New 2/14 Faces

No events this time, meaning this won't be nearly as dark as the last 2/14 post.

My first sumo card! He's also a contender for the biggest member of the collection, tipping the scales at 386 pounds. While pro-wrestler Mabel/Viscera was billed at being in the 500 pound range, I'm far more trusting of Masashi's listed weight as opposed to a likely gimmicked weight.

Still, even 100 worked pounds is quite the deficit.
His Calder-nominated rookie season made acquiring his Young Guns card in time for this year's 2/14 recap cost-prohibitive. However, with his being all over Series 2, and likely also being all over Extended will make for some cheaper additions as the year progresses. Either way, this e-pack entry starts his presence in the collection. 
Despite being born in 2007, Sebastian Norman is still 6 years older than the youngest person in my collection in Indie Desroches from something in the Star Wars universe. He could end up drafted this year to give him some MLB cards in Bowman. If that doesn't work out, he will be off to Oklahoma State. 

Soccer may occupy its own section in my binders and spreadsheets, yet I still know very little about it beyond the most basic rules. But here's the latest addition to that binder in Alvaro Sanz on a Starball Foil parallel. I do know he played for FC Barcelona but is now with a second tier team known as Racing de Ferrol. I'm not too optimistic about cards becoming available of him there.

But there you have it!

  2. If I pull any extra Hutsons I'll start setting them aside for you. I'm not buying as much as I once did though.
