A 15 year long hiatus on card collecting this blog is officially back. I may have to switch to a more updated style but for now, I will to continue to post breaks and various pulls. I walked into my local hobby shop and purchased a hanger of Series 1 Topps Baseball, (2) Allen & Ginter retail blasters, and finally a box of 2021 Topps Chrome black. First off was the Allen & Ginter, a set I am particularly fond of, I think the last year I had was 2008 so definitely nostalgic for me.
Nothing game changing but I was excited to see an unexpected relic, Morneau having been retired for a few years now was surprising but Ill take it over base. The Topps series 1 hanger had nothing spectacular so I'll leave that one out. As far as the Chrome Black I receieved Kyle Seager /75 as well as Deivi Garcia Rookie.
The enclosed Auto was of Andrew Benitendi (in a royals uniform no less). Overall very underwhelming, hopefully doubling up on luck for next time.

First Look Topps 2024 Resurgence

Image
Today I will be going over my first look of Topps Resurgence 2024.Sample size being a nominal blaster box but review worthy nontheless. The base cards are chrome with a very clean and sharp finish. The photos used for the design are execllent by creating the effect of motion on a still image. The qualit of this product feels high and the cards are consistent. Attached will be an image of 2 base cards and 1 with a holographic finish. Next we will discuss the inserts. Which play heavily on the themes of motion and lightning as well as energy. I want to specifically highilght "Conductors" & especially "Circuit Breakers" for their design and just being a cool card. From a collectors stand point the set is really hard to beat. In terms of value, the jury is still out, base on sample size. It being unlicensed at this time will also play a role. Have you purchased any resurgence? Let me know in the comments how you feel.

Matt Garza No Hitter

Well I guess you can I made a great choice of a game to watch. That was one of the best games I've ever watched, I'm glad they Tampa Bay Rays now finally have a no-hitter under their belt. It sucks to now that if he didnt walk that one guy in like the 3rd, we would be talking about a perfect game today. But the important thing is that Matt garza throws the no-no and gets the win.
