2014 Topps Chrome: Blaster vs. Hobby

[JDF5244]

Funny story…..
I had purchased a Hobby Box for my 9 year-old to open. I realized that I should probably also get something for his 6 year-old brother too (to avoid the fighting, arguing, etc…. give the little guy something to open too).
We let the little guy open his Blaster first…..he pulled a Roenis Elias Red Refractor Auto /25! Meanwhile, the 9 year-old who got the Hobby Box only pulled a Dean Anna Auto and a Jose Ramirez Refractor Auto.
I guess retail can be better than hobby sometimes!

Haha you know, I have money put aside to get a hobby box of this but thought of getting a blaster or two instead. Glad to see that could pay off!!

In general Topps Chrome blasters are not the way to go. autos run one in every 12 or something like that on average. Some products retail is the better route but Chrome is not.

I've bought 2 Blasters and one rack and pulled two autos, I think it's just luck of the draw.

I saw 6 boxes of Hobby that yielded 7 autos for me, 14 autos for the other person that had 4 boxes.
