Considering the “public release” people were only allowed one box.... I’d say these are going to be a long term hold, I can’t wait until I get a membership this year...

So you can bot it up and share links with your bot group. Hope you get skunked personally if that’s your angle

I don’t have a membership in it.... it’s free to join, but you have to pay if you want product. I use it strictly for electronics. Theirs a general chat and people posts their success or fails.

Megas they typically charge 18 a box for their fee.... today they were charging 50 for the sapphire.

Sounds quaint and prosaic, but the hobby world, and many other sectors, wish that you all would disappear.

If you break a box of Finest Flashbacks and either hit a super or auto, you did really well, no question!

Bounties not that great at this point. Makes me think distributors received a good share of boxes. Will be interesting to get a peek at the odds and the print run.

Got my first 5 MC boxes of snapshots yesterday....

The Bad...
  • Collation was HORRIBLE. I ended up with 4 Aaron Judge's and 3 of several other people.
  • No numbered base cards

The Good...
  • 6 autos out of the five boxes
  • B&W's were pretty decent (Dalbec, Bohm, etc.)

The Awesome...
  • Autos included Nate Pearson, Bobby Dalbec redemption, Scott Podsednick Tintype /25, and Ronald Acuna Jr. Tintype Gold /10 redemption

My 5 Snapshots boxes, autos and numbered only pictured.

In addition, got 1 Tin Types and 5 B/W (4 are RC) for parallels and inserts.

Collation is definitely weird. But I guess three /25 non-autos out of 5 boxes ain't bad.

Happy to trade any and all. Would love Kerry Wood autos and Fergie autos.

Good luck trying to get a membership this year. When do memberships go on sale? I will be trying also but I hear that it's going to be very difficult and next to impossible because of the very strong demand...
