Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Topps Composite Resurgence Amped Up Auto Jersey Orange /25

Last week I showed off my first 2023 Topps Composite Resurgence Amped Up Auto Jersey which was the purple /99, now I am showing off the only other one I have.

This one is the orange /25 and features two patch swatches, though they aren't as colorful as I have seen on others.

But it's acquired and off the list. So that's what really matters.

  

The orange part of this parallel is only around the boxes that enclose the jersey just like the purple one. The only other real big difference is the wavy refractor shine on this one is different.

 

Back of the card is still it's lame self. Come on Topps, put some effort in!

That's it for this week's Rodney.  Let me know your thoughts in comments.

Have a great Sunday!

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Topps Composite Resurgence Amped Up Auto Jersey Purple /99

For the first time in the history of Rodney, he had his very FIRST autograph jersey card featured in 2023 Topps Composite.

It took me a long time just to acquire a couple of them as the "other" Rodney collectors kept driving the prices up.

Today I am showing off one of the two I have. Next Sunday will be featuring the other one.

The helmet on these is turned to the side so you can't see the missing logos. The /99 features like a wavy refractor background

 

The backs are lame. I miss the days we would get picture of the items they wore for the relic cards.

Stay tuned for next Sunday to see the other one I have!

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Motif Blue /20

Here we go another Rodney's Cardboard! 

And here we go with another Motif.

This is the fifth of the fifth of these I have. This time it's another low numbered parallel as I try to add those first not knowing if they will come back in time.

 

The blue parallel just changes the foil border to blue. Nothing to special about the card or shinyness about it.

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Motif Scarlet /5

Good morning football fans or Rodney fans, welcome back to another Rodney's Cardboard!

Today, I am showing off my latest Rodney add from Topps Motif. I only have a few cards from the set as they don't pop up often.

This one is one of the tougher ones to find for the base parallels other than the 1/1, it's the /5.

 

The parallel is kind of lame as only the foil color is changed.

 

Back remains the same as the numbering is on the front.

Well, there you have it. Another new Rodney for this Sunday.

I hope everyone has a great rest of their Sunday. Thoughts on today's Rodney welcomed in comments.

I kind of wished I drank, because I will be spending my day watching the Giants and in order to watch them anymore, drinking is the only option.

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Topps Motif Base Card

Welcome back to a NEW Rodney's Cardboard!

It's been a while, so I have a little bit to catch up on.

Rodney found himself in a few products in 2023 including Select, Topps Composite and Topps Motif.

One of the last products I acquired any new Rodney's from was Motif. They were just really hard to find, not so much overpriced like the Topps Composite ones were. 

Which makes me wonder if this product really ever sold at all. So far there have been under fifteen total listings from what I have seen.

Crazy for today's times.

But, fortunately for me, I have landed a few of those including today's base card.

The design, without logos of course, reminds me of a Panini product. Maybe Origins.

 

Back is kind of bland, very little stats as well.

This is just the beginning of new Rodney's to come. Right now, I would rather be showing off new Rodney's every Sunday then watching the Giants. Their product on the field looks worst then this one.

Thoughts on this Rodney welcomed in comments!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Thanksgiving 2024!

Hey guys!

I hope everyone reading this today has a Happy Thanksgiving!

Try not to overeat like I will probably do. I spent most of yesterday prepping some parts of the meal as a starting cooker Gerrit Prep (like a starting pitcher) and now I will come in as Mariano Turkvera and close out the preparing and cooking of the meal.

As always there will be plenty to eat and plenty of leftovers. I don't know what my favorite part is, the food during or having the leftovers.

Let me know on this in comments along with telling me know about a card you are thankful for or something in general you are thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Matt

#TheBloggerNational2024

Hey!

If you haven't heard, for those of you at home and not going to The National, you can join in on the fun from home!

Just join #TheBloggerNational2024.

What is the Blogger National? Well, it's a blog-bat-around where you just take one post (or multiple if you so choose) in the next few days and dedicate it to showing off your coolest cards or your most favorite cards or a recent mail day you hadn't posted yet using the blog post title, The Blogger National 2024.

I want you to try to find the cards that are show worthy to you. You know, the dazzling cards that would attract all of the people over to your table (blog).

I know my latest mail day from long time blog reader Grady M would draw a crowd!

Last week I received a box of packed full of blaster boxes that are packed full of cards. If I had a real title for this post it would have been called packed full.

There are 11 blasters in all containing shiny, inserts, parallels and PC cards across multiple sports. It's always a fun dig in.

I will be exploring these boxes while everyone is experiencing The National. This is my National.

Thanks Grady for a good time!

As for the rest of you, blog post your own #BloggerNational2024 using the hashtag on social media or on your blog.

And if you actually made it to The National, have fun. I am jealous. 

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Certified Black 1/1

Today is a big day! I am showing off my final piece to my 2023 Certified autograph rainbow, the black parallel.

