Ok so I am so very close to completing the set, what better way to attempt to finish it than buying 2 more boxes! Thanks to doing a task my wife didn't want to do, I landed myself two more boxes of my favourite 11-12 product. Here we go, nothing but hits and no frills at that.
Box Toppers
Topper 1
Emelin is haunting me and this is my second one. I received the other as a NPN win from Panini. This one is up for trade.Topper 2
Love this one, jersey/stick combo. I am keeping this one.
Rookies
Each pack has a rookie, I am just pointing out my more notable ones and I am starting with Marcus. Marcus is a former Canadian World Junior so this one is a fun hit.
Another former WJ, Leland won gold with Canada in 2007. Currently he is one of a few goalies looking to steal the vacant starting job in Calgary.
Most rookies were Pinnacle ones and Gustav is the best of the bunch!
Game-Used/Player Worn Hits
Each box claims to have a couple of these and mine was no exception. I was lucky enough to hit another Pinnacle Starting 6. This one features a good selection of rookies from the 11/12 season. Henrique makes this one a keeper!
Ryan Ellis!!! I hope we see him again!
I didn't know Philly and Detroit were rivals.
Rookie Treasures
Each box has one of these unless you are lucky. Talbot......Rangers....Yuck.
Teemu! I promised he would be back, another disappointing Oiler hit.
Case Hits
I was fortunate enough to have two large hits as well. Here is proof Montreal is haunting me for sure! Dual patch/auto rookie parallel of Raphael Diaz aka Number 61. This one is numbered 14/15 and can be yours if you want to trade for it.
My favourite hit of the box.....Ryan Ellis Ice Breaker Rookie auto. These are one per case and I landed a PC guy. I really can't ask for much more (except maybe RNH).
There you go, sorry no big write-ups that I typically do but two boxes that I am pretty happy with but more than willing to trade more away. I did also finish my set which is an added bonus!
do you still got the diaz
ReplyDeleteNo I sold it about 6 months ago on eBay. Sorry.
