Went to Walmart today and decided to grab two packs of 2013 Topps. They were the hanging two-pack things, they say Jumbo on them but they aren't hobby jumbo. 36 cards total each, just under $5 each.
Top pack, pack 1: nothing but base, though I did get Tommy Hanson for myself, as well as David Price and Buster Posey
Bottom pack, pack 1:
Justin Wilson RC
Chasing History: Cliff Lee, Carlos Gonzalez, Mark Trumbo
(The Lee and CarGo seem to be some kind of foil/refractor parallel as the Trumbo is different than them)
Blue parallel: Wandy Rodriguez, Phil Hughes, John Lackey
1972 Mini (or whatever it is): Eddie Mathews
Making their Mark: Salvador Perez
Cut to the Chase (die-cut): Chris Sale
Making their Mark game-used jersey: Stephen Strasburg
Top pack, pack 2: all base, but got BJ Upton and Brandon Beachy for myself, and Tom Koehler and Martin Maldonado RCs
Bottom pack, pack 2:
Alfredo Marte RC
Chasing History: Sandy Koufax, Ken Griffy Jr., Matt Cain (same foil, parallel thing for the Koufax and Jr.)
Blue parallel: Brandon Barnes, Eduardo Nunez, Paul Goldschmidt
1972 (?) Mini: Fred Lynn
Gold parallel: Miguel Cabrera
Emerald parallel (I believe it's called Emerald): Ernesto Frieri
So did I get really lucky with the bottom pack on each of these or is this how they all are? I haven't bought any '13 Topps this year so I might be wrong, but it seems to me that I got incredibly lucky. It's enough to make me want to drive back and get the rest off the rack. I bought the same kind of pack (two pack hanger) of O-Pee-Chee hockey cards a few weeks ago and definitely did not get anything close to the equivalent type of cards in that set so I didn't know if it is just Topps rather than the type of packs I bought.
