Hey guys, it's that time of the year where I get tempted by some of Blowout and DA's Black Friday etc deals and buy some crap. Mostly retail stuff this year, record for hockey. There were a few things that intrigued me at first and a few things pretty cheap and affordable but here's what I ended up ordering. Hockey - 2010/11 Victory Blaster - 11 packs/6 cards per Hockey - 2009/10 Victory (Swedish Edition) Retail Box (I'm a sucker for international editions!) - 24 packs/6 cards per Football - 2011 College Football Legends Hobby Box - 20 packs/5 cards per. 3 autos per box. Football - 2008 Upper Deck Blister Box - 20 packs/18 cards per. No stats on hits but so far I've seen at least 2. Hockey - 2012/13 Upper Deck Series 1 Blaster - 12 packs/5 cards per Hockey - 2012/13 O-Pee-Chee Blaster - 14 packs/8 cards per Basketball - 2008/09 Upper Deck Lineage Retail Box - 24 packs/6 cards per Baseball - 2012 Bowman Chrome Blaster - 8 packs/3 cards per Football - 2012 Panini Gridiron Blaster - 8 packs/10 cards per. Maybe a hit? Hockey - 2002/03 O-Pee-Chee Blaster - 9 packs/9 cards per. 1 5x7 card per box Basketball - (2) 2012/13 Panini Hoops Value Pack - 44 cards per Hockey - 2009/10 Upper Deck Ice Trap Pack - 2 packs/5 cards per Football - 2011 Panini Prestige Value Pack - 40 cards per Hockey - 2011/12 Upper Deck Black Diamond Blister Pack - 3 packs/5 cards per I was pretty close to trying out 2011/12 Panini Rookie Anthology Hockey but decided to go with the College Football Legends. I will open some of all this before Christmas. I have been working on the 2008 Upper Deck Football. Will get that up soon. Good luck to whatever you guys may be breaking as well!

Hey guys, hope you all had a great Christmas! Next break:
2010/11 Victory Hockey Blaster
11 packs and 6 cards per. Rookie or insert in every pack.
Rookies
Grant Clitsome, Jamie McBain, Justin Mercier, Alex Plante, Casey Wellman
Inserts

Cammalleri, Iginla, Mikko Koivu

Let me also note that I love the look of these cards. Pretty simplistic design (mainly the colored transparent V drawing attention out of the black/white tone) but I really really dig them. Anyway, maybe I'll go ahead with another break later tonight.

Hoped to maybe complete my set but still 26 short of the set. At least I got some SE's, appears those don't appear in hobby boxes. Most of my inserts were doubles from my other break. For the next break to come, hmmm we'll see...maybe the baseball, maybe the football blaster, maybe a hockey I don't know...
