2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - jlchinn - 05-24-2016 I haven't bought baseball cards and been on Beckett in almost a decade, but I decided I'd buy a couple just for the heck of it. I was at Target and got a blaster of Gypsy Queen. Loved the artwork, loved the product, and I was extremely satisfied pulling these. The Granderson is /250, and the Palmer is like a refractor card. The Smoltz is 4/5. Super excited to pull it, but it came out with a couple light scratches on it. Still pumped! From what I remember, my many blasters back in the mid 2000's didn't have nearly as good hits, and I've been reading about Diamond Kings having some solid retail pulls as well. Have companies started upping their retail game? RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - chrisjoy - 05-24-2016 Welcome back to Beckett. Very sweet hit on the Smoltz. the best card I have from a Gypsy Queen blaster is a Reggie Jackson Relic, not numbered. still pretty cool, it is my first Jackson hit. RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - franciscomarina - 05-24-2016 Congratulations on the hit and welcome back. RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - Phillies_Joe - 05-24-2016 Welcome back. Congrats on the great Smoltz, thats a great looking patch. BTW, the Palmer is a "Foil" mini....Cards 301-350 have a foil variation and are only available in retail. I love 'em! Thanks for sharing.

Welcome back RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - wordsense - 05-24-2016 Nice pull and luck on that Smoltz. RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - DrMitchJ - 05-24-2016 That's one heck of a 'Welcome Back' from The Gypsy Queen! She must have wanted you back real bad to give you such a warm return! Congrats and continued good luck! RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - wibs13 - 05-25-2016 I also bought a GQ blaster yesterday and the best card I pulled was a Conforto RC. The rest were junk. So I would say you did pretty darn good RE: 2016 Gypsy Queen Blaster - First cards in years! - alstott9adams - 05-26-2016 Nasty patch on the Smoltz
