Blaster hot box?
Bought five boxes of 2012 Bowman Chrome from WalMart. One box had all x-fractors except for one refractor and a non-refractor prospect auto (Andrew Chafin). Is this a collating mistake or are there hot boxes in the system? Thanks.
It does no good to get on the right track if you are headed in the wrong direction.

They are a good surprise! They did the same thing with 2012 Topps Chrome, only it was all purple refractors with the occassional xfractor and refractor in it. I opened 3 TC and 1 BC blasters. One TC blaster was a hotbox and the BC was a hotbox as well. I did fairly decent with retail this year

Yeah, there are X-Fractor hot blasters at retail, like there are refractor hot boxes at hobby.

Definitely a surprise. Just wish the 'graph would have been a superfractor auto of an up and coming stud!

Box of SPs sounds awesome! Was there an SP in each pack or was every card an SP?
