First Look: 2010 Topps Series 1, Part II

OK, so I have had a little more time to open the rest and scan the "hits". Overall after opening 8 packs of these I am pretty pleased with what I got, and the product overall. In Series 1 and 2 Topps the base cards are less fun than the inserts so the fact that you do get a good amount of inserts in the packs is a good thing, at least to me. Here are packs 5-8.

This will probably be the end of my purchasing 2010 Topps Series 1 packs. I bought a couple of packs that felt lucky for the sake of reviewing and well, I like opening packs. I also went and scanned the wrapper at the request of a reader to show the odds of the inserts.

Peter a.k.a. Flash put up a blog with pack breaks as well now go check it out at Dropped Third Strike.
