2013 Topps Triple Threads Amethyst parallel - The first of many, many posts from my COMC Black Friday Hauliday!

Card Manufacturer: Topps

Card Set: Triple Threads

Card Number: 79

Card Type: Base Color Parallel

Parallel Set: Amethyst

Card Attributes: Serial Numbered

Serial Number: 183/650

I ended up picking up a ton of new Younts for the supercollection this Black Friday from COMC. I think I added over 35. 

First up is my first base card of any kind from this years Triple Threads.  I really love the purple cards that Topps has been putting out this year. From Chrome to Triple Threads they all look good.  This is actually the Amethyst parallel and they are the high numbered parallel this year.  This is the second year that Topps decided to stop serial numbering the common base card.  I didn't notice last year because Robin didn't have a base card in that set.

I also like that the color variation continues onto the back of the card.

I've already managed to acquire one of this years Unity relics and that'll probably be enough for me.

Stay tuned for the rest of the haul.  cb out

You know the best part of about Topps Triple Threads each year is the base cards. Seriously. It seems that those are the only cards in the set that change.  Look at all the relics and auto cards in this years set and they look exactly like all the years past.  But for some I guess that's a good thing.  I have a hard time keeping up with every insert set in Triple Threads too, mainly because there are a ton and on top of the each set has about 5 parallel versions.  

It was a little overwhelming for a player collector. Until I realized that I could be happy with just one representative card for my collection.

I ended up picking up this beauty recently and for a great price.  This is from the Unity Jumbo Relic set.  The base cards in the set are numbered to only 36.  This one happens to be the Sepia parallel numbered to 27. And there are 4 more parallel versions numbered even less.  But I'm happy to finally have this one card in the collection.  Not that I wouldn't hunt down the other parallel versions of the card for the right price, but I'm happy to have just the one Unity Jumbo Relic card in the collection.   Now to find some cheap base.
