Easy solution for the regular guy... just skip sonicfractor. Why pay secondary for what's almost guaranteed to be nonsense when you can wait and pay through the nose for good old reliable sapphire.

And all Topps had to do is sit on orders then ship slow poke Fedex because botters really like waiting to go to market.

...unless there's a joke going over my head about the meaning of common, yes, the silver packs all have either 2 or 3 base cards (to go with 0 or 1 inserts (or very very rarely one of the SP rookie refractors) and 1 refractor).

no, no joke. commons are what base cards of no "assigned value" are.

The question now is does Topps use the same J-Rod image for the Sonicfractor that it did for Logofractor?

I assume another image would make the Sonicfractor version more desirable than if they used the Logofractor image again.

My guess is that logofractor, sonicfractor, and hobby Lite mini-diamond JRods all use the same image (ie, different than the ESP)

They've used so many different photos that if they made them all from the same at bat, you could make a flip book out of them.

That’s a neat idea for an insert set. 9 cards of the same action but each a split second after each other.

Haha, that’d actually be awesome.

Or 9 different images for each inning of a given game.

Fits nicely into a 9-pocket too.
