Topps being Topps.
Whites, Aquas, Dark Blue, Green and Black borders are all labeled as white border on the back


Opened first 3 blasters from Target
2 cards made it a good break

Mini Wyatt Langford
White Border Paul Skenes

No autos, no relics, chromes and other colors were no big names

Great pull. 2 good cards.
My 3 blasters from Target were horrible. No mini’s, no autos, no relics, only decent card was green Chourio. Actually were 27 cards that were in all 3 blasters. Never had that before.

Opened about 1/3 hobby box from LCS and it was a hot box with purple chrome in every pack plus a few minis. Have opened a couple boxes and some blasters, and sold singles at show last weekend since I don’t put together this set. Have a few more to open and will list the chromes, #’s, white borders and extras I don’t need.

Think of it like this. Imagine if the entire set was white bordered. Then Topps would provide a bunch of different color parallels, right? Well, all of those colors are done as if the original border had been white.

Yes, dumb, I know. But that's what they are suggesting with their lazy "everything is a white border".

This is very likely what happened. They probably print all the white bordered cards first then add the color to them.

Nah. They got lazy. Regular heritage had the same issue with blacks saying it was a white boarder. Plenty of time to fix it.

Opened 3 blasters this evening with the family. First two were about average. 3rd blaster was hot box with every pack having a purple chrome - best pull was a Jackson Holliday. Plus pulled a Reggie Jackson blue auto - could t even tell until I saw it say Topps Certified autograph issue.
