Have you seen the latest cool cards from a new release? With so many options for collectors of all kinds arriving every week it's possible you haven't. That's where Buzz comes in -- well at least on one brand you'll see here from time to time in what we're calling Buzz's Pick Six. Simply put, here are six cards from a new arrival that seemed interesting to this collector and we think they might interest you, too.
This week's picks: A quick look at six products chosen by Buzz Twitter followers -- responses from this question on Tuesday: "Q: If you could open one box that's in stock on the @blowoutcards site, what would it be?" The selections are theirs from a number of replies we got -- the reasons why they are worthy are mine.

PICKED BY BILLY ANDERSON aka @BAN0VA
The Box: 2019 Topps Heritage High Number baseball cards
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This one is pretty obvious as to why it was picked -- it's loaded with MLB Rookie Cards and autographs for those guys as well as some legends from today as well as the past. Ink isn't found in every single box but you won't care if you land a Hank Aaron, Pete Alonso, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Ronald Acuña Jr., Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto, Shohei Ohtani or Mike Trout. Heritage autos are safe long-term holds, too, along with many of the other rarities you can find among this product's checklist.

PICKED BY ANDREW BROTHERTON aka @brothertona
The Box: 2011 Topps Baseball Value Box
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: These retail repacks made by Topps that year combined a Chrome hobby pack and Topps Update with one card a big driver ... your chance at a diamond card via a code card one per box. You might be shocked to hear that some of us -- ok, it was me -- ripped into these mostly for the guaranteed code cards only to learn that the hobby packs were seemingly over-delivering way more than they should have (there's just one). Of course, these days the Topps Update packs are a gimme with some rookie named Mike Trout in there.

PICKED BY MIKE-E aka @HookEmMikeE
The Box: 2016 Panini Immaculate Collection football cards
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This time I don't have to write a reason why ... Mike E. did it for me. "I'd say 2016 Immaculate football to take a shot at a Dak or Zeke for the Cowboys collection," he wrote. The rookie crop here is a big star along with the deluxe kind of finds that this brand is known to deliver.

PICKED BY RYAN RAPLEE aka @ryanraplee
The Box: 2018 Topps Definitive Collection baseball cards
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This one is high-end and, as the box says, nothing but hits -- six autographs among eight in the box. You can land some of the biggest names possible when it comes to ink and then there are memorabilia cards that are a little more different and unique with stuff like batting helmet pieces and cleats among them.

PICKED BY PACK GEEK aka @packgeek
The Box: 2017 Panini National Treasures NFL football cards
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: The Geek loves him some Patrick Mahomes RC autos and this one is the home to some of the best of them out there and there are other notables among the rookie class who can all mean big-time cardboard here. It's not a cheap box for a reason -- there were a lot of these ripped when they arrived and there simply won't be as many around later ... so those who can rip them now do.

PICKED BY JP ROGERS aka @jprogers23
The Box: 2019-20 NBA Hoops basketball cards
The Price: Click here
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: There's no box to show just yet, but Hoops is going to be all about the Rookie Cards of a few guys -- Zion Williamson tops among them -- when this one arrives. There also will be autographs to chase and a number of inserts for the No. 1 pick that will help make this first NBA release of the year a hot one ... perhaps the hottest version of Hoops ever or at least since the original. The Admiral sold a ton of packs that year, helping draw in a ton more basketball collectors at the time.
