The first break of the new year is always an exciting time. It’s a nice reminder that baseball is just around the corner, along with the summer.
This is a pretty standard release from #topps. The Jumbo Hobby box contains 10 packs of 50 cards with 1 Autograph and 2 relics included. The biggest thing that stands out to me is there are a lot fewer insert cards in this release than we’ve seen in recently years. There is plenty of variety, but more base.
