    2012 Topps Series 1 Blaster and Cereal Box (Scan Heavy)

    I was at my local Walmart and saw they had just put out 2012 Topps. I decided to skip buying a discounted blaster of A&G and bought these instead. Here's what the cards look like for anyone interested.



    Wrapper



    Manufactured Patch from Blaster



    Base Cards



    Walmart Blue Bordered



    Classic Walkoffs is on top and the front is one card the back is another card, just to show you what both sides look like. I'll have you know that both walkoffs mentioned on the cards came again my Astros ha.

    Timeless Talents is on the bottom and I scanned two different cards again to show front and back.



    Golden Moments



    Golden Futures



    Golden Greats

    Gold Standard - These cards have gold foil stamped into the circle stating some achievement by the player. In this case 3,000 hits for Jeter.



    Golden Anniversary cards I assume. Just like the diamond anniversary ones except gold and sparkly. Not too bad looking.

    1987 Mini Topps - I like this mini set a lot and can see myself collecting it this year.



    Golden Giveaway Code Cards (which I won't be participating in this year)


    Overall I had fun busting the little bit that I did. I like the design of the base cards better than 2011. Other than the base set and the Astros set I think I'll be collecting the Golden Futures cards and the 1987 Mini Topps set. I may buy a hobby box to get closer to a finished set and then just buy singles/trade for the Astros and inserts I want.

    Yea I was just going to buy one of those discounted A&G blasters that I've been scoring auto's/relics out of but I couldn't resist busting new Topps and getting some scans out there for everyone.

    Hobby released today as well. I should get mine wednesday or thursday. already got more people wanting them than what I have coming in. That is what happens when you go almost a month with no releases. Thanks for sharing the pics. I like the new design as well and love the inserts.

    The willpower lasted about five minutes, then off to the store I went.

    And struck out at three different stores.

    Ha, I love that. Hopefully they'll put them out soon for you to grab a box or two.
