TAB1980’s MASSIVE Random Pack Break (Win Prizes)!

[TAB1980]

12 packs down

Probably the worst Living Legends to get... no offense Dominique but the Jordan NBA Superstars is sweet!

The Living Legends cards do look great though!

 

[TAB1980]

16 packs down

Jordan Sharp Shooters!

 

[TAB1980]

20 packs down

Sticking hasn't been too bad so far in this box. A small amount of paper loss on a few cards but luckily none of the Jordan's.

 

[TAB1980]

24 packs down

And the man we've all been waiting for!

 

[TAB1980]

28 packs down

Danny Manning and Superstar... not sure about that one.

1st year phenoms continue to be grossly off-centered

 

[TAB1980]

Doesn't look like i'm getting one of @KnightsTragic hot boxes with the Living Legends...

Back in the day manning was the key man for the clippers.

Back in the day manning was the key man for the clippers.

Yes, but they were sh1t from memory?

 

[taffster74]

True. even with nique on the team for a season. But it was just a combo of poor management and coaching.

Hot boxes were real? My friend bought boxes of this back in the day to sell individual packs, and claimed he got a hot box where every pack was just inserts. I didn't believe him. Do you remember where the living legend was located in the box? Was it the top left corner, at the bottom of the stack? I remember being able to pick them out of the box, they were always in the same position.

Not sure if hot boxes were real but fleer for a few years did do hot packs where every card was an insert. They usually had a "hot pack" sticker or something similar on them though. I think they fell about 1:72 packs.

When i refer to Knightstragic's hot box, he did a box opening of Fleer Ultra on here recently where he definitely smashed the odds.

Interesting selection of Abdul-Rauf over Mutombo. That has to be a big fail!

Some nice names here though

 

[mad_tenchi]

It's been almost 30 years, this box and other early/mid 90's boxes are such a nostalgia trip.

 

[TAB1980]

Last 4 packs... probably combined, the worst 4 packs of the box

 

[TAB1980]

That was a really fun box. In terms of the overall set, it's probably missing a couple of nice sub-sets. There's too many base cards.

 

[TAB1980]

That's cool... with the Penny First Year Phenoms i pulled out of the random pack earlier in this thread, i now have the full set!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Very cool cards - don’t remember ever pulling such badly centered 1st Year Phenoms but then again I didn’t give 2 shits about centering back then!!

 

[Hornso]

Thanks for another great trip down memory lane.

 

[TAB1980]

Who's up for another box tomorrow?
