Full Version: 2015 Topps Series 1 jumbo
Collector Zone > TCC Features > Box Breaks
knuckleballerMC
Stopped by my lcs today because I was low on a few supplies and, after looking over the singles for quite a while, talked myself into a box instead. Topps jumbo was one of the few reasonably priced and in-stock boxes and the standard Topps series is one I grew up on, so I decided to give it a go.

It was 10 packs, 50 per pack. One auto and two memorabilia cards inside...

First off, what do you all think of this year's set? I can't decide. It's alright — it's one set where I love the base cards because I'm a stat geek — but the design doesn't seem to have anything that makes it stand out as "this year's" set.

Just posting the RCs, inserts, hits. If anyone is interested in base for a specific team/player lemme know.

Hits with photos are at the end...

Wasn't looking closely for SPs as I broke, but going to look through as I sort. I know I pulled one, at least (Madison Bumgarner).

Madison Bumgarner photo variation was the lone SP. Not bad though - goes for about $10 on average on the bay.

Thanks for sharing - now go back and look for the sparkle variations - case hits and worth $40-$60 for the top players.

All of the inserts are!

I'm going to stick the Trout pin on eBay, seems to be getting good value for what is a contrived relic.

The Miguel Cabrera jersey is available, though.
