Topps Minis, Box 3 !

Today a quick overview of box 3 of 2012 Topps Minis ! First-up another silver-bordered one numbered to only 5 !! This time it was Jimmy Rollins of the Phillies ! I also very much like the Rizzo base card, simply because I was lucky enough to be at his debut for the Cubs during my visit to the US earlier this year (he impressed a lot of people, including me, that game).

As with box 1 & 2, this one also included 5 gold-bordered minis, numbered to 61. These were the ones in box 3........

and finally, the hit of box 3.....another relic card.....it's Brandon Beachy of the Braves

Overall, Topps did a good job with Topps mini and I hear they are sold out and only some resellers have some availability. Hopefully they will have minis available next year as well !
As I indicated yesterday, I have decided to try to complete the set so if you are chasing the minis as well and/or have some spares let's trade !!!

These are the ones I still need (after all 3 boxes): 7, 8, 15, 16, 24, 29, 58, 60, 66, 72, 81, 85, 89, 91, 93, 94, 98, 99, 101, 102, 104, 107, 112, 114, 116, 118, 123, 129, 131, 134, 143, 163, 164, 175, 181, 182, 211, 219, 220, 230, 240, 244, 245, 246, 249, 250, 252, 253, 254, 257, 258, 260, 261, 264, 266, 270, 272, 276, 287, 297, 308, 310, 311, 319, 321, 322, 353, 359, 365, 371, 374, 377, 379, 380, 381, 384, 385, 387, 388, 389, 391, 394, 396, 399, 401, 408, 410, 412, 422, 441, 442, 451, 452, 469, 487, 492, 496, 499, 501, 505, 507, 508, 509, 512, 513, 515, 518, 519, 522, 523, 526, 533, 536, 541, 550, 551, 570, 571, 578, 579, 591, 607, 608, 615, 621, 624, 627, 632, 634, 635, 636, 637, 638, 639, 644, 645, 647, 649, 650, 653, 658.

I am also looking for the gold/silver versions of Rivera, Sabathia, Verlander, Kershaw and Lincecum !

I have a whole bunch to trade so send me your want lists as well. I will probably first try to trade mini for mini to try to get this eet complete before I open my trade pile up for other trades.

Thanks for checking out my blog today !
