(* -- names aren't yet formally revealed for the various parallel colors/textures here, so it's all slightly mysterious at the moment ... I went with familiar names for textures used with other releases)
What's Buzz-worthy: My second box yields yet another 1980s pack in this one -- and this time it's a second auto from that decade as well. While my first audio was crisp and clean, this one was a little more all over the place in terms of the sticker and ink flow, but the name was a familiar one to me as Thomas was on The Fall Guy for more than 100 episodes over five seasons in the 1980s and was more recently also seen as that same character in the movie remake's post-credits scene. She has a number of other credits since the late-1970s but that series is the one most probably know best if they were around watching TV then. (Little Buzz watched it for the action with cars, wrecks and explosions like a lot of simple TV productions had back then ... at least a lot of it was justified with the main character being a stuntman who also worked as a bounty hunter.) Despite the look of the sig, actual sales here are strong -- it's sold for $80 more recently on eBay, making my box a win, while asking prices for other 1/1s in this release range from $65 up to $150. That helps make my pair of boxes above average given my other finds with one pack still left to present here. ... As I noted before, I had a superb heater of a streak opening boxes of the preview edition for this set -- a number of 1/1 finds in several packs (check the archives) -- so when this all-1/1 edition was recently announced I pounced on a couple of boxes. Why? I liked it the first time ... and this time nothing but 1/1 card in a box with a 1/1 auto, too, was a no-brainer.
