The official 2010 Topps Heritage thread: rip, sort, trade

Josephcb09

I too am a huge Phillies fan.

More hardcore than Geordie.

I probably love the Phils as much as Walt loves the Mets.

Sell it to me.

HeritageAddict

Wow I didn't realize you guys were such big Phillies fans, maybe one day SF and LA will get real major league teams instead of the Texas League teams they have now.

Josephcb09

Whoa, Doran

HeritageAddict

Sorry, maybe I did step over the line with that one.

Josephcb09

I don't know what I am more offended by.....

Being called a Texas League club or being lumped in with Los Angeles.

I do know.

Sorry Geordie but being included with LA is way worse.

HeritageAddict

Now that's funny Joe!

Good thing you realized that, Doran. You were about to get a mass mailing of Cubs junk wax, postage due.

Box #6:

More of the same, no ink. After 6 boxes I have a Chris Carpenter chrome, chrome refractor and black chrome refractor.
Pulled my 4th dice card, this time of Ian Kinsler. Based on the odds that should be my last one for the case, not sure if everyone found these cards more plentiful than the odds.
The relic card was a Flashback Tiger Stadium seat relic featuring Al Kaline, a change of pace from the standard Clubhouse Collection. I like the card.

The quest for an autograph continues tomorrow. -Mark

I love the cards and could use all three Carpenter cards.

Today I received the base set I bought off Ebay. These cards are very bright and crisp in person. I'm dissapointed 2008 and 2009 photos weren't this clear, because I loved the design for those two years. These are nice cards though. Very happy with the set.

alma1960

Walt,
I'm going to put together a chrome and a refractor set, but the black chrome has your name on it. Let me finish busting the case, organize my want list, and we can put together a trade. -Mark

Thanks Mark, I appreciate that, actually I was just kidding, Doran is the big Cards fan, so give him first crack. Im sure we can trade this year, let me know when you
have your numbers ready.

From what the wrapper said that was posted earlier yes the stamps will be falling in retail packs also.

parkerj

Nice Job mark, the seat relics are far tougher pulls than most people realize and far better than most of the clubhouse collections. I can use the kinsler dice if its for trade. Wow, those are some nice pulls guys, love the howard black, thats a nice one to see. Walt is salivating i am sure!

I'm closing in on the refractor set - down to just 2 now. anyone to the rescue?

I just wanted to add this here....

If anyone is selling any team sets w/SP's I would be interested in 1 set of Indians with the Masterson SP. (15 cards I think). Someone on ebay is selling for 11.00 with shipping.

I'd prefer to buy from someone here. I would also like 1 CC Sabathia Card and 1 Arod.

Shoot me a PM if you can help.

HeritageAddict

Is anyone working on the ad panel sets this year?

bjbrall4

I just won a set of 68 panels, which I should have by the end of the week. I also have a dozen coming from parkerj. I hope to put the set together, assuming there are again 88 total. I'll also try to post a complete or partial checklist.

jmoran19

Went to Super Target for groceries and the little old lady was hanging these up, 5 cards and the gum in the top section, 9 cards in the bottom section. $4.99 per rak and yes you can make out the cards on top and bottom although you can only see the middle of the card behind the gold. Yes I know it's wrong but I picked up all the ones with SP's showing on the back

kmnorton

Nice to see that Topps (and others) take under 1 second to think about packaging. Not bashing anybody, it's just such a different game these days than before where now there could be some truly unique and pricey cards uncovered by a few moments of poking.

Once again, nothing personal, moran. I use to scour the hanging rack packs in the 70's (at 7-11) looking for cards I needed.

parkerj

how about a scan of a retail pack odds?

jmoran19

<< <i>how about a scan of a retail pack odds? >>



How's this, only did a quick review but they look like half of a normal pack for sp, TN, BF and NF. No Maris, Ruth or Mantle HR chase though

nam812

I'm too lazy to go back and read. Has anyone mention the fact that Card #29 has Reid Gorecki as a Yankee, but in his chrome cards (#C10) he is a Brave?

Walt

Thanks for the scans!

