Best Blaster I've had all year! 2015 Topps Chrome
I think this is the best blaster I've had all year!
2015 Topps Chrome ... Last box on the shelf ... It looked sad and lonely.
Chrome and Sepia Bryant
Chrome Gallo Gold /50
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.

Is our little friend maybe showing up in the deep south for the winter?

Streaky has been gone for sooooooo long, I wouldn't recognize him if I bumped into him. I suspected that someone here on the boards found and kidnapped the little stinker, but nobody has been hitting retail streaks lately. I had 2 out of 4 decent update blasters (black Gallo /99 & Buxton /99) , then 2 boxes of garbage, then this blaster. I'm on a 1/1 streak

It's been cold here for me, too. Pulled a Trout variation from an Update hanger box, a Bryant purple Platinum from a $5 repack and a few little guys here and there, but nothing too great. Been focusing on singles and waiting for Draft ... hopefully it'll have a good Twins checklist.

Regarding streaky: My 8 year old might currently have possession. :-) He bought a pack of Bowman Chrome a couple weeks ago, and said "Dad I have just 1 thick card in here". It turns out to be a Bowman Black Gleyber Torres Auto numbered 1 of 25. Then just last week he bought a pack of Topps Update (The 50 card pack) and pulled a Troy Tulowitzki jumbo All Star Jersey Relic and Auto numbered 4 of 6.
Needless to say, his older brother is pissed and in a slump. :-)

I think we found who kidnapped streaky!

Next time I go to the LCS or a retail store, can I Skype with you and have your son point out the right box to buy?
2 PACKS(not boxes) with big hits!!!
He just did better than I have all year almost. haha
