Topps Holiday Blaster - Started out Sad, Got Happier

Topps Holiday Blaster - Started out Sad, Got Happier
Bros in baseball,

Grabbed a blaster of Walmart Holiday this morning on the way to work.

Was bummed that the first card I saw was an ornament card of ... Wander Franco.

Because if there's anyone who personifies the joy and innocence of Christmas ...

But a few packs down karma took control and I pulled a Santa Claus insert, 1955 style!

First Santa card I've ever pulled, very fun ...

Thanks!

I love the throwing motion in the action shot, my imagination tells me it's a snowball instead of a baseball, LOL

Santa has pretty good form and follow through as well.

Captain? Everyone knows Mrs. Claus runs things up there.
I'm always open to trading.  My wants are varied (multiple sets from 1980 to now and some misc. players) and all my wants are marked.  Open offers welcome!

Nice pull!

I've opened 16 - 18 boxes (can't remember exact number) of Holiday and have yet to pull a Santa card. I bought a box for my brother at Christmas and he pulls one. Crazy.

I'd like to do the Santa set but need to wait for the prices to come down. I did splurge and win the '75 Topps Santa card on ebay because I have always loved that set and it's my birth year.

Thats pretty cool. Is it pretty tough odds?

Good news - your question finally forced me to look up the pack odds on the Topps website, because as we know, they are no longer listing them on the packs or boxes themselves.

Public Service Announcement, my friends ... to find these, look up the product itself on the Topps website ... then look under the "Description" tab, then select "Odds" ...

According to the website, the Santa cards are 1 in every 161 packs, or 1 in every 17 boxes.

Not bad! Don't know if this is the first year of the Santa cards but I've never pulled one before and I usually do 3-4 boxes per year.

Nice hit RJ. You can never go wrong with Santa. You must be on the nice list.

Not so sure about wnclark22@outlook.com HA!

Gotta admit, I was unreasonably happy to pull a Santa card.
