Well, that is all for box 1. This appears on the surface to be a pretty strong entry, but you never know what someone else might pull. I heard a vicious rumor out there about someone pulling a red ink auto, so you never know. Eventually I'll collate all of these and figure out how close to completion I am when this box is combined with the second one. There is still no word from Topps about my missing hit and damaged minis. I emailed the brand manager, so we'll see how that works out. That box probably won't be posted until those issues are addressed, BUT there is a third box on it's way. It'll probably be here by the time I'm back from the beach on Wednesday.

    And remember, I have not yet begun to fight!

  3. selassie's rastafari status surely makes his national heroes card worth at least another 10 points.
