1996 Circa Box Break
I have had two of these for a while, never opened one before so what the hey. Searching for a rave parallel as they are 1:60 packs and numbered /150. I have never seen so many layers in opening a pack of cards. It is just like a loaf of Pepperidge farm bread and as Mitch Hedberg said, you open it once and it still ain’t open. You have to peel the cellophane off of the small cardboard box that houses the cards. You open that up and the cards still need to be taken out of a cello pack.
First pack I pull a Jeter and a Boss Maddux insert. Very cool pulling a player you collect. A few more packs and then pull a Tom Glavine Boss! A few packs later and then a Ryan Klesko Boss! I surely hit a Braves hot box! Rip a few more and would you believe it a John Smoltz Boss! These are inserted at 1:6, so in theory that should be it for the box as there are 24 packs total. Crazy thing is that I have only ripped 8 packs, so still 16 more to go.

Nice start for sure.
Don't keep us in suspense, keep on RIPPING!!
Most notably pulled another Jeter and a nice Ripken. Both of the Jeters have what looks to be a small bit of foil on the top left of the back of the cards which would make them doubtful for grading. Pulled a Griffey and ARod as well, but they both were at the top of the cello and had damage. Only one Access in the box, it’s best described as a tri-fold booklet and not even sure if PSA graded them. Did pull another Boss, but no Brave this time...complete opposite.

Thanks for the rip report and pixs.
Not eco-friendly in the least
I went full on @BALROG today with one of the misfits

Yes, used my 10/22 with iron sights from 20-25 yards away. Kept a pretty good grouping through my 25 round magazine. At one point I knocked it off the tree and had to reposition it, thus the damage in the upper left of the pic.
