I'll say! Have not seen JD yet either
I did hit 2 Bouchard in first 3 cases, but none since

Very solid break

Unfortunately the boxes are no longer like the cigar box style anymore. Just thin cardboard.

Don’t need flags but interested in what peppers you have.

The guy I do most of my group breaks with doesn't do much Ginter. Found this hidden in my stack of base cards from a few personal boxes I had him rip me.

Nice surprise!

I don’t know A&G well enough to know, but can you tell from the front of the card it’s a parallel or 1/1?

Do you source your cases from the same distributor? ie would all 25 have rolled off the production line in a row?

Not instantly. It's glossy, but not so glossy that it's incredibly obvious.

I noticed at first because the back is white (was a "hmph, that looks weird" moment), then saw the numbering.

Agree.. i wish they would of done 50 of these ....

I would like to get one also.. but i am guessing you are looking at a lot of money...

Nice feeling when you find your third glow in the dark mini in two cases as you are sorting through your stack of mini's.

Do they feel very different? Can you spot them straight away or is it more by touch?

You can instantly tell that they are different pending you touch them.

But they are easy to miss as I missed two of the three that I hit.

Box lids are too thin now. Been that way for past few years. No way they could do a 1/1 in the lid now.

Methinks that the lack of cover paper over rip minis was a mistake as well. Pretty sloppy this year...

I thought the same thing, but the flashlight trick doesn't work, so maybe they did that on purpose.

Flashlight trick does tell you if it's metal or not.
