And just like that, we're halfway through the Topps Holiday Advent calendar. I have to give Fanatics the smallest amount of credit - they did make it more convenient by putting all the first twelve doors on the left side of the box (although that might have been due to their own laziness, not convenience for the customer.)
Pack #12 has been procured, and it's ...
....
a standard 5-card pack. Let's close out the first half with something special...
A Marcelo Mayer Plaid parallel works for me! Two Brewers and a Corbin Carroll insert are less than exciting.
Here's the first half tally:
3 Evergreen inserts (Soto, Banks, Crews)
1 buyback (Anthony Rizzo 2024 Update)
10 Nice List inserts (Judge, Skenes, Duran, Rogers, Witt, Helsley, Judge, Henderson, Ohtani, Carroll)
10 Green Plaid parallels (Kikuchi, Josh Smith, Abel, Quero, Fried, Dezenzo, Perdomo, Rushing, S. Perez, Mayer)
30 base Holiday cards (including 6 rookies)
I won't come close to completing the 200-card base set, so I'll probably send some in care packages after Christmas and trade the rest on TCDB.
Will lucky #13 yield something special, or will it be another base pack? We'll find out tomorrow :)
Thanks for reading!

Might be tough to build the base set from one calendar, but you should come pretty close to completing the Nice List set.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why but the image of the carnage of the left side of the calendar is making me laugh! I hope there's still some nice stuff to pull and that collation treats you well.
