Happy birthday!!!

It was my birthday several weeks back, but I'm just now getting around to posting my presents.  My local LCS has always been out of Triple Threads as fast as he gets them, however, Amazon never fails.  Here are my hits out of two boxes of Triple Threads, as well as a free pack of 2008 Topps Co-Signers:

Another Toys R Us run

There has not been any cards to buy at the local Walmart, so I've been hitting up the Toys R Us to fill my needs.  I purchased another 2016 Topps Opening Day box and hiding in the back was a box of 2015 Topps Archives, and it was discounted!  I'm still missing quite a bit, so I was hoping for some Archives hits.

2015 Topps Archives hits

My Topps Redemption is finally here!

Remember back in February when I posted my hits from Topps Strata and Topps Five Star?  Well my redemption finally came in the mail the other day!!!  It's finally a player for my PC!!!

It's a bad scan, but it's a Matt Harvey Clearly Authentic Autographed Relic Red Majestic Logo Parallel!!!  This is probably my biggest hit ever!  The only bad thing is that it is in the plastic case, and it won't fit into my player collection page.

Logan Moon

A nice return from Royals minor leaguer Logan Moon.  There are several top prospects at NW Arkansas for the Royals (Bubba Starling, etc.)  I wish I could get local boy Bubba Starling for my collection!

Kevin Elster

The Mets are one of my "secondary" favorite teams, so this return from Kevin Elster is a nice addition.  I always liked the blue jerseys the Mets used to wear.  He didn't return one card, which was a 1990 Donruss.  The red Donruss boarder looked really nice with Shea Stadium in the background.

You'll be seeing quite a few posts from me this week.  I finally have had time to organize my collection, scan some cards, and figure out where I stand.  I hope to get to trades again soon!  This TTM return is another nice addition to my Cubs collection!
