just before christmas i was in houston, and i found myself at target picking up a few things. i took a look at the card aisle and found a smattering of cards. no chrome update, but packs of allen & ginter, update, and blasters of stadium club. you might recall how i purchased a couple of blasters of the latter previously, and was rewarded with an abundance of astros red foil parallels. i figured i would reverse engineer the cardverse karma, and so i bought another blaster of 2024 topps stadium club.
it didn't work.
here are the bulk of the red parallels i found
that ha-seong kim card doesn't show it as a red foil parallel, but it's a tattooine card and so i was pleased to find the base version
i also picked up a max muncy red foil parallel to fill out a sportlots order, but didn't bother to scan the card. if anyone out there got a dodger blaster, let me know!
for my collection.
the only dodger i found was a chrome parallel of shohei ohtani's card
what this means is that after four blasters and a micro box, i found exactly two dodgers. both were chrome parallels, to boot.
most of the base cards i found in this blaster were duplicates. in fact, most of the base cards i found across all of my blasters were cardinals, guardians, yankees, rays, reds, and twins. this is crazy but with the collation in this year's stadium club it's not much of a surprise. i am expecting better results when the three archives blasters i ordered show up.
in the meantime, i did pick up a couple of dodger parallel singles to ease my frustration. i added both clayton kershaw's red foil
and chrome parallels.
