Official Nick Kurtz Thread.

[sandyfrank]

Had crazy luck on BC mega boxes and my one BC hobby box - Out of 6 Red Rookie redemptions got one Baldwin and 2 Kurtz! My BC Hobby box had one of the Kurtz Red Rookies and a numbered rookie insert.

Double dose of gold in today’s mail.

I hear ya in Caminero. That’s why I watched videos of his homers and studied his spray chart. He doesn’t hit cheapies, so I’m hopeful his numbers won’t suffer too much.

Nice, was it 201 or the debut card?

201. It’s one of the ones pictured above, in Post #252.

Good score, congrats!

[Wolverine]

Of 201, I've picked up his gold, pink diamante and tinsel. The pink diamante looks the best of all three.

Has anyone been able to figure out how many of the tinsel parallel they made? 500? 1,000?

Are you referring to the Meijer tinsel? Or the Walgreens yellow, which, for some reason, is also called a tinsel?

Either way, I haven’t been able to find any info on them. This site doesn’t even mention them, but they take a stab at all the other print runs of unnumbered parallels. (This is why I’m big on the aqua parallels.)

I’m a sucker for the new color parallels in flagship. (New to flagship, but obviously following the same pattern as Chrome.)

Great cards everyone!

I snagged a Heritage /76 for a shade under $90. Also added the base SP, Cartoon and Image variation.

Probably not going to get the flip bat error because I like displaying card fronts

Just got a 250 these are centered the best too.

Heritage/76
Is that a black chrome ref?
Unbelievable score if so

Wow. That makes the mis-cut Sapphires look like masterpieces.

I'm not so sure. Its hard to see, but top to bottom centering might be slightly off.

Wow who the heck’s working at the plant QA down the drain.

Years ago when I was a player collector I looked for these kind of miscuts. I thought it added character to my collections.

Yeah, but how are the surface, corners, and edges?

[LVDan]

I remember when the really bad centering sent 2022 TCU into a pricing swoon down to thirty something a box?
Between the QC and auto checklist I expect this one will come crashing way down to 200/box very soon.

No way to know for sure until we get it under a loupe.

I believe that's just the camera angle and lighting.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit to see those numbers. Especially where he will be hitting. I don't really "prospect" these days, but I have the upmost confidence that I am going to look back at the offseason prices and regret not grabbing some big ones.
