QUARTER BOX CRAP - BUCK 5

 HOKEY SMOKES, THIS BATCH ACTUALLY HAS A CARD I NEED FOR A COLLECTION. HOW'D THAT HAPPEN

2022 TOPPS JASON HEYWARD BLUE PARALLEL


YESSSSS JASON HEYWARD CARD I DON'T HAVE. I GET TO ADD A NEW ONE TO TCDB AND SLOWLY CLAW MY WAY UP THE RANKINGS. I NEED TO ADD A FEW MORE PLAYER COLLECTIONS ON THERE SO I HAVE MORE CHANCES TO GET A CHEAP THRILL FROM MAKING NUMBER GO UP WHILE HUNTING THROUGH JUNK BOXES. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT FLAVOR OF PARALLEL THIS IS. THERE'S NO SERIAL NUMBER AND I'M GUESSING IT'S FROM SOME KIND OF RETAIL PRODUCT. MAYBE WAL-MART? I'LL FIND OUT FOR SURE WHEN I GET AROUND TO LOGGING IT I GUESS

2021 CHRONICLES CRUSADE JUAN SOTO


YET ANOTHER JUAN SOTO CHRONICLES CARD FROM THE QUARTER BOX. I'M HAPPY TO FIND CRUSADE CARDS OF RANDOM ROOKIES WHO HAVE ALREADY BEEN OPTIONED OUT TO THE MINORS, LET ALONE SOTO. I WONDER HOW MANY MORE I NEED TO GET THE FULL JUAN SOTO COLLECTION FROM 2021 CHRONICLES. I PROBABLY HAVE ALL THE REALLY GOOD ONES NOW AT LEAST. 

2021 CHROME 1952 TOPPS REHASH THINGY EDDIE MATHEWS


NOT PASSING UP ON A CHEAP EDDIE MATHEWS CARD. I AM SICK OF THE 1952 DESIGN BUT IT LOOKS GOOD. I LIKE THE BLOCK M LOGO TALTHOUGH THE TM IS ANNOYING. THE CARD NUMBER ON THIS THING IS 654!! HOW BIG IS THIS DAMN THING?  ARE THEY CARRYING OVER THE NUMBERING FROM PREVIOUS 52 REHASH SETS LIKE THEY DID WITH TURKEY RED? THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO NEED FOR A CHROME SET TO PUSH SEVEN HUNDRED CARDS, NO WONDER THESE THINGS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE NOW. THAT'S TOO MANY CARDS. THERE ARE TOO MANY CARDS

2021 TOPPS FIRE BRYCE HARPER  FIRED UP


THIS CARD IS UGLY BUT I WILL TAKE ALL THE BRYCE HARPER INSERTS PLEASE. THERE'S LIKE, SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS CARD FROM THE TEXT TO THE GHOST LEGS TO THE YELLOW. SO MUCH YELLOW. IT'S SO INCREDIBLY UGLY IT SORT OF WORKS. THE YELLOW TURNS GOLD IF YOU LOOK AT IT THE RIGHT WAY AND BRYCE'S EXPRESSION SAYS "DAMN THIS CARD IS UGLY BUT IT'S KINDA COOL THO" THE ARTIST'S LOGO IS ON THE BACK BUT I'M NOT MENTIONING THEM BECAUSE I DON'T NEED SOME INFLUENCER FINDING THIS POST AND HASSLING ME ABOUT CALLING THE UGLY CARD UGLY. I BOUGHT IT DIDN'T I, LEAVE ME ALONE

Yeah, that set is 700 cards. And they're doing one again this year, but officially last year, of the 1953 set. See, it comes out this year, but it's a 2022 set, because it's an "anniversary" set so we can't actually date it as of the anniversary. Confused? Then they're doing their job.

I have a strange love for that 2021 Chrome Anniversary set considering how sick to death I am of the '52 design. It just looks so good. The new version with the '53 design? Ick.

Pretty sure I have the completed 22' Platinum Ann set in my dupes boxes. I kept my PC guys and Braves. I bought a monster box of dime cards for $20.00 and they were all in there along with a complete 22' Star Wars set with all of the parallels too! Now that the 22' set is out I should be finding those loaded in the dime boxes soon. Tell any influencer that doesn't like what you write/say, to influence this..... :)

I really like the 2021 Topps Chrome Platinum set... but at 700 cards, I gave up trying to build the set. I would love to buy a complete one, but they aren't cheap. Not as excited for the 2022 version... but might grab one box for a rainy day.

I saw blasters of the 2022 release over the weekend and thought it was the 2021 release because stupid release schedule. But at 30 bucks for 28 cards I wasn't gonna get one.
