What's a Bulk Break? Well, it's basically a Buzz Break -- but with a lot of packs or something that's found in volume but not in box or case form. Like this and want to see more -- or maybe there's a box you'd want to see busted? Send Buzz an email at BlowoutBuzz@blowoutcards.com.

What's Buzz-worthy: Well, I thought I did well last time with Asuka ink ... but I think this lot is even better overall. Not bad for a cheap grap that cost me less than what it would have for two blaster boxes back when these arrived with just one of these packs inside. I didn't get as many parallel cards in this run but really all but maybe two names here are top-tier talents when it comes to cardboard -- though nobody is breaking the bank except for maybe the auto. ... What are these? These are box-topper packs from retail blasters -- one per box -- with the only other chase cards in the boxes being serial-numbered base card parallels in the regular packs. The autograph is one in 86 of these packs -- and The Man is a solid find -- and then the Blue mat is one in 24 and the Blue shirt is one in 16. So I win this one. Throw in appearances by Banks, Lesnar and Cena and it's a pretty good run. ... There are other auto sets to find here -- all at much, much longer odds -- so I wouldn't expect to find any of them (let alone the one I did) in a lot this small. Statistically, you shouldn't even find one auto per blaster case ... but they are in there. There's not a huge amount of money upside here unless you demolish the odds but, well, my lot shows that finding good stuff is possible once again.
Product Grade: A (my original grade for release ... base set hasn't aged well at all with me)
Lot Grade: A+ (not only did I land rare ink, but I landed good ink ... again)
Fun Grade: A (box-topper lots can be simple breaks with some volume)
