pretty big difference bw the 2 also, but maybe I'm wrong

Pretty sure they're not the Base Card Super Short Prints because we've seen parallels and none are listed for those.

12 lite box break. No ESPs. 2 autos, and several colored parallels but nothing too spectacular from what I saw:

O’Neil Cruz Superfractor pulled from a regular pack from the Logofractor boxes... around the 30 minute mark..

I guess not all reg chrome packs are hitless...

They are just Image Variations. They have the same parallels. SSPs don’t have parallels.

Opened 2 boxes of Chrome Lite.

1st box had 4 Black and White Mini Diamonds parallels
2nd box had NINETEEN Black and White Mini Diamonds parallels

That was a heck of a 10 box break

If this is a stupid post just discount but I heard from someone who received their lite boxes that topps included some sort of notice about the silver packs. Can anyone elaborate on this?

It is just a notice directing the buyer to the information on the silver packs and that the lite boxes already have the ESP's packed out in the boxes. I think it is to let the buyers know not to expect silver packs with the lite purchases.

This is exactly right. People just can’t read the damn paper that Topps puts in the boxes. Idiots………

So true! It's why the founding fathers didn't actually want any of the common folk to vote.

As for the hobby idiots: every once in a while I head on over to the Blowout MegaMix box thread, and just sort of stare at my screen and let the stupidity wash over me. I'm not saying I'm a genius, but it is comforting for me to know I was not born a complete moron like the buyers in that thread.

Got an awesome BO hoodie from my one megamix box. Every time I wear it to the LCS it makes all the flippers and logobois so jealous.

I feel a mix of sadness and "what were you thinking buying this?" type vibes when I read that thread.

Buying before the National is one thing. Silly purchase no doubt. Buying it afterward days/weeks/months after release I don't know what to say.

People are still buying this product?

Have you SEEN the silver pack hits? 1 in a million shot at a thousands-of-dollars auto from years past. Keeps them wanting more!

No extended base SPs in Lite?

Its easier to figure out WAR on my 1985 watch calculator than it is to figure out where and what '22 products have Witt & JRod cards.

Calm yourself down.

Ripped 5 lites. Two cards of note, BW mini Diamond O’Neil Cruz and a Wander Dugout Photo Var Green Speckle. The ESP are tough, but I shot my shot with no regrets. So that will wrap Chrome 22: 6 Blasters + 5 Logofractor Megas + 5 Lites… round it to $1,000 budgeted for my hobby. Cheaper than therapy.
