I am officially done with Topps Chrome retail, because my Walmart has none left. I bought the last two blasters today. The first had nothing of note, but the second had a Benintendi negative refractor.
I would like to try a blaster of Optic....but it's time to show a little restraint.

I went a little crazy with 2017 Topps Chrome this year. Altogether I bought:
- 1 retail mega box
- 4 blasters
- 1 retail fat pack
My notable pulls were:
Aaron Judge Prizm refractor RC
Cody Bellinger pink refractor RC
Andrew Benintendi negative refractor RC
Carlos Asuaje RC autograph...
I'm trying to limit my retail purchases but bought one more rack pack of Chrome today. Nothing special in the 3 packs but I did pull a Bellinger in the pink refractor pack.
So far I've bought one mega box, two blasters and one fat pack. They yielded:
- Ascuaje auto
- Judge prizm refractor
-...
Speaking of "other" non-mainstream sports sets....I saw Topps Walking Dead blasters at Walmart. Guaranteed one hit (I'm guessing sketch, costume relic or auto) per box.

I was feeling good when I found 3 the other night. 2011 Update turned out to be such a good product.

Think I'm gonna take a retail break now. Spent too much over the last few weeks since Platinum came out.
I bought one more TC blaster tonight. Apparently the megas are good for me, not as much the blasters.
Sepia pack: Pujols, Porcello, Puig, Zastryzny
Ref - Stroman, Archer
Negative - Marte...
I know, cheating a little bit with a partially football mail day.
Since I've re-entered the hobby I have attempted to focus a little bit more on singles instead of busting wax. That's not going very well so far after several retail purchases this week. However, I did pick up a few PC pieces on...
Notable hits:
- Benintendi base RC
- Joe Musgrove negative refractor
Carlos Asuaje autograph
Aaron Judge Prizm refractor

I'm more excited about the Judge than the auto. Also pulled one of those neat-looking negative refractors of Musgrove.

Good job getting kicked out Blanning!
One mega box was left tonight which I bought. Eating right now so I have to double check SPs, but the two notables:
- Carlos Asujae RC autograph
And in the second-to-last pack:
- Aaron Judge Prizm refractor RC!

No mojo for me tonight.
Went with 2 more racks of Platinum and just 1 blaster of Chrome.
Platinum:
- Arcia Rookie Radar
- Benintendi, Moncada RCs
Chrome:
- Nova purple ref /299
- Machado, Papi regular refs
- Springer, Moncada 1987
- Tyler Naquin Future Stars
- Cain xfractor? Not labeled as...
Loved those even if I never pulled one. I did do well with 2010 Platinum though. I think I ended pulling 4 autographs. One was a triple USA prospect auto /89, with the other notable being a Eric Thames blue.

Holy cow!
I also noticed a $34.99 jumbo box of Topps Chrome but I haven't read much about those.
