Blaster Break: 2009 Topps 206 Baseball

February 11, 2010

You know.. when my wife goes grocery shopping and I specifically ask for a pack of 206.. look what I end up with! A freakin’ blaster! Jeez..
This will be a short and simple blaster break post… I only wanted a pack!
I already got a Mize which I showed in a different post, but this is the short print!
..hence the no-numbered back.
Here’s the bronzes.
…and the minis.
If you’re wondering why all the cards have stains on the back, they’re printed like that on purpose.
Ok, now I think I have enough to post a want list. It should be up shortly.

2003 Upper Deck Standing "O" Baseball

January 2, 2009

This 4 card pack came up with a couple of favorite pulls out of my latest stack of packs. Ever since I first saw this set back last year when I started collecting, I wanted some of those die cuts! For some reason, they always looked bigger to me in pictures, these cards are tiny!

This Hideki rookie card is the most valuable card in the set!

Here’s what I got:

#9 Chipper Jones
#17 Kerry Wood
#115 Hideki Matsui [World Premieres]
#S-30 Roy Oswalt [Die Cut]

What it cost me: $ 1.50
Beckett max worth: $12.05

Insert odds I beat: 1:4 [World Premiers SP]
Most valuable card: #115 Hideki Matsui [World Premieres] @ $10.00
