That lower left corner is going to be a problem on these cards.

Fomr what I am seeing the retail is better than hobby. Wal-mart is the only boxes you can get the book cards. I bought 3 boxes hit 3 more Ronda's and 3 decent autos. Plus the retail cards did not have that corner issue that seems to be common in the hobby

For the hobby side this ended up being a garbage product. It was nothing but a Topps sticker dump. Topps added Rousey autos and just called it a day, no dual or triple autos, very few kiss cards and booklets. I watched 3 cases opened at my LCS and every one had one auto, one numbered card and either a shirt relic or championship belt. It would be a decent product at $35-$40 but there is no value opening it at $70 a box.

I wish I could find more blasters to open as the 1 I did find and open the cards were at least not dinged up. Of the 6 boxes in my hobby case I've opened so far almost all the base card corners on every card have at least one bad front and one bad back corner. Totally lame.

I am confused though on one thing. Every place I read said that blue was a hobby exclusive. But I was just reading the odds on the Blaster Box I posted and there are blue odds listed on the blaster.

BLUE odds listed: Women's Champion Set, Royal Rumble Set, Shirt Relic, Mat Relic, and the manufactured Commemorative (Belt) Cards.

If you can get all those in Blue in Walmart Blasters what is Hobby Exclusive just the base set and autos in Blue? For the price the blasters seem like the way to go... if you can find them!

The corner issue is what got me about the case, seemed like 75% of the cards had that corner ding. Then some including the AweksaMixed Match /50 were heavily damaged coming out of the box.

Funny everyone is having corner problems, I opened 5 boxes and pulled 6 Rousey RCs. I'd say 3 have a shot at a BGS 9.5 at least!

Blue autos are hobby exclusive. Not the inserts.

Makes sense, I guess the confusing one was the Blue Royal Rumble set since that wasn’t a blaster exclusive.

Isn’t it a little odd that it has been a week now and only a handful of blue /25 Rousey auto’s have surfaced? No Gold. No black. Not even a lower numbered auto... Haven’t even seen anything other than a few blue base cards either

Not when box and case prices have risen like they have. Not near as much being broke at $75ish per box. I wouldn't even consider touching this product at that price.

Retail looks to be the way to go on this product.

100% agree. It's the route I took and have been very pleased.

Just bought the nephew a blaster, absolute blast opening it. Nothing valuable, but no duplicates and he loved that every pack had a mix of inserts and included Mae young. Def a fun break for him.

Holy hell, what idiot just payed over $205 for the Ronda spot in the case break that just ended on eBay? WOW... should just buy lotto tickets. Based on the prices people paid for the individual wrestler spots and being that there are only 12 “REAL” hits (autos) this just seemed crazy. I mean sure I bought the Becky spot but damn. Not like this is Undisputed and there’s a hit per pack. Guess I’m just shocked.

I frequent the retail store of that other big seller in Buffalo, NY, and have looked at few different WalMarts and Targets now, and no one has had this stuff. I'm baffled

Wow, finally just watched the case break. Not a single Ronda anything... bye bye to whoever dropped $205.50 for her spot in the break. Lowest two autos in the case a plate of Naomi and a blue of... Becky Lynch (yeah buddy). Everything else numbered to 75 or higher.

Gonna rant a little...

I just don't get why people are spending $400+ for these Rousey auto's. My guess is that Topps had a few sticker auto's left over from her UFC days and used those for her Women's Division autographs, which is why this is her first autograph release. So basically people are paying $300+ for a picture of Rousey from Wrestlemania because you can get a Rousey sticker auto for $100. Don't get it at all.

They're her first WWE auto, wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't have an on-card until Transcedent if they do actually make it

My local WalMart finally got these in. Bought 2, collation was horrid. Bought 2 more, even worse.. still not a full base set, but a mound of doubles, triples, etc.. Feels like their Walking Dead blasters all over again. Hits were decent enough. The corner issue mentioned by others was pretty prevalent in my stuff too, but not everything suffered.. including my 1 Rousey RC out of the 4 boxes, which would actually grade, minimum, 9.5.
