Don't get too excited, this blog is short and sweet. I noticed not many of you have seen the Tape Measure Shot cards, so I decided to scan them for you all to see. I bought one pack pack and it guarantees 2 of these cards per rack pack.
I still have to show you guys what I got in the pack from the hobby shop the other day. Well worth driving down there for it.
Topps should be embarrassed.

ReplyDeletewell done.
deal - I looked at my 4 Tape Measure Shots cards after your comment and:

I gotta say those Tape Measure cards are nice looking. How much are those rack packs?
ReplyDeleteI should have included the price. They are $4.99 in Target and I can bet they are higher in places like Toys R Us and Sports Authority.
ReplyDeleteI went to Toys R Us the other day trying to kill time before an appointment and they raised blasters to $21.99, and rack packs I believe were $5.99
And good points on the photos, I didn't even look at the pictures that closely.
Those tape measure shots would look pretty cool as bat cards.
ReplyDeleteThose 2 tape measure cards are the exact same 2 I featured on my blog, as well as the same 2 that I saw on Heartbreaking Cards' blog.
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't for Roy's comment I'd start to think those were the only ones they made.
LOL @nightowl. Clearly I need to brush up on my daily reading lately.
ReplyDeleteI saw a bunch of comments on twitter that people didn't know what these looked like so I just threw 'em up.
Gong.
I dunno, I still think Topps did better with inserts this year but both have awful base designs (in this wombat's humble opinion).
ReplyDeleteI do like the die cuts in UD though.
