Another pack had the Kershaw, even though a box shouldn't have 2 hits in it for 2020. Relics aren't worth much, but Kershaw is cool as the hit as he's the start of a generation. I don't know if I'll keep the Bichette, but I got a full base set. The Ernie Banks 1 per box inserts are really cool.

$40 per hobby box is pretty decent and actually much more realistic. I think this stuff is actually cool. Very nice cards. I am very much torn over modern products like this. I very occasionally buy new product with the idea of piecing together a set of whatever given product because I do watch modern MLB and enjoy it. However, after a while, it hits me that I could buy a solid vintage card for the cost of the blasters and hangers that I open in such a quest. If the cost were lower on non-hit products like Heritage, I might be a player. Nice stuff!!
