2013 A&G 2 Box Break with some UNREAL luck

uberfatty · 08-18-2013, 02:11 PM

Love opening a box or two of this every year. Let's get to the goods.

First, a couple basic relics to start off with before we get to what makes Ginter so much fun.

A quick diversion for the hottest RC of the year, A&G back no less:

Now for the non-baseball portion. Got some nice hits here.

Penny Marshall, Nick Saban, and Pele!! That's five of the hits, and then finally I get what I've always wanted from Ginter:

After a couple minutes of contemplation, I ripped that sucker open and got this EXT mini #366 (left edge is fine that's just my scanner):

So in all, I got seven relics including Saban and Pele, an A&G back Puig RC mini, and a rip card out of my two boxes. Was a really fun break and I'll continue getting a few of these every year.

Those of you that were doing the math on my relic count and scratching your head are in for a treat. Second to last pack had this

Best break I've ever had.

sweet break man for 2 boxes

tnelson027 · 08-18-2013, 02:15 PM

Well, it does say 3 hits on average. I remember a Heritage box I busted once had two Relics, rather the one I was promised on the box.

That aside, fantastic break!

That redemption is amazing. Could you do me a favor.. Send me a pm of the back of it with that grey area scratched please!!!! Lol awesome card.

ilovethelakings · 08-18-2013, 02:27 PM

Great break. I would had been quite happy with those hits, too.

I'll get right on that!

Does anyone know what the numbering on these book cards is going to be? I can't find anything through Google or in eBay past sales.

Nice break, congrats. Always cracks me up though when people put redemptions into top loaders.

I did that only so my scanner doesn't cut off the edge of the card. And to ensure it grades a Pristine 10 on edges and corners!

Is the nick saban available? If so pm me

danimal875 · 08-18-2013, 08:23 PM

Sell that redemption NOW. It will not get made, guaranteed. Topps knows from day one that those cards will never get made.

When will Topps stop using that awful picture of Gwynn sporting the giant floppy spare tire?!!

Freaking awesome break though OP!

tnj0426 · 08-18-2013, 11:31 PM

Sweet Puig@@ Would RIP the Gwynn. Incredible pull with the dual auto book. Congrats!

This is kind of my thought as well. Any ideas on what to ask for value-wise? I also still haven't found anything concrete confirming 1/1 or other numbering.

centereacan06 · 08-19-2013, 10:45 AM

At first reading this thread, I thought it was two blaster of A&G and almost lost my mind. Nonetheless, still an awesome break. Congrats!

Pine Tar · 08-19-2013, 10:49 AM

Not a bad break there
