from Topps:
2 Hobby, 2 Monster, 2 Blasters Best two cards were Judge Image Variation and maybe Bryce Harper No Sig. I wasn't ripping explicitly for value - I wanted to build a set because for as much as I absolutely hate the Topps Heritage brand, I'm still an eternal fan of the '75 set. At 20% off current prices, this would be palatable. I did get two silver refractors: Frelick and Jazz. Frelick may have been my best hit, now that I think about it. Oh, and lastly, I've thoroughly enjoyed sorting and looking at this set. The price point is simply too high. |

Enjoying watching what everyone is pulling. I’ve been skunked on 3 hobby boxes, though I’m looking for red ink ROAs mainly.

1:31 hobby boxes. Basically 1 red auto per three cases. Close to placing a single number on the roulette wheel 3 times and hoping to hit. |

This is how it's done.
Wait for singles and buy only what you want.

I know Yount has signed for Topps in recent years. Seems like a missed opportunity for a Brett/Yount two-sided dual, no?

No, 2024 is still young. They will slowly trickle these out.

Love the product. Just dripping with nostalgia
Just hit a sal frelick and Dennis exkersley autos in same box which was nice But my biggest gripe is sorting the inserts. Even with my glasses I can’t see the numbers at all Plus smaller gripe is the dark almost burnt base backs Still love it. Very fun |

Nope! I do make 3 sets per year and hold on to some of the parallels/swaps/actions too.

Same issue with not being able to read the backs. I enjoy reading them, and these are very difficult to see. |

![]() ![]() 66 and 305. So two Ranger pitchers have two cards. I would assume one of those should have been their closer Jose LeClerc. |

I agree 100%. Anyone with limited skills in Excel could figure out if there was duplication in less than a minute. It's crazy that this happened not once, but twice.

They didn't just miss the opportunity for a Brett/Yount dual, but also for a Rice/Lynn dual and/or a Rice/Lynn/Fisk triple. If I had to guess, I'm guessing that they decided to hold Yount back for HHN. |

Went to Walmart to pick up some stuff. They got heritage in. Got 1 monster box, one hanger, and 1 fat pack. Overall, the monster box is the best. Didn't get a blaster box though. Hangers are probably the worst. I got a bunch of base, 1 insert and 1 sp for the hanger. There might be boxes that has only an insert. The fat pack, I got 1 sp and 2 insert. Monster box is probably the best. I got several sps, 3 blue Sparkle chrome, chrome /999, and black and white base card.
Ranking 1. Monster 2. Fat packs 3. Hangers Didn't get any blasters but I'm sure they are better than hangers.
