The box: Hot Corner Box baseball card repack (The Fairfield Company)
Where to buy: Target (Click here for our Bargain Breaks section)

Packs per box: One hobby pack, three retail packs and two hits per box
Cards per pack: Varies by brand

Notables on base cards – See gallery for key pulls

Pack Breakdown:
-- One 2013 Panini Pinnacle hobby pack
-- One 2018 Topps Update retail pack
-- One 2018 Topps Series 2 retail pack
-- One 2015 Panini Contenders retail pack

What's Buzz-worthy: These repacks cost a little more than you might think for the size ($15) but they do seem to have some potential as this one included a Chrome auto, a dual-mem card and a couple packs that are the home of some notable names. My hobby pack here was a total dud, but the Topps Update pack has a ton of potential, my Series 2 pack was topped by Shohei Ohtani and Contenders is the home of a number of potential autos -- guys like Aaron Judge and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. This was a throw-in to get me to a certain plateau for a free gift card in a Target promo so I took a shot. Based on the packs, there could be potential here, though the hits seemed slightly better than what I would have expected. All in all I could have done worse.

Product Grade: A-
Box Grade: A-
Fun Grade: B
