I was reading on Twitter that 2018 Bowman was difficult to find at the local big box stores, i.e. Walmart and Target. Sure enough, the same thing happened to me, too. I was able to snag only 2 value packs from Target.
One of the unique things I noticed about the cards was the use of different logos for the MLB players versus the Prospects. Here is an example of the Royals logo use. I feel the logo in the diamond could be more prevalent and stand out a little bit more, like the logo on the Prospect cards. I do like the uniqueness of different logos, though.
Just a variety of Chrome and Base set cards
Insert cards...there are A LOT of insert cards!
The value packs at Target came with special "Camo Cards." I also snagged a blue and green card in my value packs.
A couple of Cubbies prospects
To finish out the packs, two player collection cards. The Salvy from above, and Wil Myers.
I ran into the vendor stocking cards at the WalMarts yesterday. He only had 6 2018 Bowman 22 card Jumbo packs. I took all 6, but I wonder if Topps is intentionally shorting retail on products like this.
ReplyDeleteI know anything beyond flagship Topps was impossible to find at the retail level in Denver all last year...
