I just picked up 2 of these as well. Kind of miffed I didn't know they were coming. The $70 price tag for the 2 autos is WAY better than the 4-5 blasters I've bought so far that haven't reveled diddly.

I'll run a break thread over in that section.

I agree that the boxes are much better for your money than the blasters seem to be!

3 Walmarts but only the first one had them in stock. Bought all three of the hobby boxes

impulse buy....

one box = two crappy autos and some other garbage. not sure why I bought it since I have no clue who most of these prospects are anymore.

I found some at Toys R Us, and others report finding it at KMart.

If anyone is looking to trade, I need 13 base cards and 44 Top Prospects to fill my sets. I've got a few hundred dupes to offer in trade.

youre supposed to get 2 per box. Id be contacting topps. unless youre talking about blasters.

Yea. It was the blasters. the smaller boxes. I didnt know they sold them in the big boxes

amazed Topps went the normal retail distributor route with this product. Assuming this product was intended to be a WalMart exclusive, why didn't Topps just ship the product directly to WalMart's regional distribution centers?

I didn't find any and now I'm glad. Saving the money for heritage high number
