Got the Angels in my blind draw? Sweet! Got the Pirates too, though. [emoji879]️ Looking forward to the break tonight!

Bought one Compact Hobby box at the LCS, and ordered four blasters via Fanatics. My Compact shorted me an auto. So I have made a claim with Topps. We'll see what becomes of it. I did pull a Trout Chrome, Joe Morgan purple #/75, a Pujols red parallel, but not much else exciting. The Blasters...
Cubs were my random team last year. I think we'll get new ones this year. That's how Andrew has done it in the past.

I really disliked that last year, I had both the Cubs and White Sox as my second team. My typical luck!
I would like the Twins again, but I will wait and see if someone else wants to jump in for them.

The Henderson is also the only card that has the brick wall background design. Possibly a variation? There's no serial numbering on the back like other Topps cards have had to designate variations from base. Would be nice to know!

For me, this set just looks better than other Bowman sets. Brighter colors, good inserts, good mix of prospects, rookies and veterans. So here's my lot:
The Outman is a mini-diamond. You can put Outman and the Morel together for the NL puzzle. Pretty cool idea.
Schmidt is a Wave...
And my box toppers were the Hoskins like you got and Correa. If you have no plans for that Correa variation, I'd be interested!
Love the box topper, hope to get it signed at Twinsfest sometime.

I was going to post my break of two Hobby boxes, then it's been a busy week in the grocery business. Out of two boxes, all my Hi# SPs were different. No dupes! I got one chrome, one refractor--and I can't remember who they were! I Also got one black--someone on the Red Sox. No variations or SPs...
First, the Breaker's Delight. One pack of 12 cards, two guaranteed autos.
Peraza on card--nice! Anderson sticker. Negative refractors are rare, but no odds or print run given.
Jumbo box.
Love the Titans inserts. Autographs--which is what they plug so bad--were disappointing. Two sticker and...
Ordered via Fanatics--trying a different source. Pretty much same results! Early readings say the Blasters are pretty sparse for color and inserts. Missed out on Mega boxes at Fanatics, but may find one down the line.
Tale of the tape:
Refractors: Turing, Pasquantino, Arenado, Freeman...
He was there at Topps’ booth the day before and signed special cards. They matched the design of the wrapper redemption cards—oh, I did get some of those too. I should scan them in. I’d imagine there’s a few on eBay since he signed for about an hour.
For now, anyway. Word is the JRod boxes will be available online from Topps in August. These were an exclusive at the Topps booth with a limited amount sold each day. What separates there are the teal parallels numbered to 25. Only in the ASG boxes. Each pack has a teal card. Not every box has...

My only autographs from the MLB Experience in Seattle last week. Only got to go one day. Spent most of my time and money on Topps stuff! Pretty slim auto groups, and even then, not a lot I really wanted to pursue. But this was a nice pairing and I asked them both to sign in Kanji...
