Opened three boxes, I must have gotten lucky because quality was great. Well centered and only a couple with any damage. Best hits were probably Cherry Blossom 1987 Ohtani and Franco.

Anyone know the print run on the base cards? Was trying to compare what the price should be compared to Series 1,2 and update on the key RC cards to buy singles...specifically Julio Rodriguez and Wander Franco.

I'm sure someone else will have better math than me, but I have it around 12,000-13,000 base of each card.

220 card set

/99 of Cherry Blossoms

99 x 220 = 21,780 Cherry Blossom parallels

Cherry Blossoms = 1:13 packs

283,140 packs x 10 cards per pack (you could argue 9 or 9.5 with inserts / parallels)

2,831,400 cards divide by 220 card set

12,870 of each base card. (11,500 if you use 9 cards per pack)

Here is one of the Ohtani autos. I would assume all of the autos are 1/1:

1987 Cherry Tree + Cherry Blossoms sell very well. Found it easy as well at 2x with considerable amount of valuable inventory (Tork Jade /75, Altuve 1/1 auto, etc) not sold yet. Even have several singles out for grading.

This was one of my favorite products to open with the short checklist and number of parallels, but I decided to quit while I was ahead and not order more than the 4 boxes I started with.

I believe there have been some buyers of the UK boxes that have not received boxes yet. From my experience, the Japan boxes ship fairly fast.

Do you like Big Ben or Cherry Blossoms more?

On the 1987 front, the Cherry Trees seem considerably more popular and expensive than their Merlin counterparts.
