White Whale or Wood Auto Relic?
Pulled a White Whale Auto Relic Printing Plate from TTT yesterday, but when I redeemed it, I received a confirmation for an Auto Relic Wood Card.
Being that they are both 1/1, does it really matter? I'm happy either way.
Completing the following:
2010 Topps Chrome X-Fractors (142/220 - 64.5%)
2010 Bowman Platinum Refractors (60/100 - 60%)
2011 Topps Diamond (444/660 - 67.3%)
Finished 2011 Sets: Topps Series 1 Master, Heritage Master, Heritage Chrome, Gypsy Queen Framed Green, Gypsy Queen Minis, Heritage Black

I think the Wood is better. There are 4 plates and only 1 wood.

I like the wood so much better. The white whales pictures are so bland. The woods are beautiful.

I know that the wood is cooler, but then what does the person who pulls/ buys the wood get. I would be pissed if I bought a wood and ended up with a white whale. Maybe Topps would reward you for your honesty.

The wood is way cooler, and will sell better on ebay if you choose to sell.
I pulled a wood McCutchen a couple weeks ago and they are beautiful cards. Plus, like someone else already mentioned, there is only one wood card by four of the plates.
Congrats on a sweet card of a sweet player! I would be interested to hear what else you pulled from your TTT?
