Brendan_B Tap n Play cricket breaks

[Brendan_B]

After two weeks of attending multiple newsagents and servos (and a bit of online whining) in my area I found a box at the Caltex.

I grabbed 15 packets, nothing exciting, hits are below;

Silvers - 11, 26, 55, 69, 114, 144, 160, 175

Golds - 45, 88, 120, 161

Memorable Moments - MM-06 (Faulkner)

Best of the Bash - BB-01 (Ludeman), BB-10 (Hogg)

No idea what I will collect at this stage, will wait until I can grab a folder and see what looks good.

I really like the parallels with the foil edges, simple yet effective. The only problem is a few came damaged and this is really noticeable. Maybe as TnP become more established they could use different images on the parallels.

Commons, particularly the test team look and feel good in hand.

The low end inserts are very plain, almost common like. I feel they need something to make them standout, a bit of foil or just something to take that plain edge off.

Anyways I am sure I will buy loose packets here and there, good luck to others!

5 more packets this morning for three golds (14, 72, 89), a silver (025) and Memorable Moment 4 (Klinger century)

The gold parallel version of the test players look excellent.

I haven't spied any folders yet and the only place I found these so far are a Caltex and 7Eleven

Glad you have managed to find the packets. Good luck with pulling a signature card next time round.

Thanks Alex. I would love to jag a signature, particularly a Smith, they look excellent.

What are you chasing from this release?

 

[pommiealex]

Would quite like a Smith, Perry and Starc signature.
Plus the English boys in silvers and golds. Especially carberry. I have some boxes coming just gotta wait on international post with the Christmas delays!!

Not sure where you are, but the other day my local newsagent at Taigum had a Cricket album which they must have gotten in cause I brought the one they originally had. Also, the newsagent at Toombul Shopping Centre had one when I was in there a week ago.

Sandhu Young Star
