A nice GQ PC hit parade (update)
Didn't get any Yankee hits, but my Marlins PC did well with my recent GQ blasters from Target. No autos, but I'm not disappointed. I was pretty happy with the Marlins hits.

Yelich mini relic 25/25
Cishek mini relic
Latos paper /499
Prado mini silver /199
----------
Adams mini silver /199
Cepeda mini gold /99
Molina & Gooden mini sp
Braun paper /499
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Nice 25/25. Always like the look of the mini relics framed up to regular size.

No autos yet ... Would love to nail down one of the retail exclusive mini autos!
So far, I'm into 6 blasters and 2 hangers @ $140 and probably would have done better with a hobby box ... But then again, I've got 2 pretty cool relics (yelich and Trout) out of the 4 and most of the common autos I've seen on eBay are garbage. I'll probably end up getting a hobby box when they go on sale ... Patience is a virtue? Or my luck,they'll sell out and raise the price

Good stuff, Doc. Always a thrill to pull nice PC.
How are you hitting so many mini relics??!! I have purchased 6 blasters to this point, and the only relic I've pulled is a full-size Ryu. No autos. No silvers. Only a couple gold minis...that aren't listed? WTF Beckett. Literally every set has a gold parallel!! Slackers.

Nice stuff. I am not normally a big fan of mini's but they are starting to grow on me

You have to feel inside the blaster box ... By using 'the force'. Luckily, pack searchers can't do that
Actually, my Target got in 6 blasters. I bought 4 and then returned for the other 2. I got 2 of the hanger packs, too. So I got 3 relics from the 6 blasters and 1 from the hanger 3 pack.
Did anyone pull the retail exclusive mini auto? I was wondering what makes them exclusive.

I think someone pulled a Bryce Harper auto mini.
I bought two more blasters earlier. No relics or autos. Got my first silver mini though. Couple more gold minis.
Sigh.

I pulled a Castillo retail auto. It was pretty cool, but I didn't care for him so I traded it away already (got a nice framed Finnegan, thanks!). It's a mini card, but was set inside a larger "frame" to make the card full size. If I recall correctly, it also had a cover over the mini card so you couldn't touch it. But that may not be correct.
