Gone and GOT me too

Reading Night Owls blog last night hit VERY close to home. I was out trying to nab a couple of presents for family, and I fell prey to the wanting rip packs ITCH. My first stop was Wally World.

I left there with 2 blasters. This first one was the one that got me. I had seen it before and didn't get it previously because I kept trying to see if it had Series 1 or 2 or Update, or a mix. It was labeled Holiday box. I should have passed again, but I will let you folks decide. It was the regular set cards although they are the same barring the snowflake corners where the smoke was before.

Here take a closer look.

Greg, maybe you like this version better than the regular issue corners.  ?????

Here is a horizontal look for you.

At least I got the bat flip.  I was seriously let down with these not being the regular issue cards.

 I was hoping to catch the snowflake parallel, or at least what I thought would be.

These are the 6 that I pulled.

These are a few of the inserts from the Heritage High Numbers blaster I also grabbed at Walmart.

These 2 have the variations code on them. When I went to look them up Jeff isn't even listed, and Trevor isn't any of the ones that they show. What the variation is I have no idea, but they have the CODE!.

The only Brave I pulled.

2 Keeper inserts from the box.


The next store I hit was Target where I grabbed 5 more boxes, sort of.

The first box was Optic.

These are the 6 Diamond Kings I pulled.

Again, just one Brave, but hey you only get 30 cards in the box. That should just be packaged as a fat pack and let it ride, but then they would have a hard time getting $20.00 for them.

The other 4 pink cards. 2 keepers.

The only other insert.

The other Rated Rookies.

I also pulled this card which is sitting in stack for Gavin. I hid the scan because I didn't know if someone could use it that way.


One of the other blasters I picked up was Golden Age. Never opened any before so I figured why not for $12.99.

I pulled this relic out.

These are the baseballers I pulled.

And the minis.

The backs of the minis. I'm not sure there is any signifcance any the color variations of those.

This keeper came as a bonus in one of those Fairfield 4 pack +50 card boxes. ( I picked up 2 of these boxes)

That white framed Ellsbury was the bonus from the other Fairfield box. The rest of these cards were from the packs and singles. There's a 1979 (puzzle B) Bazzoka Joe card, a Just minors autograph, some keeper inserts, and the relic bat card which I have no idea why Panini did that. And the best value of the day is that $60.00 Chrome Refractor Jeter that came out of one of the $7.99 Fairfield boxes. I hope I don't get another one (Triple Play no name bat relics) from the box I ordered from D&As. Yes, I did that too and grabbed up 5 more boxes.

 I'll get back to the Jeter scans on Thursday.
