Pack Break: 2010 Topps National Chicle

As part of my anniversary present, my wife got me 3 packs of cards (2010 Topps National Chicle, 2010 Topps Allen & Ginter, and 2010 Topps Series 2). Here is the pack of 2010 Topps National Chicle. The Ruth is probably the best card in the pack, but I really like the Mel Ott.

Box Break: 2010 Topps National Chicle Retail Blaster

I had some time to kill on Saturday, so I picked up a 2010 Topps National Chicle Retail Blaster at Target. The blaster has 8 packs, oops sorry "7 packs plus one extra pack".  Not sure how I feel about National Chicle. Some of the cards are awesome and then some are just awful. I definitely like the retro stars the best. Here are the contents of my 8 packs. I will identify my favorite card out of each pack.
