ALL RIGHTY TIME FOR THE FORGOTTEN MIDDLE CHILDREN OF MY NIGHT OWL CARDS TOP THIRTY LIST WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN POSTED LIKE TWO MONTHS AGO BUT THEN STUFF HAPPENED AND IT WAS THE HOLIDAYS AND NOW NONE OF YOU EVEN REMEMBER THE OTHER CARDS BUT I'VE UPLOADED THE IMAGES AND I'M PROBABLY RUNNING OUT OF CLOUD SPACE SO I BETTER USE WHAT I HAVE AND CAN YOU TELL I DON'T KNOW HOW TO START THIS POST
#20 - 2014 WACKY PACKAGES THE VAMPIRE DAIRIES
I'LL NEVER SERIOUSLY COLLECT WACKY PACKAGES BUT I LOVE VAMPIRES AND THIS IS A FIRST-CLASS PUN. MOVE OVER, COUNT DUCKULA
#19 - 1978 KELLOGG'S GEORGE FOSTER
WHEN I REQUESTED A GIVEAWAY BOX, I KNEW GREG WASN'T GOING TO INCLUDE THE JUNKIEST OF THE JUNK, BUT I ABSOLUTELY DID NOT EXPECT VINTAGE KELLOGG'S CARDS OF MVP WINNERS EITHER. I HAD A VERY GOOD 2022 PICKING UP A TON OF OLD KELLOGG'S CARDS AND I HOPE TO CONTINUE THIS TREND IN 2023
#18 - 1981 BASEBALL IMMORTALS BILL KLEM
THIS IS BEING POSTED EITHER RIGHT BEFORE OR RIGHT AFTER A HUGE POST ON BASEBALL IMMORTALS CARDS SO I'LL LET THAT POST EXPOUND UPON THE SET. LONG STORY SHORT I LOVE THIS SET AND I AM VERY BELATEDLY TRYING TO BUILD IT BECAUSE I WAS NEVER ABLE TO BUY THE FACTORY SET FROM A MAGAZINE AD WHEN I WAS A KID. ALSO, THIS PICTURE OF BILL KLEM IS FANTASTIC
#17 - 2021 ALLEN & GINTER JUAN SOTO
I'VE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS MANY, MANY TIMES, BUT AFTER COMLETING THE ALLEN AND GINTER SET EVERY YEAR FOR LIKE A DECADE, I CAN BARELY SCRAPE TOGETHER ENOUGH TO FILL A PAGE NOWADAYS. THIS WAS ONE OF MY FIRST GINTER CARDS FROM 2021, AND ONE OF THE FEW JUAN SOTO CARDS I HAVE PERIOD SO IT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. THAT'S A PRETTY COOL LOGO ON THE CAP TOO
#16 - 2011 TOPPS LINEAGE ANDRE DAWSON
LINEAGE REALLY PISSED ME OFF IN 2011 AND I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHY ANYMORE. I KNOW I SHOULD HOLD A GRUDGE BUT THAT'S REALLY HARD TO DO WITH GORGEOUS CARDS LIKE THIS. HAWK + EXPOS + ROOKIE CUP = 😍
#15 - 2022 TOPPS JONAH HEIM
IT TOOK UNTIL DECEMBER TO BREAK SINGLE DIGITS IN MY 2022 TOPPS FLAGSHIP COLLECTION BUT THAT DIDN'T MATTER BECAUSE I GOT PROBABLY THE BEST CARD IN THE SET RIGHT HERE
#14 - 2021 ALLEN & GINTER YOGI BERRA
MOARER 2021 ALLEN AND GINTER! AND I ACTUALLY COLLECT THIS PLAYER ON PURPOSE! VERY VERY NICE
*****BONUS*****
FOR SOME REASON I ACCIDENTALLY UPLOADED THE UNCROPPED SCAN OF THE PAST 9 CARDS SO YOU GET AN EXTRA BEHIND THE SCENE LOOK AT MY BLOGGERY PROCESS
#13 - 1970 TOPPS LUIS APARICIO
ALONG WITH THE FOSTER THIS CARD WAS THE HOLY SHIT MOMENT WHERE I TRULY UNDERSTOOD HOW DAMN GOOD THIS BOX WAS. VINTAGE HALL OF FAMERS ARE MOST DEFINITELY NOT JUNK. FOR SOME REASON THIS CARD SEEMS VERY ICONIC TO ME AND I'M NOT SURE WHY. I THINK IT JUST IMPRINTED ON ME AS A CHILD THAT THIS WAS A COOL CARD AND IT STUCK
#12 (TIE) - 2010 TOPPS EDDIE MATHEWS & CHIPPER JONES DIAMOND DUOS
CHEATING, BUT HOW DO YOU CHOOSE BETWEEN THESE TWO. I HAVE A GREAT NEED FOR AN UPDATED CARD WITH EDDIE, CHIPPER AND AUSTIN RILEY ON IT. I ALSO APPRECIATE THE HEYWARD/FREEMAN CARD'S CONTIGUOUS BACKGROUND THAT LOOKS LIKE FREDDIE IS RUNNING AWAY FROM JASON IN TERROR. JASON JUST CAUGHT UP TO YOU IN L.A., BETTER KEEP RUNNING FREDDIE
#11 - 2016 ALLEN & GINTER MOOSE MASCOTS IN THE WILD
MOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
I HAD THIS CARD ALREADY BUT WHO CARES BECAUSE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
THESE CARDS WERE SO GOOD, JUST IMAGINE WHAT THE TOP TEN COULD BE! IMAGINE HARD YOU SAW HOW LONG IT TOOK THIS POST TO COME OUT

I've got a ton of the Immortals, so hit me up. QAPLAGCA at yahoo.com. It's because I'm a maniac and am trying to collect all three variants (first printing, not first and MLB logos on the backs).
I have some extra A&G too, since that's the only thing I buy new.
The 2023 Topps design actually reminds me of that Lineage set.
lol on the Heyward-Freeman combo card.
If you still opened packs, you'd have a lot more Sotos. I open current packs once every 3 months now and I have like 22 new Sotos.
Heim sure knows how to strike a pose.
