Recent Breaks

[Tazhawk]

Been a little while but recently received a few boxes from D&A. Bit short of time but I'll just post up some pics, etc. of what was in them.

First was a box of 2013 Black. Got one before and just liked the cards so gave it another try:



R.G. III 168/299
D’qwell Jackson 20/99
Brian Cushing 10/49
Jamie Collins 73/199
Andre Ellington 125/299
Terrance Williams 6/25

Other Base/ Rookies:
Mychal Rivera 29/49
Jamie Collins 34/399
Kiko Alonso 252/399
Barkevious Mingo 282/399
Dashon Goldson 270/399
Gerald McCoy 348/399
Alec Ogletree Metal


Next was a 2013 Prizm, which yielded these autos:



And a 2015 Clear Vision:




Got a few Bears in amongst all that lot for the PC, but if anyone needs anything, or to make up sets, etc, let me know and I'll have a look. Can look through my other threads too if you like.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice hits in the black- if Cushing, Collins, and ellingtona are ever available. Might check my clear vision out. Lattemore would have been a huge hit back then

 

[Wattsup]

#38 Running back for the Niners! haha
Been meaning to get some Clear Vision as they look nice from the pics, in hand are they good?

 

[Tazhawk]

Yeah I was quite impressed. The look of the Wilson patch seemed a little plain to me but the rest was very nice. The Kaepernick is a thick bit of plastic, fits in a 130pt toploader. Would get another box for sure.

And that #38 could be becoming a bit of a jinx in SF.

Gotta love it when the postie delivers on Saturday, especially when he has your boxes from D&A's Black Friday sale.

Had some time to open a box of 2013 Fleer Retro this afternoon, and was a bit like a walk down memory lane with all the metal cards, etc.

Wasn't expecting much as the box was only about $29US, but was happy to come across a few new additions for my old timers PC's.



Then some others of note, but nothing really special: Jerome Bettis, not numbered but the only one of its kind in the box, and Bernard numbered /34 and Franklin /150.



Then two sigs in the box, first up was Kevin Reddick....



and then, in the second to last pack.....





Not numbered or anything, but pretty happy about that!

Still a couple other boxes to go, but thanks for looking.

 

[Ozsportsfan]

oh damn!!! Barry!!!! what else did you buy?

 

[Ozsportsfan]

Am hoping to mail your stuff out next week. I have a bunch of prizm and stuff to comb through for some PC stuff for you

 

[Tazhawk]

Yeah, that sort of thing doesn't happen to me very often. Also got a 2014 Rookies & Stars, and Totally Certified. Reasonably priced just for the fun of ripping some boxes.

 

[Ozsportsfan]

look forward to seeing your results. Barry in OK State colors is always great to see

 

[Tazhawk]

That's fine Michael. I trust yours arrived?

 

[Ozsportsfan]

oh yeah. Sorry forgot to message on here they did lol. my bad. Posted them on twitter (as I am very active on it with my collection additions). Arrived perfectly. Think I got them Monday - last week of school writing and reading reports has blurred into one lol.

2014 totally certified could be interesting. I did a box of 2013 last month (again slack posting lol).

 

[AusRam]

Mighty hit on the Barry, well done!

 

[Tazhawk]

Cheers. I certainly had to give it a couple of glances to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing.

The 2014 Totally Certified offered up these:



Ed Reynolds RC blue 1/10, others not numbered.

While these came from 2014 Rookies & Stars:


Allen Robinson jersey 91/99
Sammy Watkins jersey
Logan Thomas RC Slide Show auto 10/100
Devonta Freeman RC Slide Show 55/98
Dwayne Bowe red 26/32
Andrew Luck blue 49/49
Crusades-Rookies: Aaron Murray, Allen Robinson, Andre Williams, Austin Seferian-Jenkins
Crusades-Zac Stacey, Colin Kaepernick, Anquan Boldin, Russell Wilson.

After the Retro it was always going to be a hard act to follow.

 

[Ozsportsfan]

Those slide show cards are cool.

 

[Tazhawk]

Yeah, a bit different. I should have held them up to the window when I took the pictures

 

[ekalb]

Great hit on the Barry. Wish Upper Deck still had an NFL license because they make some great looking cards!

I never liked college uniforms but I am starting to buy more and more UD because they make a better product and although my PC player may not be in my team colors I'm ok with it.
I have also found re-selling them a bit easier also especially if the player moves to another team or the seller collect players from certain University's.

I prefer my PC guys to be in the Raiders uniform, but their have been a couple where the cards were to nice to say no too! Some uni's seem to have a huge following and even if the player busts in the NFL (Tim Tebow) their uni stuff still sells really well.

 

[AusRam]

Yeah, not a fan of cards Rams players in their College uniforms myself. Will keep them if they were drafted as a Ram, but if they went elsewhere before becoming a Ram, they're ruled out of PC contention ! ;-)

 

[dAvaro]

I'm in reference to buying boxes with the possibility of jagging my PC player. Of course I want him in my Teams colours.
I would not buy my team in a break of UD products.
