It's all good though, after going 2/2 on bonuses, I would have been due to get a 20 blaster box.
That stinks. I was hoping they would have some left afterward. I wonder if we will see another one around the holidays?

I ran out of money before I could go back. Tomorrow is just for autographs/looking around the vintage area. It felt like selling/trading evaporated as the day went on. (I was going to drop another $250 on a MM if I had made a sale.)

Not complaining, just keeping track btw
I don't know the final lineup vs. the early plans, but I wouldn't assume there's just one of each biggie.

Bought and opened 4 megamix boxes this year. Hit some nice bonuses! For me, there were two bonuses out of 4 boxes.

Just opened mine. Was 6/10 for extras. A lot of decent blasters. Best extra was 2018/19 select hobby box.

Forgot to post my results as they were forgettable...

Picked up 2 at the national on Friday and went 0/2 on bonuses. Best blasters were a 2022/23 Bowman Basketball blaster in one box and a 2020 Playoff football in the other.

Was going to grab 2 more on Sunday as I had money left in my budget after not buying as many singles as I anticipated at the show, but there was a line wrapped around the BO booth that appeared to be longer than the number of boxes they had left so I didn't bother waiting.

Blaster selection was definitely weaker than the holiday version but really you can't complain when buying at this point. We all know what to expect and let's be honest, even the worst boxes have $250 in value in them (from a sealed blaster perspective, not necessarily hits).

Sorry for the late review on the MegaMixes. I purchased 24 MegaMixes and my only regret is not buying more. I really liked the mix of products and the average price point going in per box. There were low priced products mixed in of course, but always enough nicer things as well that each box still had great value, even if you didn't hit a big bonus. When you figure an average cost of $12.50/blaster and the cheapest new blaster at Target is around $25, what's not to like. We probably had 8 boxes that in included a bonus, but some of those would have 2 medium size bonuses instead of one larger one. So, in the pics below, you will see around 15 bonuses, but I included anything that was of special value compared to the others. A lot of the $50-$70/boxes came with 2 of them in a MegaMix. We also hit a monster bonus in one of ours that I don't think was even on the sell sheet. I let my son open up the boxes and categorize everything as we went and he had such a thrill finding the big bonus box. You'll see why.

Looking for Andre Dawson Serial numbered cards that are his jersey number - either #8 or #10. So looking for cards like 8/8 or 08/99 or 10/250.