My comments on those odds:

Slightly better than hobby for almost twice the price.
By these odds there are 580,000 hobby packs
If that is right, then there should be 780,000 retail packs.
I figured this out using the 6100 total black refractors and those pull odds
Of course regular retail packs will have different odds
So not only do certain retail boxes not have the Maris and Mantle gear, but these rack packs don't either. This is making 24 count retail boxes that come from
target and walmart look even better.
Can you get those off the secondary market cheap?

Hey there, just joined today and looking forward to the Heritage stuff. No luck finding any product retail side here in FL yet. Just spent the last hour reading over all the posts from this thread. Good stuff guys.

Just got back from Target and found these in a box. There were only 5 of them so I bought them all.

jmmiller777

Box 9 finally delivered:




Going to play racquetball now. Should I open the other boxes in the case? Will there be any more autos? Should I instead open the other two boxes from another case? These are all questions I gotta answer!

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this, but this is where the THeritage action is!

im looking for one gradeable copy of base cards of Pujols. his regular card, and and subsets hes included in,
for example the League Leader cards.

Thank You Very Much,
Eric

Josephcb09

Hey guys I just finished opening a 16 box blaster case.

pulls:

42 sps - no variations
5 cc relics - all commons
3 chrome ref
5 chrome base
1 dice game back - Utley
1 stamp - Richardson/Pelfrey

Overall not too bad for what ended up being the price of about 3 hobby boxes

jmmiller777

Wow Joe, good amount of SP's there. That may be the way to go in the future. II pulled ink out of the 05-06 blasters, not sure which year. So it is possible, slim but possible.

Josephcb09

John,

I think it is a good route to go if you are looking to make a master set and aren't so worried about pulling an autograph. At the rate autographs are falling in hobby, I wouldn't worry about it anyway.

It wouldn't surprise me. The Vlad Guerrero is this way as well. Base/Dice Listed as a Ranger, chrome listed as an Angel.

Box 4 of 6:




Box 5 of 6:




My first five years of opening Heritage (2005-2009; I opened at least 8-9 hobby boxes/year) I never hit one black refractor. I pulled my first one from last year's high-numbers (out of 3 boxes) and this year I've now hit 3 in 5 boxes! Go figure...

My 3 hobby boxes cost about $60 each or $180. Not sure what this blaster case cost but I'm guessing around $200.

In any of my 3 hobby boxes I would have averaged:
24 sps - no variations (-18)
3 cc relics (-2)
5 chrome ref (+2)
15 chrome base (+10)
1 dice game back (same)
? stamp -

If you are looking to focus on just collecting a master base set, looks like the blasters are the route to take.

Just curious if you pulled any Mantle or Maris chase cards from your blasters.

Josephcb09

No Mantle or Ruth chase cards.

These blaster cases aren't Wal Mart or Target specific, I guess.

HeritageAddict

I think Mike said he had a case coming in today, you better start ripping soon and I don't want to hear any of this I think I'll only open three boxes tonight crap.....no breaks, no dinner, no tv until the entire case is ripped!

zep33

<< <i>I think Mike said he had a case coming in today, you better start ripping soon and I don't want to hear any of this I think I'll only open three boxes tonight crap.....no breaks, no dinner, no tv until the entire case is ripped! >>



LMAO

just about to dig in - box 1 coming soon

zep33

Dud 1:

My 3rd Kendry Morales jersey

normal SP, insert spread

oh well, maybe next one

HeritageAddict

Don't worry Mike, 11 more to go and you know the last box will contain the big hit.

zep33

Certainly didn't come in in this box

dud #2

Lance Berkeman jersey

8 SPs - 6 of them were the same as first box
5 chrome
2 ref - Victorino and Uggla - one of them is probably my case hit


and on to the next....

zep33

Box 3 a little better

Another Jimmy Piersall seat relic
Matt Kemp black ref
6 chrome
1 ref - Posada

1 more before dinner

Josephcb09

Doran,

Blaster case was mailed out this afternoon

zep33

since I can't fit any more wrappers in my trash can, maybe all these crappy cards can weigh them down to fit more

Donner Navarro jersey


Arod refractor

through 4 boxes, I got one card I needed.

3rd Kemp black that's been pulled here - first Nick, then Chris (knopfler), and now Mike. One will reside in At-water someday, most likely Nick's since he pulled the first one - it was barely out of the pack and he had a PM in his inbox!

sheesh - had to back up and edit - looks like the town I live in has a forbidden word in it.
