What's Buzz-worthy: Here's a blaster box that finally delivered a Relic. They're not that tough but I've seen rarer 100th Anniversary parallels and Nickname variations before I've seen this. (Find more breaks here.) The feel of this one is a solid re-do of 1969 Topps with a number of inserts that also focus on then as well as now. The orange swatch on this Machado Relic makes it a nice card for those who appreciate the Orioles colors, while the mini decals found only in these boxes add a nice bit of variety. This box included a number of big names, making it a satisfying rip, too.
