2007 Topps Draft Picks & Prospects Retail (Bonus) Box break - Round 2!

[heroesandhobbyz]

Hello, again!

I was a bit bored today and thought I would try another "affordable" retail box. Since I had pretty good luck with my initial box (a AU/RC and a few other low $ cards with a BV of 2-3x the purchase price), I decided to give TDPP another round. Will lightning strike twice, or will this box bite the big Ryan Leaf RC!?!

Stay tuned...

I won't detail box / product specifics - for that, please see my initial (round 1) box break...

Good luck w/retail, hope you have better luck than I always do!!

[heroesandhobbyz]

Thanks OnePimpTiger! I honestly don't think I will buy another Hobby box anytime soon. Instead, I will save up for a case! I have not done too well in the past regarding Hobby box buys - across the board - Baseball, Basketball (not purchased in years), Football and Hockey (pulled a Sidney Crosby GU, but nothing else). Anyhow, pack three...

[heroesandhobbyz]

YES! YES! YES! I'm pumped now...

Pack 3:
Saints - Brees, Drew
Rams - Jackson, Steven
Giants - Manning, Eli
Black parallel - How 'Bout Them Cowboys! - Barber, Marion - NFT
Rookie - Bush, Reggie (USC/Saints)

[heroesandhobbyz]

Sorry, but I love that Barber card - I just hope that like last box, he is not the ONLY 'Boys card I pull...

Pack 4:
Cardinals - Boldin, Anquan
Patriots - Jackson, Chad
Eagles - Baskett, Hank
Black parallel - Miller Zach (Arizona State/Steelers?)
Rookie - Cutler, Jay (Vanderbilt/Broncos)

Great... now watch me pull a 'Deadskins AU or GU! :o(

[heroesandhobbyz]

Pack 5:
Jets - Smith, Brad
Bears - Benson, Cedric
Ravens - Clayton, Mark
Black parallel - Raiders (uh, Patriots!) Moss, Randy
Draft Pick - Hughes, Daymeion (University of California)

[heroesandhobbyz]

Well, I got a bunch of DPs in this pack... running out of product... not looking too good for a "big bang" from this box.

Pack 6:
Bengals - Henry, Chris
Draft Pick - Willis, Patrick (University of Mississippi)
Draft Pick - Posluszny, Paul (Penn State)
Black parallel - Draft Pick - Meriweather, Brandon (the U)

Wish me some luck...

[heroesandhobbyz]

Well, I got another GATOR! No Cowboys, and a stinkin'...

Pack 7:
Saints - Colston, Marques
Bears - Hester, Devin
Redskins - Cooley, Chris - BOO! Still, I got to admit that Chris' is pretty darn good - definately toasted my 'Boys a few years back!
Black parallel - Rams - Bulger, Marc
Draft Pick - Leak, Chris (Go Gators!) - NFT

One pack left... Not looking good for an AU, but you never know...
