2012 Heritage Retail + Hobby on my box busts

2012 Heritage Retail + Hobby on my box busts
I noticed something very odd when the new Heritage came out. I first bought 3 blaster boxes from Walmart. Opened them, sorted and put most of the cards into a binder to begin the base set collection. I then ordered 2 hobby boxes. After I sorted those and began to place them in the pages, I nearly had a complete set of the base set. But weird thing is, after sorting the hobby cards in to numerical order, the numbers of the set I was missing from the hobby, were the exact numbers in the set of retail cards I had in my binder. In other words, 3 blaster boxes worth of cards and I had 3 duplicates after sorting out my hobby boxes. I was left only missing 4 cards of the 425 card base set. Very odd

That is weird. Did you account for color swaps and sp's? Also remember there are different parallels from walmart too.

Consider yourself lucky haha. I've gone through about 4 Blasters and 2 Hobby boxes and I'm still short around 50 cards for the 425 base set...this is after trading a ton of doubles. I ended up with so so so many doubles from the blasters alone.
