Keeping a promise

What promise am I talking about? It doesn't really matter. What does matter is that I am keeping it.


2018 Chronicles:

Box 1 contents: pack by pack.








A Braves card.










Another Braves card, this time Acuna. Funny thing about this Crusades card is that they are going for $15.00 and more on Ebay, and at the same time (the day I bought these 3 boxes) I won a 3 card Acuna lot which included this Crusades card for $3.01 plus $3.50 shipping. Lucky me. Maybe I can get him to sign this one at Sunday's game.





The 3 card Revolution pack.







Box 2 contents: pack by pack.





Donruss and Optic both have cards numbered in sequence (in the Chronicles only) to pick up where the regular "set" ended. Then you have the redemption cards that pick up after them, so for set builders that is tough.

















I still need a handful of the "missing numbers for the Donruss set which I'm building, the Optic forget about it.






This Devers is the Cosmic parallel.




Box 3: pack by pack.





Another Donruss down.










Brave #3.






Triple relic , man why couldn't that have been Acuna.







That's all folks. Probably going to take a few days off to get ready for my trip to the ATL.

  1. The background on that triple relic is crazy. Chronicles is a crazy set... it's difficult to pick out the base cards!

    1. All of the cards above are base cards except for the Cosmic parallel of Revolution (Devers), the triple threat relic Spectra, and the teal Optic Fedde.

  2. Love the Crusades... but the rest is hovering around the Mendoza line.

  3. Are there even any base cards in this set?

    1. Chronicles itself has a 60 card base set. However, there are 17 different sets (with base cards) that are included with the Chronicles, all in all I think the base cards between all of the "brands" come to 350. It's crazy , but if Panini would put 10-15 cards in a pack instead of 5, I'd probably go for it. As it is I only want the Braves.

  4. HOLY YANKEES CARDS. Let me know if any are available! Will send some Braves in return.

    The triple relic is cool.

  5. This is a fun looking product. I'll say it a thousand times, but it's like the Topps Fusion of today. Really it makes me wish some of those brands got full baseball sets

  6. I've said for sometime if Panini would do Select or Studio baseball, I'd be all in for buying. I liked Classics too. The Classic design here is almost wasted. Should have been a 200 card set. I spy a nice Select Yadier up there that now resides with me. Thank you.
