I really don't understand what either of you are getting at.
Are you telling me you think the box breaks section is as lively today as in 2019?

The last time I was a regular visitor there was during the 2020 Series 1 rips.

So I'm definitely not telling you that.

You can tell by the way I didn't mention it.

Just like Bowman megas the photo variations are probably stickers while the other autos are on card. Just a guess though.

Logofractors sure are cool but why did Topps manage to create yet another reason not to buy 2022 Topps Chrome LOL.

Not sure about you, but I didn't buy any other release of 2022 TC except for Logofractor...

Same here. I stopped buying wax altogether because I'm priced out but I love following the carnage in real time.

It's pretty funny to watch the feeding frenzy over buying lottery ticket wax in baseball. I'm happy that people can just drop $500-$1000 or more on retail product just to try and hit a card that may shakeout at $200 LOL

That was one of the best parts of blowout. There were so many post of people sharing their breaks so you can see breaks without watching a youtube video.

Now it is a ghost town.

Baseball is somewhat affordable so there are some breaks but def not as many.

Every basketball release would have tons of breaks especially the big releases. Now there are a few of the big releases and some releases there are no posts.

100% true but I'm having so much fun buying singles now I really don't think I'd get into hobby boxes anymore and retail is getting just as bad. You can get sick deals on low numbered HOF on card autos so I'm just doing that.

That's the silver lining in all of this. Let someone else pay that massive premium and firesale singles on ebay to recoup some of their losses. lol

Page 1 covers 13 days of threads.

Go back to this time in 2019. 2 days of threads on one page.

That and dedicated showoff/mailday/pickup threads. I know now most people show off their new stuff in individual player threads..but I miss dedicated threads to these things. I know baseball has a monthly one but it can go days without posts..football has one for the year but again..not too many posts in there..basketball doesn't have one outside the poverty mail day one.

Photo variation autos in Bowman Megas are NOT stickers...they are just missing the 1st logo.

1) I'm shocked how many people were falling over themselves to spend 1000s of dollars on this product at first site. Julio non-autos fall 1 in every 195 boxes.
2) The images they chose for this set are really good
3) Can't fault Topps/Fanatics for introducing a new product that people are ravenous for. As a company they are looking to make money.

5) Once these are shipped out, ebay is going to be flooded with singles from this set. I don't see a Trevor Story green or Eloy Jimenez purple logofractor (both fine players) commanding much on ebay.

This set is nothing.

Wait for the Sonic-fractor boxes they put out next month at $99.99 each.

THOSE are the boxes you really want. You guys already blew it with these buys!

Hopefully Sonic comes out next week and not today. Will give people a better chance to complete their home equity loan applications or sell their cars to provide the funds necessary for the Sonic purchase.

And don't forget Sapphire at some point too. Probably start those at $200 a piece now. And Update Chrome with the REAL TRUE rookie cards. Oh and Update Sapphire. And Update Logofractor. And Sonic Sapphire Update. Plus mojo-mega retail boxes, get your Target camping gear ready now!
