I'm Heading to WalMart Tomorrow. Here's Why!!!

Okay, so I said I wouldn't be buying any more series I cards. But thanks to the Junkie (because I saw his post on it first), my curiosity has been piqued.

It seems that both the gentleman who runs John's Old School Breaks, and the gentleman who writes for Nachos Grande, both discovered full packs...that's right...FULL PACKS...of cards that look exactly like this in their blaster boxes:

No, not the card on the left...the card on the right!!! Image courtesy of Nachos Grande.

What??!

I've just gone on the Bay. Maybe somebody would be able to explain this, if at all. This is what I found:


The people selling cards on the Bay are saying that these cards can only be found in blasters at WalMart. Holy Alex Gordon Batman! Don't tell KO!

Could this be the unannounced parallel cards, akin to the 2007 Topps Red Backs and 2008 Topps Gold Foil cards? Why are there full packs of this stuff? Why haven't we been warned about it? And how come people are only finding out about this now...more than three weeks since the product went live??? Topps,

What were you thinking??!

Wait I know...you knew that if the blog world got a hold of this news, it would make us collectors want to buy more cards. Well you know what??? You got this one customer...hook, line, and sinker.

See you at WalMart!!!
