Ordered a box of WWE Undisputed 2021 from Topps when they were briefly available on the site. Very happy with my results. The two big hits are Edge (18/50) & Undertaker (5/5). Also, who wouldn't love 2 Mace autographs?

Busted a case of WWE Topps NXT 2021. Each of the 12 boxes had at least 1 parallel auto. I think I did pretty well. The Indi is to 10, Thatcher to 25, Ciampa to 50. Purples are to 75, greens are to 99 & the base autos are to 250. The Priest card on the top left is 1/1.

Pre-ordered the new Parks & Rec POPs from Target months ago & got this today. I completely forgot that there even was a chase.

Finally got the 2 boxes of Topps WWE Women's Division 2020 that I preordered last October. The cards are very nice & on-card autos are always a plus. Carmela is to 150, Mickie to 199, Mia to 50 & Mercedes to 99. I would buy more boxes if the price drops to the $50-$60 price range.

I bought 4 more boxes of NXT 2020 & did pretty well. I know Shotzi autographs are pretty popular right now. I really like the 1/1 Swerve auto plate. The gold signature looks better than the usual blue.

Found the only 2 ECCC exclusives that I wanted at Walmart today. Didn't know anything about the Ghostbusters pins, but they were only $7.88, so I grabbed them. Another big non-Funko win was the Ric Flair 30 For 30 DVD at Dollar Tree for, you guessed it, $1.

I got my two boxes from my pre-order today. I'm not too impressed. There are contest cards in each pack to win two tickets to a NXT live event. Lots of problems with that. First, there are no NXT live events, other than at the PC. The card says that the contest began on July 29 and ends on December 31, which is tomorrow. It also lists a website to go to for details - www.topps.com/NXT2020. The webpage does not exist. I don't know why they didn't remove eveything about this contest from the boxes. NXT toured nationally, even internationally pre-covid, so they definitely meant "local" live events. You're right, it would've been simpler to remove the cards, but the product was likely already printed/packed before they knew shows would be canceled or at least before they'd be canceled for an indefinite amount of time. I'd hope they will open up a new contest or have some a comparable contest/prizes for what they can do, whether it's a merch package or something. From experience, boxes are always hit or miss. It's the cheapest way to pull a high value card, but it's very unlikely. It's for sure more economic to just buy the cards you want off eBay, even if it's expensive, because with opening boxes you're unlikely to recover the cost of the box in card value and you're often left with cards you don't even want. Just curious, how much did the boxes cost on pre-order (plus tax and shipping?)? I'm aware of the fact that NXT normally has live events & that's what the contest was for. This product was originally supposed to be released in July & was delayed several different times. They even changed the layout of the boxes from 24 7-card packs to 2 25-card packs, so they definitely had the opportunity to remove the contest cards & info from the boxes. In the grand scheme of things, it isn't important, but I just found it odd that the contest was still advertised despite the fact that it wasn't actually happening. I paid approximately $48 shipped per box.

I found an untouched case of Walmart exclusive minis yesterday, so I bought all 12 even though I have a case on preorder that's been delayed until January 21. I got Toby & Hay King Dwight & Stanley who I also needed. I just need Bookface Jim & The three Hot Topic exclusives. I'm not sure if I should cancel the preorder or test my luck in getting Bookface & then use the extras as trade bait for the ones I'm missing.

Got a shipping notification today on my 2 boxes of 2020 NXT cards, so the 100th release date of 12/30 finally stuck! I've seen a few autographs for the set on eBay today so I figured it was finally going to happen. Will post if I get anything good. I got my two boxes from my pre-order today. I'm not too impressed.

Opened 8 boxes of Topps NXT 2019. There are 2 autographs per box. However, there are also hot boxes (1 per case) that have 5 autos in them. Luckily I wound up with 2 hot boxes. However, 4 of the 5 autographs were the exact same base autos. Numbered autos include: Bobby Fish 69/99 Johnny Gargano 21/99 Mia Yim 75/99 & 85/99 Roderick Strong 40/99 Jessamyn Duke 84/99 Nikki Cross 45/50 Candice LeRae 39/50 Base autos are Roderick Strong (x2), Otis (x2), Lacey Evans (x2), Ivar (x2), Erik (x2) Marina Shafir, Bobby Fish & Damien Priest The big hit is the Chelsea Green Autographed Kiss Card numbered 03/10. In spite of several duplicate autos, I'm very happy with these boxes especially at the discounted price I paid for them.

This was also a group break. It cost $39 to enter. I was in it, but had pick #20. Obviously, Macho Man was picked #1.

Found all of E78 (except Billy Graham), all of Battle Packs 67 & all of Basic 111 (except for Nikki Cross) at Target in Linden. I grabbed the only Naomi, which was the chase.

Clark Target today had all of E75 (regular Hurricane & 2 Billie Kay) & all of E77, but I left with the only Fiend for $13.99. E75 were $19.99. Also, the Shoprite across the street from that Target has the Survivor Series Elites from last year for $14.99 each. They had all four & are on an endcap in the frozen foods section of all places.

I bought another case of WWE since the price went back down on Amazon. The 4 blind boxes were 2 Cenas & 2 Lesnars, so there wasn't much mystery, but the rest of the case was excellent - 1 each of Reigns, Finn Balor, Savage, AJ, Undertaker, Nakamura, Nakamura Black Pants (1/24) & Sting (1/24). I also got 2 pieces of the ring, one that I needed & one that I got in the last case.

Today I got the E76 Christian that I ordered from Walmart & it was the chase. Not too bad for $15.88.
