OK, let's see how we did here.  Actually, a lot better than I thought!  I pulled 34 more cards towards the set, which finally puts me over the 400 mark.  Set completion stands at 401/600 or 66.83%, and so far I figure I'm out just under $110 bucks total (6 blasters @ $12 apiece, plus one hobby box at $37).

Still a ways to go here, so be sure that I'll be looking for more cheapo blasters.

If anyone is looking for black parallels for their team collections, I'm at 100+ cards.  They are all up for trade, so if you're looking for someone in particular, just let me know.

Thanks for reading , Robert
