Image and design variations are both 1:233.

Did you at least get your one gold minted per case?

Has anyone pulled a Vladdy auto that you want to part with?

Yes, I had a gold minted in every case. Only had 4 instavisions out of 6 cases though.

I only opened 2 boxes but in my 2nd box, I got a gold minted, an image variation AND a design variation. Sounds about like Topps.

I didn't know it was an affiliate link. My bad. What exactly is it?

Does someone get a cut of sales?

Maybe try on social media? Not sure who you would reach out to either...I would be interested in how this gets resolved as I buy a couple boxes of SC annually.

I'm surprised about how slow it seems re: cards showing up on eBay for players I'm looking for... have folks just not gotten their boxes yet? waiting for breakers to break? WDYT?

Awfully poor pair of hobby boxes for me: no #'d, no gold minted, no SP as far as I can tell (will take a closer look later), all four autos were base pitchers (Jim Abbott, Glenn Otto, Tyler Gilbert and Revier Sanmartin). I've had more success in the past with blasters (got a Griffey and Ohtani gold minted in 2020 and Acuna Instavision black in 2021 from them), and they offer a better card/$ ratio, which is good for building the set.

Didn't even get J-Rod or Witt base cards!

Broke 3 boxes from Topps dot com
Obviously it’s all gambling, but I can’t remember getting THIS destroyed on a 3 box break of any hobby product in a long time
Best hits?

Julio base?
De La Cruz auto?
CJ Abrams 1st day issue?
Mountcastle /25?

1 did cut insert, 1 chrome refractor in the entire break

At 1st pass I didn’t notice any SPs so I’ll comb thru later, but YIKES

I love LOVE stadium club but the boxes just bend me over a barrel every single time.
One year I'll learn...

Ugh! Sorry!

My experience suggests this must be broken at the 1-2 case or more level to get payback…

…and above there are folks who seem to be hosed this year, any way

Are the 1st Day parallels (or whatever they are called) in designated cases?

Just got my box from Topps today.

Bust open the seal and first thing I notice is the packs were all bricked. The top 2 cards in almost every pack had the names peeled off and the middle 3 cards were always stuck together. Roller marks on my chrome card and punctures in most of them.

Couple of no name autos but man was that depressing.

A CJ Abrams that is of 10 copies is a pretty good card.

Don't think so. They are unnumbered cards but there are only 10 copies of each card.

Only one numbered foil, Bench blue /50.

Here are my 8 autos...not bad.
Stott chrome /25
Junk and Willis black foil /25
5 base
