This year I haven't bought into any Chronicles breaks because it boasts ONE Detroit Tiger card in the entire set. Topps leads by example shunning Tigers players in sets and apparently Panini is following. Anyway, I randomly bought a retail blaster out of curiosity and a need for trade bait. I was very pleasantly surprised and wonderfully confused by what I pulled. This year's Chronicles is CHAOS. I have not pulled more than 3 base cards in any blaster. There is throwbacks to old sets, variations on top of variations and only the most sought after players are featured. All the cards look great and appeal to my style I guess with the framing and bordering they chose in each insert set. If you can even call them insert sets. If someone would have told me about the layout of this set this year I would have thought I'd hate it. But, I love it. Don't ask me why. I apologize for the crappy scans, I need to clean the scanner. Here are some examples of the rookies I've pulled.
 |
| "Phoenix" |

| Base. 3 of the 5 Base cards I own. They may be the hardest cards to pull. |
 |
| I believe these Revolution cards are retail only. |
 |
| Gleyber is /299 Hyper-Prizm or some shit. Hoskins is some kind of Holo-Prizm. |
 |
| I bought the Anderson on Ebay for $3.50. A steal for a future league MVP! |
