the next 500 cards were issued August 8th. Combo Fat Packs (containing cards from both series) were released September 21st. The final 250 cards were issued as part of the retail-exclusive Update Series, which went live in December. 50 cards in the Update Series were short-printed.

There are two different versions of Jason Repko's card. Repko is on the checklist as card #246; however, the Repko inserted into Series One packs was erroneously numbered as #283. However, when the Series One & Two Deck Fat Packs, were issued, Repko's card number was corrected.
