And this is why we break. You strike out 10 times in a row but that 11th time, you hit a home run. Beautiful card!

Bought into a Cards case break and got a Thomas Saggese on card auto and a /150 of his. In another one I received a case hit Zach Neto. Waiting on my Yankees break to start!!!

That Jeter is awesome. Congrats

Anyone else notice the series 2 vintage stock /99 are serial #ed on the card front? Whatever happened to consistency?

Breakers hate having to turn the card over to read the number. Ain’t nobody got time for that! We can get to the next break faster if everything is on one side.

Next year they will all be numbered 99/99 so they can yell “Bookend” every time they see one…

MiamiMarlinsFan · 06-12-2025, 10:01 PM

The dude who pulled Skubal’s Aces 1/1 gave it to him. The guy got to meet Skubal in Baltimore and got a signed jersey. If I pulled a rare Bobby, I would be temped to gone it to him meet him and get a gamed used jersey or bat.

I like it when the printing press stamps the serial number right next to the player’s face. Makes me laugh. At this absurd Hobby.

SleepyWill · 06-13-2025, 06:46 AM

For the Aces cards, are they textured? Or just a flat surface? Either way super sharp cards.

Mister2Bits · 06-13-2025, 08:52 AM

Stopped by my LCS and ripped two jumbo packs. Lady Luck on my side!

1st pack - Ohtani #400 Glitter Sparkle & Max Muncy Major League Materials GU Auto /50
2nd Pack - Gunnar Henderson Team Variation

Natsfan32 · 06-13-2025, 11:59 AM

I opened a hobby box. Not one decent card in the whole box. Really poor checklist in my opinion.

Why did you open a box if it has a poor checklist? That doesn't make a lot of sense.

nowiamsad · 06-13-2025, 12:59 PM

There is a lot of really cool stuff in Series 2 (Black Border, All Kings, K-Zone, more NNOF) but good luck hitting any of it.

The 35th anni 1990 All-Star parallels are legitimately one of the biggest crimes Topps has ever committed.

bustsomewax · 06-13-2025, 01:23 PM

My hobby case was pretty fun.

5 Blacks /74, best being a RC of Sugano for the Os
2 HFAs (Soto and Alcantara)
5 Autos (Best being a Fisk /5 and Rice RC)
Heavy Lumber Machado
1/1 Foil of Jose Igelsias
K Zone of Koufax

JECpsu · 06-13-2025, 02:29 PM

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where are retail/display boxes sold (or do they come out later)? My LCS has them from earlier years.

marl1220 · 06-13-2025, 03:30 PM

Skipping the rip and just buying 2 factory sets (open one and keep one sealed). That way I know I'm flushing my money down the sh*tter ahead of time.

scotts · 06-13-2025, 07:42 PM

Even though seeing some horrible rips, this product is flying off the shelves. Bought a hobby cade today from Blowout

kyle1707 · 06-13-2025, 07:46 PM

Those All kings inserts are instant classics

Checked it out on Fanatics, and the cards look nice.

From the sound of it the smart play is on singles from eBay which is most of the time the safer play. I’m not opening the Jumbo to get rich.

Well we opened our Jumbo tonight. What a complete WASTE!

. Two relics of some no namers. A sparkly Ohtani, and some blue card

Some nice hits in this stuff. And I agree with the poster above, this stuff is selling fast.

Wonder if the prices will stay high. One of the best non-signed non-#ed base topps insert sets ever.....
