2 sketches and  2 autos, thats pretty good for retail?

They weren't sketches sorry for listing it misleadingly, they are just the black cards with the artists pictures, and you are guaranteed 2 auto's in the collectors box but to get one numbered out of 25 was the tough part.

Thanks guys, I couldn't remember if this stuff had a guaranteed hit per blaster but I think it does as my luck wouldn't be that good.

Stated odds on those start at like 1:79 and up in odds from there for those Blasters.  So probably should have just bought a Hobby box for the money, but bought these one at a time so kinda impulse buying.

Same thing with me I went to buy hobby but my lcs already sold out,but out of 20 blasters in the course of a month 10 of them had auto's and 8 had relics so I was only skunked on 2 boxes which is great for retail.

Has potential of that, sure beats all the over hyped guys that come out and flop  laugh.gif as there is always some of that every year. One never knows what will happen 5+ years down the road (Favre, Warner etc... who you could have picked up their RCs for next to nothing when they came out...same as the guys who go from "Hot" and with high prices to not and drop like a lead balloon).  Kinda like the Bowman Blasters as a fun little break, though I should be boycotting it as it is "parallel to death" kind of product that I hate, as I feel there shouldn't be more than 2 or 3 parallel versions of a card, but that is just me maybe.
Nice stuff, thanks for sharing.

I agree with the too many parallel's I'd have been fine with just the ice parallel's but to do paper and then foil is just too much.I guess they figure that way there will be more value in each box.

As you can tell I'm hoping it is a sleeper class,as I've got the full set together of Bowman and some nice auto's out of it.I figure how many times does a class get hyped and is a dud see 2006,maybe this will be the opposite.

Nice finds,I love going thru bags of cards and boxes that I just put aside.The craziest thing I've ever found was a Mario Lemieux pinnacle gold plate coin,had no idea it was the rare parallel till I actually read gold plate on the coin.

Yes Steve a hobby box gets 4 auto's and 1 gu and my local cardshop was selling them for 130 plus tax before he sold out so 139.10 after taxes,my 5 blasters cost 107 after taxes so 32.10 less and I get to open 40 7 card packs instead of 10 25 card packs 280 cards to 250 I'll take the 30 extra cards.I pulled 3 gu and 2 auto's which was still 5 hits 2 relics more 2 auto's less plus I got a lot of parallel's I don't know if I have just been getting lucky but from what I see the blasters are loaded this year.

Pretty satisfied with the break,cheaper than my sold out lcs who was selling it at 130 plus tax,and 30 more base cards.No guarantees on hits but only slightly less than a hobby box would've yielded.

Nice hits.  Not sure what you paid per blaster, guessing $20 each, you pretty much almost bought a hobby box.  What is the retail configuration?  Hobby is 10 - 25 card packs with 4 autos and 1 gu per box.
*



The blasters are 8 7 card packs with no guarantees on anything,it's a crap shoot that's for sure but card wise there are 280 cards per 5 blasters,the only thing I got shorted on was 2 auto's and a bunch of mini's but the 2 low numbered parallel's and the bowman auto redemption made up for it.
