Kids just opened our annual jumbo box. Not good. Orelvis Martinez auto. Arenado and Vlad bat relic. One numbered gold of nobody and zero other numbered/parallels/rare inserts. I kept telling them that there's usually at least one rare card in a jumbo and we got to the last pack and turd-burger. Only nice card was a Dylan Crews rainbow foil that we got in the first pack so we started optimistic. No other interesting sand glitter or rainbow parallels. Nothing in the silver packs either unless you like rookie pitchers and Don Mattingly, Ryne Sandberg, and Steven Kwan. My excitement for opening more just went waaaaayyy down.

Not saying Topps/Fanatics won't survive, they just won't be getting my money if a bunch of these guys I mentioned aren't in there. Then we'll see how the April and May call ups go for the Update class of RC's.

The amount of complaining about this product is comical.

You're not going to hit a life-changing card out of Series 1.

Look at the print runs. It's watered down. You're lucky if you get 1 numbered card per box.

Looks like they only used All Star Game jerseys for all of the In The Name relics this year.

Two hangers, ended up with a Pink 1990 Yamamoto and a red foil /5 Jake McCarthy. Given what I've seen on here, beats most hobby boxes.

I opened one hobby box, and pulled a Bobby Witt Jr Golden Mirror and an 89 on-card auto Brady Basso in the same pack. It’s funny when they load up everything in one pack. I did get a green /99 Yamamoto in the silver pack, too, so pretty good box. My hangers and blasters were terrible.

I feel like when I first started buying cases in 2017 & 2018, you'd get a gold or rainbow foil in every back. Now it seems like every box.

How many sets are people getting out of their cases? I'm slowly working through my jumbo. Through the first 200 cards I'm on pace for only 3 complete sets. Getting some big differences in card amounts. 14 of one and 3 of another.

Starting to sort mine tomorrow from a Jumbo case. Will let you know. Again I say that I absolutely love the design of these cards!

I’m very glad I made the decision to not buy any flagship this year. Don’t like the design and overall it is just not appealing in any way to me.
