I saw a listing of a massive 70 blaster box break listed on ebay so I decided this would be a good allotment of packs to takes notes on and see how often the parallels and inserts make an appearance. Each pack has 1 parallel/insert in it. I did see that autographs and patch cards are in replacement of a base card - so those packs technically have two non-base cards.
I wasn't perfect in counting, but here's the summary of my notes:
70 Blaster Boxes / 770 Packs:
Slam Inserts:
Base: 75 packs -- Holo: 3 (!!!)
Anniversary Parallel: 10 packs
Autographs: 3 packs
(Kent Benson, Mario Chalmers, Cameron Thomas (RC))
Red /75: 4 packs
Blue: 193 packs
Purple: 72 packs
Pure Players: 32 packs -- Holo: 3 packs
Sky View: 103 packs -- Holo: 3 packs
Lights Camera Action: 116 packs -- Holo: 6 packs
Frequent Fliers: 60 packs -- Holo: 6 packs
Arriving Now: 41 packs -- Holo: 6 packs
Class of 2021: 34 packs -- Holo: 6 packs
Rise n Shine Memorabilia: 22 packs
Rookie Remembrance: 8 packs
I was mostly interesting in see how "rare" the Anniversary parallel was, and how many Holo SLAM's got pulled. I cannot believe they only pulled 3 holo SLAM's - that's pretty nuts out of 770 packs!! Just wanted to share for anyone interested in blasters. Bottom line is that the good cards are damn hard to pull out of blasters, 100%.
