Hello 2012!

Well I finally broke down and busted some 2012 Topps Series 1. After the Road Warriors game tonight (Which they won 6-3!), I had to stop by Wal-Mart to get some late night groceries. After debating I went to the card isle. Completely disorganized but I did saw a box of 2012 Topps. I figured Pack Feelers probably already searched it over well. I was tempted to buy a Bowman Rack Pack but I decided against ti and went with 2 packs of the Topps! The lone PC Hit
I guess this is the 2012 version of the Diamond Giveaway!,Suck it pack searchers I'm going to win a Ichiro Gold 1/1...
Or just a digital Yankees Team logo coin... whatever that is? A couple of inserts
I also got one A golden Greats of Joe DiMaggio And the last card from pack 2 the Gem of the Break
That card made me happy. I know in the grand scheme this is probably a $0.50-$2.00 sell card if that. Baseball unlike Hockey where a lot of the Rookie Cards are actually worth some cash. The Young Guns of the hottest starts can reach $80-100 at their peak and even solid rookie can fetch $15.00-$20. That being said I guess it's just cool to me pulling one of the projected top rookies for this year. Also I collect rookies! My overall review of this product based on my two packs. Great Photography as usual. The Golden thing is a little gimmicky but it's not too bad. I love the simplicity yet highly collect-ability of this product! If anyone is doing the set and needs some of them let me know I'll see what I have and if you're interested in any of the cards above just comment and I'll put them in your pile!
