I know this isn't S2 related, but I recently ripped a case of hobbies for the Panini UConn NIL college set, and among base cards, I received betweeen 12-19 copies of each base card, and 6-11 copies of the insert base cards. I was actually pleasantly surprised the distribution was pretty even for the most part. But getting 1 Snell and 20 Sotos is ridiculous!

No they don't.....because suckers are buying up everything they release anyway.

No for-profit corporation is going to spend money improving their products unless their customers force them to by refusing to buy their current crappy products.

I just opened a Jumbo and 3 blasters. I'm guessing I shouldn't waste my time trying to put a set together off that.

I still think they are doing this on purpose. Forces people to buy more to fill in those holes. Also, fewer sets on ebay keeps the prices higher on those who do complete them (at least temporarily).

Drake Baldwin made his debut this season, didn't he?

Series 2 doesn't have rookies who debuted the current year. They all debuted the previous season. Those who debuted in 2025 before the cutoff will be in Update.

Unacceptable. Glad I only ordered a single hobby and mega. I like completing sets, but it's not worth opening a bunch of product to do that if you can't even do better than 1 base set in an entire case. Much cheaper to open a few things for fun and then trade for the rest.

They all have the "call up" designation on their Topps Now cards, so, no chance of being in 2025 Update.

Whatever it is, it tricked at least two people into over spending on a base vet card so far

I've got that same collation. Halfway through a case, and missing 10 cards. No Zulueta, Rocker, Javier, Hicks, Peralta, McKinstry, McLain, Collins, Torres, Snell.

I've only opened 1 box of my jumbo case, but I'm pretty sure it's downhill from here lol. Been awhile since I've had pulls this solid. Had an orange as well not pictured.

Seems like you did pretty well, at least on the autos.

I ripped 3 jumbo cases and hit ZERO silver pack autos and only 4 numbered silver pack cards at all (Rooker /150, Chipper /199, Ichiro /150 & Yordan /99). Easily the worst silver packs I've ever opened. Collation for silver packs was abysmal as well as I hit 4 or 5 of several cards and 0 of many.

I had 1 box that was missing an auto.

Best hits:

Golden Mirror (1 - Jackson Chourio)
Team Border (1 - Kyle Stowers)
True Photo (2 - Pavin Smith & Shane McLanahan)
Plakata (1 - Shohei Ohtani but dinged corner unfortunately)

Wood /25 (3 - Adley Rutschman, George Kirby & Angel Chivilli)
Canvas /50 (1 - Texas Rangers Team)
Black /74 (7 - Corbin Carroll, Aaron Nola, Cal Raleigh, Cubs Team, Phillies Team, Frankie Montas, & Combo Card of Elly & CJ Abrams)
Vintage Stock /99 (1 - Max Scherzer)

Orange Foil /25 (1 - Walter Pennington)
Gold Foil /50 - (1 - Max Scherzer)

Rounding the Bases Relic (1 - Bryce Harper)
Orange Relics /25 (2 - Anthony Rizzo & Vlad Jr.)
Gold Relics /50 (3 - Jacob Wilson, Bobby Witt Jr. & Kyle Schwarber)

1990 Autos (9 - Griffin Conine, Scott Rolen, Spencer Schwellenbach, Dillon Dingler, Cade Povich, Joey Ortiz, William Contreras & Ryan Bliss (x2))

1990 Autos /10 (2 - Kirk Gibson & Alex Rodriguez)

Baseball Stars Autos (3 - Griffin Conine, Bryce Teodosio & Jack Neely)

Baseball Stars Autos /150 (1 - Jairo Iriarte)

Baseball Stars Autos /50 (1 - Valente Bellozo)

Baseball Stars Autos /10 (1 - Javier Assad)

I have completely given up on opening any Series 1 or Series 2. Have yet to touch any this year. I’ll just buy singles of what I want and be done with it.
