*WOW!! Despite the loss of points in the Damon card this pull may have just made this box a contender. I think this is also the 3rd or 4th Printing Plate I have pulled. I know there were 2 from Topps' flagship product and I might have pulled one from the 2009 T-206. Sweet fun!!*

6-pack Total - 75 pts

I cannot believe I managed to ring up 75 points with this 6-pack. Any time you can pull something unexpected from a pack it reminds me of the fun that collecting cards provides beyond the set building aspect. I am too excited to see what happens with the last packs, gotta go do them right now!!!!

Cheers,
