NBA Hoops' SLAM magazine insert cards add fuel to retail fire
What's old is new again ... at least in some basketball card boxes found in the retail aisle.
That sums up the SLAM magazine insert cards in packs of 2020-21 Panini Hoops, which recently arrived with a look back at 20 past covers from the long-running magazine.
It's a simple lineup -- 20 covers -- in this first go, but there are five parallels of each one to chase and there's some competition to land a number of them over on eBay if you're like Buzz and haven't spotted anything yet out in the wild on the wax front.

Buzz Buys: Rhea Ripley, Hank Aaron, Roddy Piper, Weird Science, Bernie Sanders' mittens & a non-cataloged RC error?
Buzz buys and busts a lot of boxes right here for Buzz Breaks, but one of my goals is to rip a little less and talk more about cardboard that I -- and you -- might like. One way to do that? Simple show and tell -- present a few pick-ups and say why they captured my attention.
So, with all that said, here are a few Buzz Buys ... and this time around I play catch-up on some old names and school ties guys along with some new grabs.

THE DEMOLISHER
The Card: Rhea Ripley 2020 Topps Chrome WWE Gold Refractor Autograph (/50)
The Price: About the price of a box
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This young WWE star from Australia is a strong seller in last year's releases and this is one auto I had to grab as Gold Chrome is a favorite color of mine -- at least in combination of appeal and price. They are rarer but not too rare to be way too expensive and this one was a bit underpriced compared to other copies. I sprung a bit more than I might have for this one -- but that's what happens when there's just not as much wax out there for me to buy. The cool part was that I landed a sweet surprise bonus with this one ... I'll show it off next time. Ripley appears to have arrived on the main roster during the last WWE pay-per-view and lasted about halfway through the Royal Rumble match ... finishing second. That indicates she should be primed for an interesting debut run and she has a persona that makes her feel like a six-foot-tall demolisher, though her look was still evolving at the time this card was made. Unlike some young stars, she actually has a number of autographed cards in 2020 releases and I'm pretty close to having locked down at least one from each of them ... and that's pretty strong for me as I just don't have the budget or patience to chase full rainbows. In other words, I'm sold.
