Rare 'blaster box' moments.... - Page 3

I don't have a picture of it, but out of last years A & G I pulled an autographed card of Jason McElwain, that autistic kid from that high school game that ESPN was crazy about for a while. I don't have it anymore though.

I bought a Blaster box of Topps FB in 2004 and when I took out the 20 packs I noticed that one pack was extremely thick so I saved it for last. When I opened it, it had 6 or 7 autographed cards in it (I think the names were): Ahman Green, Greg Jones, Dominick Davis, Cody Pickett, Kevin Jones, and a Kevin Jones premiere prospects auto #/100. There may have been another auto but I can't remember. Needless to say, it was probably the best $20 I ever spent.

Pulled the 1/1 redemption for this from a blaster back in 2000...

And a friend of mine pulled a Mia Hamm Red Auto /10 redemption from an 07 Allen & Ginter blaster, sold it for $400+

Ted...That counts! That is awesome! I almost wish the companies would go back to something like this....would make the printing plates much more collectable!

Whoa!!

Holy crap...I'm speechless!

That is some nice stuff guys, congratulations on your pulls...Its nice to see that some get awesome stuff like that out of the blasters!

btw side note- bigpapi is now the new owner of the Ortiz card up top! I traded w/him for a YSL-jersey which i was missing and will be a part of my collection..thanks!

hey matts, that is a beauty of a RC/auto...bejesus!!

What'd you do with it? Maybe not a Laker fan?

matts_cardz · 11-21-2008, 07:18 PM

nah I usually sell everything I bust unless its a true legend....I sold it for $150-200 which I believe now is a big mistake because the autos from the same brand alone /1299 are doing around $80
