10 packs! Young Guns! A Jumbo Young Gun!
And here you have the Jumbo Young Gun! Unlike both entries for the Senators Young Guns, he's still with the team. He's seen action in every Habs game so far this season - not bad for a 19-year old 4th rounder.
And the regular Young Guns portion included the checklist card. At least there are players on this one.
The insert cards. Nothing really mind-blowing here.
Let's look at some random base cards.
Just what I always wanted on a card - a close-up of Drake Caggiula's shoe.
My first Vegas Golden Knights card! Jason looks like he's out there at gunpoint.
I really like the "pose with the milestone puck(s)" photos.
Multi-image cards make a return this season. There were some among the Canvas inserts last year - here we get them among regular cards. Anthony Beauvillier is another one who gets this treatment on his base card.
I don't know if this will remain my favourite base card once I've seen the rest of the set, but this will be hard to knock off the throne. It looks like a simple acknowledgement of the crowd, but the road uniform, and the tearing up show that this was from Subban's first game back in Montreal. A really great moment worthy of cardboard preservation.
There you go. That's probably the last of the non-singles I'll purchase from S1, having gone all-in on building OPC. Probably something repack-related next time.
Nice! I finally found two blasters today. I didn't get a DeBrincat Oversize. Mine were Jost and some Blue. I've opened all but five packs and already hit a McAvoy so that's probably as good as it'll get for me. Still one Young Guns left, though.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm building OPC as well. Will probably pick up my third box on Friday.
Nice! Is the P.K. a parallel of some sort? It looks metallic purple for the backgrop.
ReplyDeleteI went out looking for some tonight but my local store either sold out already or never bothered to put it out. Either is possible.
You're right, that Subban card is fantastic!
