Stopped at the local walmart last night on the way home from work, Saw they got some hobby blister packs that had either 2 hobby packs of finest or 2 hobby packs of prime for 15.99. Also had a hobby 4 pack with 1 spx, 1 fleer retro and 2 ud conference greats. I picked up three 2 packs (2 finest and 1 prime) and a spx 4 pack and got a hit in each. My prime had 2 hits in it. Heres what i pulled:

2014 finest marquise goodwin prism patch/auto/25 (4 color)
2014 finest kadeem carey rookie red patch/auto /75 (2 color)
2014 prime odell beckham gold rookie /250
2014 prime blake bortles/marquise lee dual relic /25 (both patchs were 2 color)
2014 prime allen robinson level IV booklet 5/5 (4 color patch)
2014 spx kelvin benjamin jumbo winning material jersey

not too bad I guess. Did really good with the prime 2 pack.

Not too bad?! I think you did great! Didn't know wlamart carried these either. Are they a new product to bridge between hobby and retail locations? Congrats!

Likey something that Crossmark or other company that sells the cards through Wal-Mart has put together from Topps unsold stock. They often will buy it and repack it like this. Some of the Wal-Marts here have Chrome football hobby boxes.

They are new. They are repacked by a third party company. My WalMart still had a bunch left gonna grab some more tonight.

Got one of these this morning. Kinda cool. Instead of blowing $20 on a blaster you feel like you get a real chance with these. I got a Fleer Retro Kenny Stills auto and a P.Manning SPX diecut.

It is a pretty good purchase for 15.99 as it seems every 2 packer of Finest has a patch card auto as I bought 4 and got 4 autopatches, the quad pack I only bought 1 but pulled 2 auto's so those are fun also.

The hobby finest packs say "not for individual sale" and have no upc.

The BV Walmart? I'll try to stop by there in the morning after the Boy Scout food drive pick up in Smithton. Leave one behind!

Can someone who finds one upload a picture of these so we know what to look for?

Going to be an expensive day tomorrow! I'll probably buy one or two in BV(if I can get there), in Greensburg, in Delmont, and probably in Irwin on the way to and from the gun show in Monroeville.

What does that have to do with anything? These are not being sold individually and first sale doctrine trumps that.

The one I opened did not have any hits.

Nothing really. But when you usually buy HOBBY packs they don't say
" not for individual sale" since hobby shops sell packs. Only packs that say that are retail packs from blasters.

My Walmart had about 20 of them. Finest, Prime, UD/Fleer Retro. Picked up one each of the Finest and Prime.

Only thing in Prime was a KaDeem Carey RC #100/350, Sankey Primed Rookies and J Huff RC

Finest was a little better - RC's of Bortles, Ebron and A Robinson. Earl Thomas #21/25 and a Patch Auto of McCarron #62/75

Shoot I tossed the packaging. The are hanger packages with 2 packs side-by-side. They have 2-pack and 4-pack versions. On another note, I pulled a Le'Veon bell card that is a little thicker than the other cards. It has a gold Steelers emblem also. Is this is a variation?
