you definately get your moneys worth with the topps chrome blaster, IMO at least.

where are you getting the retail box at???
ive been looking for one and can't find one anywhere, except for target and walmart but they want the 2.99 for all 24 packs for a box and they couldn't even guarantee it would be sealed

oh ok, i was hoping blowoutcards could help me out but all they said is they don;t have it, never said they couldn;t get it but i asked in the original message to them and since its not exactly an expensive box they probably wouldn't care about trying to special order a case.
Im looking to do the xfractor set for just the rookies and maybe the veterans too depending on if i can get a case of retail boxes or even blasters.
Also is it just me, or do the blaster packs always have a rookie and either an xfractor or oe of the refractor variations in every pack. The odds say 1:3 for xfractors and refractors and 1:2 for rookies but every pack of the 2 blaters ive bought so far have had a rc and some kind fractor card. I got as many refractors in those 2 blasters as i did in the entire hobby box i bought, and then add in the xfractors and the rookie in every pack and i just cant help but feel robbed buying that hobby box, lol.

Your LCS should be able to get a hold of one if you have one near you. Where I got mine.

I would agree on the blasters seem to always have more than the stated odds....so far mine have had more xfractors than they should.

The retail I have seen opened has been poor. One Sanchez and one Crabtree out of three boxes. Weak on autos. The only advantage is the X and Blue refractors. You should have to pay about $35-$40 for a box.

TC is great retail-wise....hobby only gives you one auto(per) and maybe a red....retail you can pull the same(except for maybe red), but get the retail-exclusive blues...I would much rather have a blue chrome of the one of the studs, instead of a rookie auto of a nobody....just MO
