I have literally searched to find what H2 means on let's say 2021 Panini Prizm Draft Pick packs.. is there anything different that you can get from them versus the same 5 card pack that doesn't have the H2 moniker on it? Hobby shop had both but the H2 pack was significantly more expensive per pack versus its identical hobby box version

Hobby Hybrid

I believe it offers hobby exclusive parallels and inserts

So does that mean it's a retail pack that might contain a hobby exclusive parallel?

It's typically a hobby with the exclusive hobby cards, but without the guaranteed (or on average) autos/memorabilia.

Ok thank you. So in your opinion. Are H2 packs a better choice of purchase over the non H2 packs? Do they yield a higher return versus their counterparts? 

I don't think the odds are different in one vs. the other from what I've seen.  Only that the H2 typically offers a slightly less pricey option if you're looking for the hobby exclusive parallels (at the expense of the guaranteed autos not being included).
