Man, I love blasters :)
Picked up 4 Blasters today.
1 - 2010 Absolute Mem - 11.99
1 - 2008 Upper Deck Materpieces - 5.99
2 - 2011 Contenders - 29.99
A bit much, but I'm bored and unsupervised
Any pulled a Gronk jersey from the Absolute.
A few border variations from the Masterpieces.
And these are my two hits from Contenders
And i'll leave it up to you guys to check the BV

Thanks!
I spent what I would've on a hobby box. Not the best of strategies, lol. I'm lucky to have pulled something this awesome!

Nice hit. I pulled one a while ago. Only took about 3 weeks for the redemption which was a pleasant surprise.

RE: Man, I love blasters :)
I'm not necessarily sure you'd do better spending the equivilent in Contenders Hobby - the /99 redemptions are apparently retail only. Hobby guarantees two on-card autos, but they may well be Bilal Powell and Jordan Todman. Then they guarantee two more - most likely nothing good.
All I know is that I got 2 hobby boxes and 5 blasters - 2 of the blasters had short print /99. Nothing in the hobby box was short print and I had two repeats (two Titus Young redemptions and two Rob Houslers). Okay, one of the hobby boxes was arguably better because it had a Cam Newton auto - the other one, the best auto was Torrey Smith. I can't say it was better than the 5 blasters. In fact, I'm not sure if even the regular Cam makes it better than 2 /99 short prints.
