Update: It's here -- and here's your direct link.
Who wants to wait until Friday? Blowout Cards simply isn't as we're doing the ol' Black Friday thing all week long -- and Black Friday Week begins in less than 12 hours from now.
It all starts on Monday at 7 a.m. Eastern with the biggest deals in the business on tap beginning at that time and lasting as long as they can. But you shouldn't shop and run early as each day will have new deals -- and reloads -- all day long and Buzz will have Buzz Box giveaways -- boxes of free stuff -- each day, too. (Look for details on those tomorrow morning about an hour after the sale madness begins.)
While you've seen Doorbuster deals with each wave of Black November right here all month long, there's even more to come.
Like what? Keep reading for a sneak peek at some of the new deals on the way ...
2015 Bowman Draft Picks & Prospects MLB 12-box hobby case -- $599.95
Prospectors know all about the crop of debut cardboard here but these few years later there are a number of guys here who have already made their mark in MLB with championship teams or squads that are destined to be in contention in the coming years. Andrew Benintendi already has his World Series ring -- and his first stuff is here -- and the same goes for teammate Rafael Devers and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Walker Buehler, who didn't get a ring but started Game 3. Meanwhile, Dansby Swanson is part of an Atlanta Braves squad that could be pushing into the postseason for a while. Others of note here include Kyle Tucker, Brendam Rodgers, Austin Meadows, J.P. Crawford, Ryan McMahon, Blake Snell, Scott Kingery, Aaron Judge, Austin Riley, Sean Newcomb, Matt Olson and a number of others with potential -- all reasons to dig in here.

2016-17 Panini Revolution NBA Hobby Box -- $39.95
This dazzler of a product includes 100 basic cards and 50 Rookie Cards atop that -- all with a crazy array of rainbows and a bit of an oldschool chase that's not about ink in every box. Meanwhile, there are autos and that roster is one that includes a number of big names -- Anthony Davis, Kobe Bryant, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, Andrew Wiggins, Karl-Anthony Towns, Grant Hill, Patrick Ewing, Allen Iverson, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal ... and so many more from the past and present. If you like your cardboard with all kinds of modern looks, this one's for you.
2013 Bowman Chrome Mini MLB factory set -- $99.95
Don't let the Mini name fool you, this one is stacked with nearly all of the notables from the year when it comes to prospects and rookies in this 330-card release. The kicker with this atop the names? Refractor parallels with rare print runs and the ability to land printing plates and Superfractors here -- sometimes multiple 1/1s per set. Big names in this one in the last few years have included Byron Buxton, Carlos Correa, Austin Meadows, Hunter Renfroe, Christian Villanueva, Miguel Andujar, Dylan Cozens, J.P. Crawford, Aaron Judge, Clint Frazier, Gerrit Cole, Anthony Rendon, Manny Machado and Yasiel Puig among others. This one is a safe buy if you want some names but with solid potential on the parallel from as you get at least 30 parallels per box here. If you land one of those solid names on a rare card, it's all gravy.

2018 Panini Prizm NFL hobby box -- $129.95
Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you -- one of the scorchers for boxes in the right-here, right-now is in the big sale. This year's Rookie Card crop along with autographs and rare parallels make this one a winner and there's a good amount of other stuff to chase here, too. You get three autos, 24 RCs, nine serial-numbered Prizm parallels and then five other inserts or Prizm cards per box -- simply stacked. The lesson of Patrick Mahomes this year is what his cards looked like last year -- it's safest to grab those rarer rookies and their autos while you can more affordably. This is probably one of those times for this wax.

2018 Topps Heritage High Number MLB hobby box -- $59.95
Speaking of stacked -- and steals -- this A+ product is one that could look legendary as the days on the calendar pass and the boxes vanish. Why? Rookie Cards and autos for guys like Ronald Acuña Jr., Shohei Ohtani, Juan Soto and plenty more -- this one is stacked with newcomers (and not that great for veterans). Then you throw in all of the oddities that come with a Heritage release -- Flip Stock, variations, Chromes and more -- and you can really do well if any of those align with the big names. Pulling any one specific name isn't that easy beyond the base set but when the price is like this it's time to rip -- especially for hobby boxes. If you look back at recent years' Heritage rookies and autos, you should see some solid upward potential here as the last set for H in the 1960s closes out that memorable decade with a stacked release.

2012-13 Panini Marquee NBA hobby box -- $29.95
Want to rip into a box that's hefty and includes plenty of variety and meaty potential? This is one as it presents a tiered approach with a few formats for each rookie -- diecuts, acetate, varying stocks -- and amplifies it. There are nearly 550 different basic cards here and nearly 400 of those are Rookie Cards. Even better? The RC class includes Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, Klay Thompson, Kawhi Leonard, Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green and Reggie Jackson to name a few. You get three autos per box here and there are notables from the past and present among the possible autos, everything from Larry Bird, Bill Russell, Magic Johnson and Phil Jackson to the rookies. It's a fun one that even Buzz (not a heavy NBA buyer) has ripped a few times in the past.

2013 Panini USA Baseball set -- $19.95
Want to chase notable MLB players and prospects before they were pros without breaking the bank? These sets are the places to do it -- and you get several hits per box to help give you a better shot at the guys who made it. MLB guys who were in this one first include Alex Bregman, Matt Chapman, Michael Conforto, Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner and a number of prospects working their way up. You'll get nine hits per set here and there are some impressive patch and multi-player auto cards also in the mix here if you don't land a big name you can find cards that can still surprise. This set also included the first autos for recent Golden Spikes Award winner Andrew Vaughn whose auto cards can easily pay for a set or two at this price.
2015 Panini USA Baseball set -- $19.95
This one also packs potential like the one above it with a number of younger guys here who are in the mix or potentially coming soon. Among them? Hunter Greene, Brendan McKay, Ian Anderson, A.J. Puk, Blake Rutherford, Matt Thaiss and guys as young as the 14U National Team who have autos and memorabilia here. Since this one is newer, there could be more potential and a longer wait to see who might pan out here -- but it's still a fun break even if you get an average box at this discounted price.

2018 Topps Gold Label MLB hobby box -- $39.95
Want a simple MLB rip stacked with Rookie Cards, stars from the past and present, and one that guarantees an autograph in every box? This is one to consider. The framed autos fall one per box and they can include the likes of Aaron Judge, Bryce Harper, Cal Ripken Jr., Don Mattingly, Frank Thomas, Gleyber Torres, Jose Altuve, Juan Soto, Kris Bryant, Miguel Andujar, Mike Trout, Nolan Ryan, Ronald Acuña Jr. and Shohei Ohtani to name a few. Plus with the tiered base set you have three times the RCs for guys you might be chasing with parallels on top of that. This one is simple but it can deliver well for its price point.
