So I'm not sure if this is kosher, but the main point of posting this is to make sure y'all know that 2010 Topps Magic RETAIL isn't completely loaded. Against my better judgement I bought a couple blasters of 2010 Magic because I was smitten by the lure of all those amazing pulls I've been reading about here from 2010 Magic retail.

And.......

Absolute crap. :) I smile only because I can hear all those "I told you so..." responses you all are probably typing in the reply boxes....

Sure a couple of short printed base cards here and there, a worth-$1.22 Dez Bryant base insert (rookie-something-or-another)... times TWO, by the way, because Topps collation sucks (I got literally 40% overlap from the two boxes, including TWO Dez Byrant and Ndamukong Suh rookie insert base things. What are the odds?!?

Anyhow, no need to post photos of the base here. Main point is just to be the seemingly only post to say he/she got jack out of these blasters. Hope that means the guy who bought the remaining blaster got that Tebow auto...

Now I'm $40 shy of buying that 2010 Contenders HOBBY box I'm holding out for. Better hustle the street a bit this week....

Oh yes, the other thing I needed to mention is that I bought two packs of 2010 Elite the other day, and got a Jason Pierre-Paul Aspirations Die Cut Auto (44/49). No a bad grab, but it is on the market if anyone's interested.

Yea, you don't see all the boxes that have been busted with crap in them. People only post the good ones.

haha, same thing happened to me. was checking Target for blasters since all this madness hit. finally found some so bought 2 boxes. Had the same Dan Marino Classic Moments or whatever and same 2 Dexter McCluster Rookie Spotlight things as well in each box. No numbered mini(2 blasters and 1 hobby box and still only one i have is a CJ i had to buy off ebay) either. Oh well.

tsu....nice hit on the pierre paul, i sent u a pm back about it. as for the blasters they can be good and bad. i got an auto out of the first 2 i bought. went back and eventually bought the last 2 they had and did't get much. but at $20 i would rather take that loss sometimes when i have the itch rather than $100 and get a bunch of junk. that being said keep pulling my giants and u got a buyer in me buddy
