Lewis would be a great pull with all the hype, and Robert, Arozarena, Jiminez, and Bichette too.
Will post when I rip it open.
Ah, forgot those, probably because I haven't seen a single box out here.
Those are probably fine because they're the newest release.
Walmart Holiday is actually my favorite Topps product because it's like a "best of" the three series, plus a mem or auto card.
I pulled this one out of 2019 Holiday, numbered to 10:
In fact, this card is noteworthy because the night I pulled this marked the first time I ever saw the origins of the Doosh Bag Network ... after I busted this out in the car, I had to go back in to Walmart to get a couple of things I actually went there for (LOL), and there were these two greasy Bubbas grabbing every single box.
Remember, this is back in the day when you could walk into Walmart and see dozens of blasters.
I heard one of the Bubbas say to the other Bubba, "I heard there's some good autographs in here."
I wanted to tell them, "Yeah, like the Acuna auto out of 10 I just pulled," but I thought, nah, why ruin their holiday fun?
Retail has been pretty much all downhill since.
Ironically, the last time I saw a decent amount of retail product in that same store (about a year and half later), I pulled this out of Update:
Mike Trout SSP!
Anyway, good luck on your breaks - if you get a dupe of the Arozarena I would be interested in trading for one, I PC him and don't have that one yet.
