2 more cases, 2012 Topps Olympic Blaster, 2014 Topps Olympic Hobby

[sliqwill]

alright the Blaster is 16 boxes, 8 packs per, so 128 packs

Rings Patch 1:91
Event Pin 1:147
Flag Patch 1:91
Rings Pin 1:147
Stamp 1:201
Auto 1:142
Relic 1:31

those are things i SHOULD pull

im 8 boxes in...

Flag - Yvette Lewis (common)
Rings Patch - Sarah Groff (common)
Relics - Sue Bird (decent), Mariel Zagunis (common)
Stamp - Wheelchair Rugby (not sure what the 'good' ones are aside from gymnastics)
Rings Pin - Abby Wambach (should sell $30+)
Auto - Alicia Sacramone - Gymnastics



not a bad start...and the Sacramone is GOLD /15, 1:1230

lets hope the back half is just as good, the Sacramone should pull down $60+

also, i should end up with like 10 base sets and 1 bronze set, but with other stuff i have, i should get a total of 2 bronze, 1 silver, and hopefully a gold, though the gold isnt too impressive...ill have an insert/parallel update likely tomorrow, but back to cracking...

 

[sliqwill]

yep, second half not as good as the first...

Relics - David Oliver (common), Maya Moore (decent)
Auto - Brady Ellison (like $7)

from what i had read you got like 11 hits per case

Relic - Jordyn Wieber 2 CLR Bronze /75 ($40ish)
Medal - Silver 1:2400 ($15+)

should be an easy 'cover' even if i paid for it, i think it was $174 or something for the case at Blowout, but i used site credit...i also picked up a $13 lot of base/parallels/inserts that will be factored in when i do the set numbers and such...

now if someone wants sets and such...especially the Gold, since i think i can complete it, maybe $50 on that?...i got most of the big names out of the case...

now on to the 2014 Hobby...lets hope it is as good as the 5 boxes i broke a week or two ago...

 

[sliqwill]

alright, 6 boxes in, and rest time, as i get ready to spark up dinner...

another weird case...

Gold 1:8 - 19 no one good
Rainbow 1:24 - Tom Wallisch (completes my set i think), Lolo Jones
Base Relics (2 total relics per box they claim) Alex Shibutani, Max Aaron, David Wise, Meryl Davis (only decent in the group)
Base Autos - 1 auto per box - ZERO

Bronze Relic - Lindsay Jacobellis /75
Silver Relic - Julia Mancuso /50
Gold Relic - Kelly Clark
Sochi Patch (2 per case average) - Laurenne Ross, Ted Ligety
Rings Patch (2 per case average) - Evan Lysacek
Sochi Pin (1 per case average) - Alex Shibutani

Bronze Auto - Evan Strong /50
Silver Auto - Scott Lago /30, Ted Ligety /30
Gold Auto - Curt Tomasevicz /15 (terrible, next pack was Clark Gold Relic)
Champions - Scott Hamilton (one of the worst), Jim Craig (the best)

shorted a relic...more in probably 3 hours...

[sliqwill]

and the final 6

Golds - 18, Lolo Jones only 'name'
Rainbow - 6 not worth naming
Base Relics - Steven Holcomb, Shani Davis, Heather Richardson, Evan Strong, Steven Holcomb, Kelly Clark
Silver Relic - Meryl Davis /50
Rings Patch - Dylan Ferguson
Sochi Patch - Chris Mazozer, Marco Sullivan
Sochi Pin - Taylor Fletcher

Base Autos - 2, Evan Lysacek (meh), Lindsey Vonn ($40ish)
Bronze Auto - Kikkan Randall /50
Gold Auto - Amy Purdy /15 (decent $40ish)

Champions Autos - Brian Boitano (what would he do?), Mike Eurizone ($40ish)

not bad, never hit 2 Gold Autos in a case, never hit less than 4 base autos in a case, and never had a case not hit a multicolor relic

scans later...
