COMC Black Friday Card Haul #52

We're here finally, the last new Yount card I received from last years COMC Black Friday event.  

I wish I could I saved the best of for last, but all I've got is an insert parallel.  It's not a base insert parallel, but I did already feature it's relative the Gold Minted months ago.  Interestingly enough I have yet to pick up the base version of this card.  The Topps Fire set was a retail exclusive and the Gold Minted and Blue Chips were product specific parallels.  Meaning the Gold Minted were found exclusively in Blasters and these Blue Chips were found in fat packs.  Still a great card and one of many Yount/Yelich card pairings last year.  I'm sure there will be many more to come.

Well that's it.  I'm looking forward to COMCs next big even I think that happens next month.  The Spring Cleaning sale event should net a few more new Younts for the collection and I already have a bunch sitting in my portfolio over there.

Thanks for putting up with the COMC Black Friday Haul breakdown, only took me 4 months to work through all 52 new cards.

2019 COMC Black Friday Haul #9

The emergence of Christian Yelich's stardom has really made him the go to Brewers for inserts and token representation in small sets now supplanting Ryan Braun.  Although I liked it better back in the late 2000's when Milwaukee had two recognized superstars in Fielder and Braun and they were in very thing, but I digress.  2019 saw Yelich and Yount paired up on a bunch of insert cards, and I'm ok with that.  Topps Fire is one of those sets either you love it or don't.  I'm not a big fan and these lasting legacy inserts are a little garish, but I do love the pairing and the imagery takes me back to the '90s.  Topps Fire was a Target retail exclusive, but every now and then I find packs at other retail outlets.  The Lasting Legacy inserts had two parallels and those parallels were product specific, with these Gold Minted parallels being found in blaster boxes and the other parallel, Blue Chip, being found in Fat Rack Packs.
