In 25 years of collecting, I don't remember busting two blasters like this!

In 25 years of collecting, I don't remember busting two blasters like this!
OK, disclaimer before we get to the goods.

I have pulled more valuable single cards out of individual blasters ... but I have never busted two (and only two!) blasters of this caliber, top to bottom, pack to pack, at the same time.

Stopped by the same Walmart today where I pulled my gold Puig out of Update last week. Saw they had two left, so I grabbed them.

We'll start with the "worst" one first.

Never gets old pulling these two gentlemen ...

Then we have a couple of quality rookies, as well as a nice Tigers PC pull. I hear the kid in the middle is pitching pretty well these days ...

And then, no "RJ Break" would rate very high without these two guys ...

OK, now for the one I actually opened first. Leading off, a nice Tigers pull ...

Then, BOOM, some nice color for the Harper and Trout collections ...

And, oh yeah, this was a nice little addition ...

So, you know, uh, thanks for looking, and ... wait, is that a chubby in your pocket (this is funny if you've seen "Black Sheep") ...

Also pulled this ... BLAMMO!

Yasiel Puig SP variation! Yeah, I'd say that was $40 well spent!

Thanks K-Mac ... yeah, I'm definitely calling it quits on baseball this year.

I actually went to Wally World on the off chance that they had retail Hoops in already, and was just going to pass on the Update blasters, but you know how it is.

I'm always a sucker for "the last blaster (or two) rule," LOL

I just checked the bay, too ... didn't see any other copies of the sliding SP ... lots of the "big glove" and a couple of the "arms raised" variations though... maybe mine is a SSP!

Wow RJ....very nice blaster pulls. That SSP is awesome. I wasn't even aware that there were 4 SP's of Puig on this numbered card til I went to load org. Anyway, nice color and though I actually don't like him....that Harper is one very nice looking card. Congrats again!
