2012 topps chrome - Page 25

MSD · 11-05-2012, 05:41 PM

Those retro chrome RCs look great. Still kicking myself for selling my case for under $1000, didn't think this would rise so much after all the crap Topps put out.

Foles red /25 is on ebay

It's in the box breaks section as well

I just got home from Target. They had TC. I bought 6 Blasters and 12 Rack Packs.

Let me just point out 2 things...

There seems to be 2 different blasters. My blasters didn't have the bonus relic in it. I will check Walmart tomorrow.

Between the Rack Packs and the "other" Blasters...I have to say the Blasters was a SOLID value. Out of the 6 blasters, I pulled 4 autos!!! Sure, they were all base autos of mid to low tier players, but 4 autos out of 6 blasters!!! That's pretty insane. Then factor in all of the color. Retail is LOADED. I'll have my breakdown in the box break section comparing my blasters vs the rack packs...look for it.

TOPPS CHROME IS GOING TO BE INSANE THIS YEAR!

4 autos out of 6 blasters......that's not necessarily good news for case breakers.

They were base autos if that changes anything.

That's great news for Case breakers, it means the blaster and racks have lower end autos instead of like last year.

Guess I was thinking along the lines if there's that many non-number autos in retail how many are going to be in hobby.

Low numbered autos are still 1:265 packs in retail. Not that easy to get.

Although the odds to get a base auto vs a parallel auto combined are almost identical, hopefully that carries over to Hobby.

Fair point, it's hard to say until we see some hobby breaks.

Any idea on what the rookie variations are? I checked online and unless I missed it, couldn't find what the difference was.

boffo13 · 11-06-2012, 03:19 PM

The code on the back is different. I pulled a Russell Wilson variation today.

I thought they were the same as regular topps.

Thanks boffo!!

Just got my tracking from blowout.

barbariansack · 11-06-2012, 05:11 PM

Is blowout sold out of chrome already? Just wondering still new to this site and see it doesn't have a add to cart like all the rest of the presell. Figured you would know cause you got tracking already I am assuming its for chrome I could be wrong lol

Yeah ik it sucks. They have been sold out for a while, they occasionally got some in stock. It would sell back out in a day.

ajscards101 · 11-06-2012, 08:23 PM

Probably going to wait til the weekend to get some rack packs/blasters. None of the Wal Marts/Targets around here had them in stock today so they hopefully will by Saturday.

cjsayde · 11-06-2012, 08:46 PM

I wonder how much that first RGIII auto is going to go for. It's at $200+ with 2 hours to go, not bad at all...

*edit* ended at $280 - his color is going to hit ridiculous numbers.

fyi, although they are sold out, that does not mean they won't get more. Pre-sell, everything is allocated. So BO can only get a hold of so much. Then they get a few more here and there...that's why it pops up and sells out again.

BUT

Usually at release, the allocation is not as limited and they will have tons, but at astronomical prices. Don't anticipate TC to drop in price. With all the news lately, it's only going to keep climbing. Even with a weaker draft class (which I don't totally agree with), 2012 may do better than 2011 due to the added content.

Well I didn't expect these :O
