Pulled my first ever shield!
Knew since the first posts in the Panini's blog that Prime is going to be a loaded product this year and was thinking about getting a case of it! However, this morning saw some breaks online and the patches were good but players were semistars and cards were numbered like out of /50, so instead decided only to get a couple of boxes. And am glad I did!!! To buy cases I usually travel to East coast connection in Kingsland, NJ, but for individual boxes I do not bother and just go to the Chameleon Comics and Cards: their prices are not the lowest (well, they are located next to the Wall street) but the location is more convenient for me.
At Chameleon they only order like 1 case of every product and it sells out quickly (like for Rookie Anthology I came there at 6 on the release date and they already sold out, for Contenders came at 5 on the release date and opened the last 3 boxes), so I was a bit nervous when I made it to the store today like 5.15, but surprisingly they had the whole case of Prime untouched!!! Opened 3 boxes and hit my first ever shield (in the last box!!!):
Well, it is not MacKinnon (but I guess he is closer to MacKinnon than to Chet Pickard), there is some chipping on the top edge, and a little smudge at the top of the auto, but it is my first shield and it is a hard signed rookie shield of a Calder winner!!!
Other cards were good, but not mind-blowing:
Everything is available except the shield! Will keep it in the PC as my first every pulled shield!!!
