Classic Wax Football (Part 1)

So I've tried the Baseball and Hockey Editions of Classic Wax, so let's try an 18 pack box of Football! With shipping these are close to $100. 


Like any of these repack products, the object is not to get your money's worth (because you won't), rather it is to enjoy a trip down memory lane. The only way I'm "pulling some fire" is if I try to open this by melting the shrink wrap with a lighter.

I've broken this up into two posts of nine packs each. So let's see what this box has to offer!

It was fun to open, but not a whole lot of note. Some cool vintage, a 1972 Topps Dick Butkus, a 1984 Topps Andre Tippett rookie, a 1984 Topps Joe Montana Instant Replay and a 1987 Topps Dan Marino. 

The set most featured in this first half is 1991 Topps Stadium Club with 9 cards.

  1. I was wondering why the DeBerg would be considered a "troll" card.. but then I realized it resembles the Montana RC.

    These look like fun, but not enough ROI (not that current products are any better in that department)

  2. Do they tell you upfront what the oldest set is that one has a chance at in these boxes?