Thanks to my longtime friend Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday, I was able to add this bad boy to the PC.

I am glad to put one to rest of the 2023 Rodney Hampton blowouts that Panini put out this year. I am still working on the Spectra and the Absolute rainbows. Absolute is only two away while Spectra is four away. Hopefully someday I can finish both up.

That's it for this week's Rodney's Cardboard!

Rodney's Cardboard:1996 Fleer Ultra Sensations Rainbow Parallel

I have finally completed another 90's Rodney rainbow.

I have never, ever seen one of these pop up before so when I did not only was I shocked, but I was also very excited.

With being only one, yes one percent of the total print run of Ultra Sensations it makes it very tough to find the Rainbow Parallel for 1996 Ultra Sensations.

I am not sure what the odds are on these but they weren't easy.

There isn't much to these parallels compared to the others in the set. Just a few specs of color mixed in with the golden border.

 

Back of the card is the same as the others in the run. Not even numbered.

Speaking of rainbows, there is another one coming up next Sunday. So come back and check that one out!

Some Giant Adds!

As long as you didn't read my blog post title too fast, you would see that I have some Giant adds recently and not anything related to the Kardashians title you may have seen.

All of today's cards came via trade.

Hall Of Famer Michael Strahan jersey card came via a trade with Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday fame.

Same with this Ottis Anderson autograph. I should see how many of these I have now.

 

I stared at this Phil Simms autograph for weeks that someone had for trade on Twitter. I wanted to bite, but didn't think I could pull it off...but obviously I did. This is only my second autograph of Simms in my collection.

 

Along with the Simms tagged this Darius Slayton Optic Stars parallel. Really cool looking card.

I was pretty happy about adding these thicc cards. Yes, that may have been a joke bounced off from my opening line for today's post.

Thoughts on my cards welcomed in comments!

Eli's Countdown 1055:2019 National Treasures Treasured Moments

 

The Eli's roll on!

The latest addition has been one I have wanted for five years.

But, prices were too steep and out of my reach.

However, one finally popped up cheap enough and I grabbed it.

My most wanted Eli's are the ones that include either Super Bowl victory because who knows if I will ever see any more Super Bowl wins in my lifetime.

I know you feel me there Giants fans.

Eli's Countdown:2024 Leaf Metal Purple Wave /7

Eli is counting closer to 1100, but we aren't there yet.

Today is the latest addition to my Leaf Metal chase.

I had considered a rainbow chase on these, but there are way too many.

This one is a purple wave.

 

It is numbered to 7. This one I landed cheap even though it's an "eBay 1/1".

There are more Eli to come. I really need to update my TCDB as well with the new ones.

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Spectra Neon Marble Autograph /4

Rodney's Cardboard is new! I am running out of new Rodney's to show off, but for now, bask in the ambience of them.

I expected more out of these Spectra Rodney's especially the lower numbered ones but so far, they are simply meh. I would expect more out of one numbered to 4.

 

Here is the card back. It's numbered 3/4. This is the only one of these I have seen on the market so it's important to grab this stuff when you can.

There is still more of these I need to chase, the /8 just sold so I missed that one. The 1/1 already disappeared on me as well. The /10 is listed but I can't afford it right now. I guess for now I will be happy with what I have.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday. God Bless!

Eli's Countdown 1053:2024 Leaf Metal Purple Cracked Iced /5

Eli is counting closer to 1100, but we aren't there yet.

Today is the latest addition to my Leaf Metal chase.

I had considered a rainbow chase on these, but there are way too many.

This is a Purple cracked ice parallel. Looks better in person.

 

These are numbered to 5 so not an easy chase, even though I landed it pretty cheap.

More to this Eli chase to come!

Breakin Wax:2023-24 Prizm Basketball Value Pack

 Hello! Glad to have you back to read today's post.

Today is the second of the two packs that I bought and overpaid for on eBay using a gift card that I earned from Fetch. Details on the Fetch app is at the end of the post and hopefully you will sign up yourself and earn gift cards!

Anyways, this past basketball card season was all about WEMBY WEMBY WEMBY. It was being shoved down our throats and no product screams you need a Wemby from it more than Prizm. Prizm is still the heavy hitter when it comes to base rookie cards. The Wemby I believe for a base rookie still goes for $30-$35. It was up to $100 upon release.

But still, for a base rookie with nothing special about it, it's a good one.

I snagged this Value pack of Prizm hoping to beat the odds and pull one.

The value packs come with 15-cards which isn't much for the $17 I put into it. However, I was impressed that it wasn't just all base cards with a couple parallels.

I pulled a couple of base rookies, not Wemby so have no idea if they are any good.

Also three rookie inserts, not Wemby, but one is a silver.

 

And three Red, White and Blue parallels, not Wemby, but there was a Curry so there's that. Curry was probably the highlight of the pack.

I felt better about this break than I did the Bowman one. But still, rough for the price.
