What's Buzz-worthy: This is (probably) my last of these as I found this one along with some other very hot examples awhile back and am simply getting to the desk-clearing stage of Buzz Breaks during this pandemic-downtime. (New-card production that has left some shelves out there a little more bare than normal.) This one delivered oddly like my last one, so here's a familiar line ... what's better than three Purple parallels? How about 16 ... though I say that admitting that the older ones thrown in here were uncomfortably beat up like last time (partly a result of how they were originally packaged). That last one in the gallery is just brutal. ... Why dabble with these repacks? They are the only home for 2019 Topps Update Purple parallels -- check out my huge box from a recent rip here that yielded a big-money card -- that can deliver very well. Why are these rare? Well, it seems as if there was some type of snafu and the Meijer-exclusive cards didn't get distributed like they normally do in packs ... only here. All of the inserts in this one are in the gallery with a sampling of notable base cards along with the guaranteed hits ... not the best one but I'm still way ahead after the first one delivered big.

Product Grade: A- (Purples make it interesting along with guaranteed hits for price)
Box Grade: C (probably the norm here ... not as many highlights as previous ones I've opened)
Fun Grade: C+ (I've definitely had better ones)
