After box two, my set was 71% complete. I only had one duplicate, but as the set comes closer to completion, the multiples become greater. The struggle of set collecting...
Base Cards - 108 cards (36% of the complete set) with no duplicates.
Of the 108 base cards in the blaster, I needed 48 of them for my set. After the blaster, my base set is now 87.3% complete. I need 38 cards to finish off the set.

It's disappointing that I now have 12 red parallels, and two of them are Rick Nash.

Three blasters down, two to go.  I know that I won't be able to complete the insert sets, but hopefully I can finish the base and end up with an extra Alex DeBrincat.  Hopefully.  
If you shop online and haven't signed up and used ebates yet, you're missing out.  I also use it on eBay to get money back from purchases there.  Between referrals and cash back, I've gotten over $150 in a year (including $15 back on one Black Friday purchase last week).  FREE CARDS!

Sweet Modano. Might need to look for a completed Pankhurst International insert set on eBay.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big fan of them but if you can find a set, that's certainly the way to go. Even with perfect collation, it would take eight blasters to put the set together.
DeleteI'd feel the same way if I pulled two Rick Nash cards-or one, for that matter. Is the Nylander card as awesome in-hand as it looks in a scan? The Tarasenko East-West insert is neat, too.
ReplyDeleteThe Prominent Prospects look much better in-hand than my scanner shows them. I like the West East-West cards because of the royal blue background. The Easts (red) don't pop as much, in my opinion.
