Ordered two yesterday, Target said they'd get here Friday, tracking says Monday, and leave for vacation on Saturday. Guess they'll have to wait til I get back.

I don't think so, IMO.....there is not 'first' card of anyone of significance in them...even the 2015 Chrome update Mega boxes with Lindor, Gallo, Bryant and Correa didn't hold much value and they were only 2 chrome packs per box.

Correct, these aren't as great as some might want you to believe. Yet Target is raking it in every time they reload.

Went to 4 targets during lunch today. 1st one nothing, 2nd one nothing, 3rd one 12 boxes, last one 7 boxes. Grabbed them all for $16.99 a piece (used my target red card for the extra 5%). Should be a fun weekend. I'll try and post what I pull.

I've managed to find 28 of these at 4 different targets in my area in the last week...well actually 30 but I left 1 at each of the last two targets because of suspicious wrapping...I've opened all but 2 which I will open later tonight...the results have been very very average IMO. Here they are:

17x Judge RC Debut/ASG
16x Bellinger RC/ASG/RC Debut

7x Base Refractors /250 (Mancini RC Debut only somewhat notable one)
4x Base X-Fractor /99

Reynaldo Lopez RC Base Auto
Brett Philips Base RC Auto
Jean Segura Base Auto
Sean Newcomb X-Fractor Auto /99
Dinelson Lamet Gold Auto /50

Ian Happ Gold Auto /50

Out of the 26 boxes, 17 yielded a parallel or Auto...According to the odds I've done well to hit 6 autos out of 26 boxes, but other than the Happ they haven't been of the right guys

Still haven't seen any of these at my Targets. I did see Panini Prizm FB for the first time though but I have a feeling that has been out for a while now.

Bought two off the target website at 17.99 per w/ free shipping on Sunday. They showed up today. Pulled a few judge, moncada and benintendi base RCS, Brett Phillips and Strasburg refractors /250, a handful of the better names out of the rookie cup set (jeter, Correa, ichiro and Seaver) a Cameron maybin plate and a Jacob Faria xfractor Auto /99. Wouldn’t say I got my money back but I like Faria as a prospect so I’ll hang onto that one. . Plus the Seaver is nice looking so it’ll get tossed in my Mets PC.

Not terrible. Not great. I’ll probably hold at 2 unless I come across a box at my local target, which is unlikely.

Judge RD

Box 2
Judge refractor /250
Belllinger RC
Moncada RD
Two more boxes came in the mail yesterday:

Box 1
Benintendi gold refractor /50
Belllinger RD
Judge RD

Box 2
Blackmon xfractor /99
Belllinger RD
Judge RD

No auto love in 4 boxes. Probably about average based on what I'm seeing on this thread.

I bought 2 online and picked up 2 more on Wednesday at Target. Pulled a few Judges, Mancinis and Bellingers and /50 Magnesius Sierra & /50 Chapman. no autos. hopefully ill get one when my online order arrives. I did though learn that Wednesday at 1:30-2 was the perfect time to hit Target. The supplier was restocking and must have put out at least 15 Boxes. I went back earlier today to pick up some flea medicine for my pooch and the section was completely ransacked aside from crappy NFL boxes that no one seems to buy.

Should be easier. Base autos are 1:56 but that doesn't take into account the xfractor gold red and supers. About 1:5 I'd think based on busting 60 of these already lol

I've actually pulled 16 autos out of 60 boxes but based on what I've seen 1:4.5 to 1:5 boxes seems about right

I think Houdini is cracking 100 boxes today, so should be fun to see the results.

Just broke 9 more, still 20 total cards short of a full set with the Rookie Cup interests. Results are in the break section, nothing earth shattering.

Passed on a bunch, regretted it, read here, had less regret but bought one later just for fun. I imagine Saturday will be clean-out if these with sale price and possible toy discount.
