Running Eric Bruntlett/Marwin Gonzalez Pickup Thread

[Therion]

Prices have jumped, but his short injury brought them back down.

Series II will give me a better idea of his hobby standing. If they start going crazy I'll sell off the rare stuff and buy it back in ten years for pennies on the dollar.

A new addition today. Should have some more coming in soon as Marwin is in Series II.

2016 Topps Chrome Blue Sapphire

Oddly, I already had the 1/1 Transcendence version of this card but never got around to the actual non-buyback version.

 

[Therion]

Topps Series II seems to being left unopened, because I've only seen three Marwin variations so far! Picked up the black, still waiting on a base.

2017 Topps Black

Two additions this week

2015 Topps Mini Black 10/10

And a toughie that I'm glad to have out of the way.

You know you have a sickness when you buy a card because it has the back of your favorite player's head on it.

Finally picked up the base card.

2017 Topps Gold

For the first time ever, my snipe did not go off and I missed out on a 2015 Topps Platinum. It went crazy cheap too.

That card is hilarious!

Added a new cameo today.

2017 Topps Fire Walk It Off Blue Foil

I thought it was the base card, so I have another of this parallel coming but still need the regular version. Gold is also incoming.

To find Marwin, look to the far left of the card. He's next to the C in Correa wearing number 9.

2017 Topps Fire Walk It Off Gold Parallel

And I was right, I bought two blue copies. Still need to find the regular version.

Two new in today.

2017 Topps Limited

Two more in today, one I wasn't sure I'd ever find.

2017 Topps Now (he's not pictured, but he made the throw and he's mentioned)

2017 Topps Heritage Flip Stock (print run of 5)

I now have every Heritage card of Marwin except the team card Flip Stock.

Flip Stock is one of the worst parallels out there I think. Topps really needed to serial number the parallels so you could tell what they are more easily.

Yes, they are absolutely terrible to identify. I imagine they will be frequently found in dime boxes ten years from now.

And I was right, I bought two blue copies. Still need to find the regular version.

Do you still need the regular version?

 

[Therion]

Yes!

Three new Marwin cards today.

First, a freebie from [MENTION=1837]Dazed[/MENTION] Thank you!

2017 Topps Fire Walk It Off

The base card and the blue parallel of this are pretty hard to tell apart.

I also got in two Topps Now cards.

I hated this play because everyone was OOOOHHH and AHHHH about Springer's catch, but Marwin had the catch made. Springer just hot-dogged him. Springer even mentioned it in his MVP speech. I love Springer, but man what was he doing?

And this one has Marwin front and center, holding up Altuve.
