Wade Emsley 
Also known as: Wadeasu on Blowout Forum
Email: wadeasu@hotmail.com
Location: Arizona

Main focuses: Currently only collecting WWE cards since 2015. Sold/traded all previous MLB/NFL/NBA collections.

Favorites: I am a huge fan of the WWE company as a whole, but tend to focus my collecting on the Divas -- favorites are Liv Morgan, Alexa Bliss and "The Four Horsewomen," Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch and Bayley.

Current collecting projects: I have been attempting to complete all of the WWE Kiss Card and Kiss Card auto sets released from 2016-2018. As well as the entire 2017 Topps WWE Undisputed autograph sets in all parallels. I have completed the Blue, Bronze and Silver sets. Missing only one Green, 14 Gold and seven Black from completing the set. I also have 33 auto plates from the set. Would appreciate any help in completing these.

Buzz buys and busts a lot of boxes right here for Buzz Breaks, but one of my goals just might be to rip fewer blasters this year and talk more about cardboard that I -- and you -- might like. One way to do that? Simple show and tell -- present a few pick-ups and say why they captured my attention. Would they capture yours? I'd be interested to know -- sometimes they might, sometimes they won't and that's fine. It's a buyer's market out there with plenty of options and bargains as well as high-end gems to chase.

So, with all that said, here are a few Buzz Buys ... and this time around they're a little pricer than my normal pick-ups.

--

I AM GROOT ... 
The Card: Groot 2018-19 Upper Deck Marvel Annual sketch card -- artist: Poognasty (1/1)
The Price: $21.25
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: I did a double-take when I saw the detail of this sketch card in comparison to its price. While sketch cards can get super cheap these days -- even for full-color comic sets -- that's often due to quality of the work. This one seems like it was seriously underpriced. Groot is one of the more unique characters in the Marvel universe these days, though he's more of a merch machine in his child years vs. adult years seen here. Either way, this one was striking and I had little hesitation picking this one up. That's easily the most I've spent on a sketch card but it's by far my best one, too.
