2009 Playoff Prestige 2009 Retail Value Pack

Alec ripped a pack of the Hobby version of this and so here is the "Value Pack" Retail version...going in I have no really interest in this set other than just the experience of trying something new.

The design is sort of ho-hum in my opinion and my go-to blogger on the topic of football cards (Gellman of Sports Cards Uncensored) didn't really like it either.

2009 Topps Star Wars Galaxy Series 4

A lot like the 2006 Razor Poker pack, I am only really interested in one character's cards, Boba Fett.

2008 Press Pass Kiss Cards

B. Wags beat me to the punch on this one but I think we all want more Kiss cards don't we?

#1 The Early Days

I really like these old photo cards...if it was up to me this set would focus on 1971-1978 and that would be it.

#72 Fans

#9 Kiss Army Sticker

#35 Watchin' You

#52 Rocket Ride

Okay, this was fine...no bad cards of photos with band member without makeup...but where is the Kink card set?

2006 Inkworks Lost Season Two

I opened a pack from Season 1 here and now we are moving on to Season 2. Be sure to head over to PunkRockPaint to check out his great collection of retro Lost cards.

#72 Henry Gale

One would really have to wonder what Lost would have become if as originally intended Henry Gale/Ben Linus was only in a few episodes.


#35 Tested

#40 Vengeful

#84 Desmond + Penny

#8 Unchanged

#90 Checklist

#15 Mistake

2006-2007 Upper Deck Hockey Series 2 Retail

Five cards...$1.59 from the Target clearance bin...and one card of a player I know (that would be the Rob Niedermayer). I like the photography...beyond that I'm not sure what to say. This pack won't change my life.

#374 Mike York

#266 Zdeno Chara

#255 Rob Niedermayer

#300 Mark Rycroft

#421 Jay McKee

2006 Razor Poker Hobby

This is my first Razor product...and this was Razor's first product...The only card I'm interested in is fellow Wisconsinite Phil Hellmuth.

#64 T.J. Cloutier

#32 Todd Brunson

#20 Michael Gracz

#44 Greg Raymer/David Williams Super Showdowns

Yes! Hellmuth MOJO!
