I kinda like the faint nod to the '84 swooshes ('84 is also my favorite Donruss design) but they're really bordering into Topps territory with all these pointless gimmicks and variations. I'll probably end up buying some Donruss during my next Target run just for the heck of it.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508921644099472101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-69881247230118244252018-03-27T00:05:43.815-04:002018-03-27T00:05:43.815-04:00I'm patiently waiting for Stadium Club and Arc...I'm patiently waiting for Stadium Club and Archives. The only problem is that when they eventually get released, I'll probably never see it hit the shelves at my local Target(s)... and it's unlikely that I'm gonna buy a hobby box of either.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-31482525768558414522018-03-27T00:00:34.153-04:002018-03-27T00:00:34.153-04:00Underwhelming cards.

I did get an actual "hit", but I'll save that for my own blog.<br /><br />Two things I found out when researching this:<br />1) "Mike" Stanton is a variation<br />2) According to Cardboard Connection, variations can be spotted by looking at the baseball in the upper left corner. Base card has a white ball with black seasms, variations have black balls with white seams.<br />https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2018-donruss-baseball-variations-guideAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-44499745150863143652018-03-26T22:04:17.497-04:002018-03-26T22:04:17.497-04:00I actually enjoyed what I got from the Opening Day...I actually enjoyed what I got from the Opening Day blaster my wife got me 2 weeks ago. Like you said, the inserts were nice and keep it on the shelves. <br />I was debating on getting some Donruss this year. After seeing how difficult the backs are to read and how ugly they look with the black and white, I’ll probably get a few packs, but not much, so thanks for the heads up.
