Another trip to my LCS

It was time to visit my local LCS again; I haven't been in quite a while, and I was looking for some help to complete some sets.  I have been having some thoughts about my collection as a whole, and I feel like I am all over the place, so I'm trimming things down and going to really work to complete some of the sets that I've been working on for quite a while.

First off, I asked for the 2013 Topps Update box.  I did well here, picked up most of the cards I needed to complete my set, as well as some Cubs and Royals to put in my team collection.  Now, I'm down to five more to complete my set.  They are listed in my set needs tab.  I'm hoping to do one or two trades to help out with my last five.

 

Next, I asked for the 2012 Bowman Platinum box.  They actually had platinum sets from 2010-2013 in the box, so I first scoped out what I needed for 2012.  As far as the main set, I got everything I needed but one card!  So close!  My last card I need is Yoenis Cespedes.  I will get this card soon!  Then, I looked at the prospects, and gathered up quite a few of those, as well.  I will continue to work on the prospects set; I still have a ways to go there.

After scoping out the 2012's, I just glanced at the rest of the Bowman in the box, and picked up quite a few for my player collections.  I will say that Bowman has done a better job of improving card design over the years.  The 2010's are not much to look at when comported to 2012.  I also found some Bowman Sterling, and picked up some of those for my player collections, too.
