I believe these are seeded one per case and that there may be 10 in the set. If anyone can confirm this, that would be great. I am doing this set so if you have one or any for sale, plmk. Thanks.

There seemed to be at least one per box in the case break that All In Cards(Andrew) had on the box break section.

I have opened 5 boxes and the one per box are called "Sailors of the Seven Seas"

I did pull one WSS (Edward "Blackbeard" Teach)

Saltiest Sailors were falling only about 1 every 6 cases or so. They were by far the toughest minis to pull. My friend Brent Williams and myself opened 40 cases between us and only pulled 6!

All A&G pack ripper and collectors need to come to the conclusion that there were MAJOR problems going on when
these were packed out. I don't really think you can give these odds when one case is yeilding nothing and another
10. Topps needs to get their S)*( straight!

exactly. I didn't even know about the set of Lords Of Olympus till I opened a box last night. Ended up getting 6 of them in 3 boxes. Got none of them in my first case, no Saltiest sailors either but got 14 Celestial minis in the case. Pretty screwed up colation

You said a mouthful there brother. We pretty much hit nothing big between us. Not one single Strasburg, no dino or other relics, no nothing of that sort. Seems the majority of big hits and the Strasburgs came from Hobby shops.

talked to my Local card shop on Saturday and he said that they got 50 cases. 15 for them and 35 for customers and they did not hit
1 Stras so far and they have 6 cases left to sell or open. And the guys who the other cases were for did not get anything of major
proportion, in the cases. Also told me there was only 25 rip cards he thinks landed out of those(35) cases. He said this has been the worst collation he has seen in recent years.

Small example, but I opened up two cases and didn't see one. These are super rare based on the number on ebay compared to all the other mini types.

As for the "poor collation"... I for one love the randomness of the breaks. I like the idea that EVERY pack in a box could yield something rare. I had some boxes that had 5 relics/ autos in them and some that only had 1 or 2. This kept it interesting for me... maybe its because It feels a lot like gambling... I live in Alabama... This is the only gambling that's legal here.

Don't hate me, but didn't buy any boxes or cases of A & G but bought a retail blister box from my local walmart and got a Vane Saltiest Sailors SP. I didn't even know what it was as it really isn't listed in the odds, only as the 1:12 pack Sailors set. I knew it looked a bit unusual but go figure, maybe there are more of these in the blister boxes. :shock:

Ok I'm going to say they are tough hobby pull, but it seems that retail has them. ::facepalm::
