Default 12 Breaks of Christmas (A Christmas Story, Doctor Who, Star Wars)



Happy Holidays! I thought it would be fun to do 12 breaks between today and tomorrow. There are a couple of sports and WWE products, but primarily these will be non-sport boxes. As always, thanks for checking out my breaks!

Default 12 Breaks of Christmas (A Christmas Story, Doctor Who, Star Wars)

Break #1 - A Christmas Story

Really excited to open this one. Not the autograph I wanted, but a great Ralphie sketch by Gener Pedrina. And there were two parallels numbered to 40.

Break #2 - Clerks III

I opened several of these this year. Definitely a feast or famine break, and fortunately I got lucky. 2 autographs and 6 parallels # to 37 (2), 69 (2), & 99 (2).

Default 12 Breaks of Christmas (A Christmas Story, Doctor Who, Star Wars)

Breaks #3 & #4 - WWE Prizm & Select

Picked up two blasters of 2024 WWE. Nothing crazy in either, but both were solid. The Prizm had a Red Pulsar Bray Wyatt /399. And the Select had a Green Flash of Gigi Dolin & Charlotte Flair.

Break #5 - Gamer Girls

Last one for today. Originally this was supposed to be a Transformers break, but since nothing from the KickStarter campaign has shipped I picked up one of these. Fun sketch by Sammo Filipo.

Break #6 - Hawkeye

Merry Christmas to all who are celebrating today! Pretty average box to start things off, but a fun rip all the same. Love the metal Trial by Combat inserts. Also had a parallel # out of 100.

Breaks #7 & #8 - Bowman U & WNBA

The last of the sports breaks. The WNBA Select blaster was dreadful. Really the only card of note was a DiDi Richards to 399. The Bowman U mega box was much better. Really sweet Green Lava KJ Bolden /99 and a Yellow Refractor Taurean York Autograph /75. Plus an exclusive Drew Allar for the PC.

Break #9 - Phantom Menace Sapphire

I was really excited to finally open one of these boxes. The cards (even the base) look incredible. Five numbered parallels and a few inserts rounded out the box. Definitely a favorite Star Wars product.

Break #10 - Eternals

Nothing really of note here, though I realized this is a set on ePack where you would miss seeing the physical cards. The foil design really pops for the base.

Break #11 - Moon Knight

I finally beat the odds and hit an auto in one of the Marvel boxes! And just like in Hawkeye, I’m a sucker for the acetate & metal inserts. Fun break on this one.

Break #12 - Doctor Who Series 5-7

Leaving a box with 6 autographs seemed like the best way to finish the break. This has been my favorite DW set since 2018 Signature Series (I still miss those purple packs for $10). Overall a great box, with Clara as the big signer.




This was a lot of fun. Might have to make this an annual tradition. All the best to everyone in the new year!

I love the randomness of these boxes. This is what I did last year. The prior 3 years I didn't break anything I bought the last 3 months of the year & saved them for Christmas. This year I just bought 5 discount cases and was only able to hold out on 2 of the cases! Lol

Ha Ha... thanks. I feel like this mirrors the randomness of my collection. Some were favorites from this past year and others were ones I was excited to try. Best of luck with your remaining cases!

Jenna Coleman was a good hit! Pity her autos are always so poor (at least they're a consistent shape)
