UFC Series 4 - My Last Six Boxes

[UFCtrader]

unlucky on the miss hit, carwin best card so far?

Yeah the Carwin would be the best hit so far.

I'd say "unlucky" on the missed hit, but it seems to happen wayyyyy too often for it to be just bad luck. I really hope Topps get their act together for Knockout.

Almost didn't recognise you GIRDS, with that sig!

So just two boxes left.

Going to take a short break and get some food in me.

After all these boxes, still no Tale Of The Tape, or Thoughts from The Boss...

Mojo for the final two? I'm hoping.

Well that's it.

Will probably do a big sort-out with the collection this weekend. Have quite a bit to sell / trade. A few complete sets of all the inserts (GOTG, Poster etc), loads of GOLDs, and a few Autos and Relics (possibly including the two black Autos from tonight)

Still have a few cards coming from eBay, and not long now until Knockout comes out (case on pre-order!).

*YAWWWWWN* Work in the morning. Bugger etc.

A few nice cards there...

Sucks about never getting a super massive hit in all the boxes youve busted. It just proves how much of this stuff was made and how watered down it is... Bring on Knockout i say. Though that will probably have the same problems just with nicer cards.

Sucks about never getting a super massive hit in all the boxes youve busted.

It is a bit disappointing. If I've counted right then I busted 49 Boxes of this series, which is 588 packs (no wonder I've got so many spare base cards!)

According to Beckett, Tale of The Tape odds are 1 in every 2,500 Hobby Packs and Thoughts From The Boss are 1 in 2,490.

So basically I only had about a %23-%24 chance of finding a ToTT or TFTB in the packs I had.

Plus the Big Nog Ruby I pulled has odds of 1 in 1,061. So I should probably feel quite lucky for getting that.

If I look at it that way, it's not too depressing I guess.
