Box Breaks: 8 Hangers, 4 Blasters, and 2 Collector Boxes of 2017 Bowman Platinum

So as I stated on Friday, Bowman Platinum has been on of the hottest products of the week thanks to it A)Having Cody Bellinger's first rookie card and B)Being a Wal Mart Exclusive. Everyone is wiping out Wal Marts clean all over the country buying these up. I was lucky that my Dad took a trip to our local Wal Mart and was able to buy it the inventory as they were stocking. I just got finished ripping it all and here's what I got!

Oh man was this a fun break. I think I did pretty good Autograph wise to say the least, two different Torres and a DeGrom numbered to 25! Pulled 3 Judge Base, Two Belly Bases, and 3 total Belly inserts, not to mention multiple copies of other rookies such as Bregman, Swanson, Moncada etc. I never do prospect driven products but I had a BLAST with this! I actually went to another Wal Mart today and they had 4 blasters still. I picked them up but will try to flip them on Ebay and see if I can make a little money. Definitely worth picking up!! Here's pic of the better cards!
