Box Break: 2014 Topps High Tek Baseball
I can’t begin to describe how excited I was for the release of 2014 Topps High Tek. I loved this stuff when it first came out in the late 90’s. Iridescent printed on acetate create a unique look. Multiple variations of the base cards make it a player collector’s paradise. Plus, a huge list of on card autographs, make this a trophy hunters product. For me, it was a no-brainer, especially because this product includes a ton of Mark McGwire cards. So, this Christmas, I picked up two boxes and tried my luck. Here are the results of my boxes: Box 1: George Springer RC (HT-GS) Spirals Dustin Pedroia (HT-DPE) Spirals Andrelton Simmons (HT-AS) Spiral Brick Gold Diffractor #ed 42/99 Jose Fernandez (HT-JF) Clouds Diffractor Auto #ed 20/25 Mike Piazza (HT-MP) Spiral Bricks David Wright (HT-DW) Spiral Bricks Chris Sale (HT-CS) Wave Wade Boggs (HT-WB) Circuit Board Box 2: Roger Clemens (HT-RCL) Spirals Will Myers (HT-WM) Spirals Yasiel Puig (HT-YP) Blue Dots Diffractor #ed 4/5 Greg Maddux (99T-GM) TEKnicians #ed 42/50 Marcus Stroman (HT-MS) Disco Diffractor Auto #ed 49/50 Willie Mays (HT-WMA) Spiral Bricks Pedro Martinez (HT-PM) Wave Bo Jackson (HT-BJ) Wave Overall, I really enjoyed Topps High Tek. All though I didn’t get a McGwire card, my two boxes produced a couple of solid hits. The Jose Fernandez auto is an amazing card, while the Puig Blue Dots Diffractor should pay for the two boxes. |
