One blaster I mistakenly way over paid for yielded a Curtis mead reverse auto, a white border no name, two green, and an aqua. All no names.

I’ve not had the same experience with blasters as well. Opened another 9, no autos. Only thing decent were the minis.

9 Blasters with ZERO autos or relics. Did get 3 minis, several chromes.

As for the Joey Ortiz / Bo Naylor shortage discussion I've had plenty of Ortiz...like 6, but Skenes, Glasnow, Snell and a couple others have been tough pulls.
Weird I’m practically getting a skenes per blaster

Sorry. Meant to say Blowout presale. You are correct sir ! Except Topps didn’t actually do a PRESALE release. $99 was their release day pricing.

Not all blaster rips are great. Really hit or miss. Opened 15 with just 2 autos. At least one was a red (Hunter Goodman).

My girls have opened 6 blasters. They hit 2 relics, 4 minis (including Yamamoto), 5 Paul Skenes base, and a red auto of Shane Bieber /75.

[QUOTE=MotorboatJones;19870883]and my LCS (that is now allowed to buy if they want or they wont get better allocation) got to reorder more from Topps at $180... (Then the floodgates opened because $100 boxes from Topps.com are being delivered and resold on ebay for $160-$170)

I bit the bullet and got a refund on mine. With other platforms still making these available for sale on occasion, I was tired of having Target sitting on my cash.

Got a case of blasters from my LCS last week and have been slowly getting around to ripping. I finally finished and overall, I’d say I did pretty well. The Reggie was in the 2nd to last blaster, felt a lot better after that one. Most of numbered and parallels were of no one special, the best hit was a Skenes green. Hit 13 minis, 2 black & whites, 1 color swap and these:




I also found 5 blasters at Gamestop and pulled these along with a mini, a Eloy Jimenez and a Carlos Correa relic. The Merrill is a color swap and it came in the same box as the Merrill refractor:

Love the Reggie. If you want to sell or trade, let me know. I’m also interested in your minis if you want to sell.

No they don’t. That’s a 3rd party vendor selling via Target website. Same thing Walmart does. If you want your items only from Target you have to select only Target on the “sold by” tab.

Pretty rough. I think the rebuy for shops was $150 from Fanatics.
