Felt like opening something, and I cant possibly open anymore Topps series 1 or Topps Heritage (Topps series 2 has no appeal to me), so I grabbed this fine looking specimen. I know this isn't the same as the hidden treasure boxes, but this in honor of a recent thread about the hidden treasure boxes and smashing the odds. If you're watching ORANGE, this one is for you because......oh yes, it will be a LIVE BOX BREAK. pictures to follow as they come.

    I love those things. I get the football ones each trip to Target of KMart. Maybe one a month. I just want to get some Packer Cards. I have scored large on these. I bet I have purchase 20-25 of them. I got a Jersey Patch of Jerry Rice on the 49ers #'s out of 100. Ricky Williams Rookie #'d out of 99 as my two biggest pulls. The extra surprises have been the best. Full sized doll (action figure for men) of Urlacher and another of, yup you guessed it, FAVRE. Made my day on that one. I got a Fleer focus Donald Driver rookie and a few autos of useless players.

    Enjoy the break.

    Lastly, I did get a 1992 Proset football pack with Mike Holmgren for my Packer HOF rookie set too.

    Don't forget the razer blade to open the packs. They are glued down.
  • TZAHLTZAHL Posts: 649 ✭✭
    Better yet....maybe you can pull that hot 1990 Upper Deck RC of Kevin Maas......that guy is going to be a stud!

    Or the super rare 1990 Upper Deck "non-overprinted" griffey card.
  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    The 10 packs inside this treasure trove are: 1987 Topps, 1989 Topps, 1990 Fleer, 1990 Upper Deck, 1991 Donruss, 1991 Score, 1991 Upper Deck, 1992 Ultra, 1998 Score X 2, 2006 Fleer, and 2006 Ultra.

    I will start with the two 1998 Score packs and work towards the obvious crescendo of the 1987 Topps. Stay tuned!!
  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Thats actually 12, but the box says 10 packs, so im guessing the two 1998 score packs that were just in clear sealed cellophane were not "packs". Gary, any clarification on that?

    Not counting the 2006 packs, I already own those other packs. Of course, it won't do me much good to open them cuz I already own the sets.

    '91 Donruss? Hope you pull a...ummm...

    Never mind...
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Im speechless. I now own a half naked Rickey Henderson card and a SWEET black bordered Frank Thomas 2nd year card. How many of you can say that?

    Now for 1990 Fleer and 1990 Upper Deck. Maybe a Mo Vaughn rookie? Maybe a David Justice rookie? Who knows.....
  • CDsNutsCDsNuts Posts: 10,092 ✭
    Nothing like trying to appeal to boys by making cards of men with their clothes off. Well done Score.

  • lickablebeanlickablebean Posts: 373
    Is that Billy Hatcher?
  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    By the way, whats up with 1990 and 1991 Upper Deck cards being in the pack backwards and forwards and upside down? There's nothing better than having to straighten all the cards out as you're sifting through them?
  • lickablebeanlickablebean Posts: 373
    I don't know but if that Fleer Sticker were cut better I would have PMed an offer
  • onlyanumberonlyanumber Posts: 2,433
    Is that Dodgers sticker diamond cut?

    Still a great action shot immortalized in sticker form!

    Now for the 2006 Fleer and 2006 Ultra. It's getting hard for me to keep my hands off the 1987 Topps pack.

    The 2006's weren't too bad. LOL

  • gotsparks09gotsparks09 Posts: 957
    As a kid, getting those Upper Deck team holograms were so much cooler than the cards. Oh, and 1992 Ultra was one of the best looking modern sets of all time. Easily in my top two or three.
    image
  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I will do the 1987 and 1989 Topps seperately for the sake of good old fashioned drama. 1989 first.
  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    YES......BO KNOWS.....

  • nam812nam812 Posts: 10,587 ✭✭✭✭✭
    And now what you've all been waiting for. What you've all been checking the thread almost at a delerious pace for. The one, the only, the 1987 Topps wax pack.
  • EstilEstil Posts: 7,131 ✭✭✭✭
    Good going on pulling that Ultra insert. I also agree the 1992 Ultra set is one of the most beautiful sets ever made (I currently own both the regular set and ALL insert sets). And 1987 (and 1989) Topps are a couple of my personal favorites too; good luck with those! image

    Say, does the 2006 Ultra still include BOTH a Gold Medallion card and insert card in each pack? That's how they used to do it in the mid-late 90s (and in 1995 and 1996 the Gold Medallion card could also be an insert card).

    zep - I would PM you but it's not on.

    While it may be funny to some, if I recall correctly, others were seriously offended by that pic.

    Perhaps removing it will prevent an uproar and this thread won't get hijacked.

    That is incredible Nam!

    I don't think I have ever seen that in my entire life , all the same cards in a pack .

    That is too damn funny .
    The first one and the last one look the best out of them all .

    Holy Cow Zep !
    Where did you find that one ??
    What year is that ?
    Was that his rookie card ??

    You're right, I didn't see that. I was so overcome in seeing a 87 Topps pack, as well as the shiny sh1t cards that I got too excited. The best I can do is to throw in a 1988 Donruss set (I bet Estil has one of those!!!!!) but I would be very relunctant to do so unless I can be assured that each of your treasured cards will be in a screwdown holder and packed in kasmir goat down.
