Rarest of Rare Find, 2018 Bowman

I'm not kidding ya, this is all I could find after checking about 8 different stores over the course of two weeks. What's going on? I don't buy that the shortage of packs is all the Ohtani hype. I think Topps is purposely holding out on us. Jerks.
Anyhow, let's see if I DON"T pull an Ohtani!

Exclusive Camo Pack
Meh.

  1. That's crazy....8 stores and this was the only Bowman? I haven't been tracking closely, has the Ohtani 1/1 been pulled yet? I feel like Bowman is holding out on that one...holding it back for release later in the year to keep people buying all the packs.

  2. I went looking for it too and found that only Target had stuff left. Saw a couple of blasters but was gone once I decided to buy them.

  3. I'd believe the Topps-Walmart-Target collusion theory too if I hadn't seen someone clear out the entire display of Bowman blasters with my own eyes.

    I'll take that Mitchell White camo from ya.

  4. That Red Sox Pipeline makes me sad...Chavis got busted for PED use, Groome just had TJ surgery, and to be honest I like Lin but if he's our 3rd best prospect then we are in trouble...

  5. I haven’t been out looking but they do seem scarce. I’ve been tempted to look for one pack just for the Devers wrapper. If anybody has one I would love to gab it

  6. Pack 2 was a real Mets hot pack. Why don't I find those? B^)

  7. They are tough to come by. By some miracle my Wal-Mart restocked so I was able to grab a couple of value packs AFTER grabbing a blaster on eBay. I did manage to pull an Ohtani though so that was a big plus. you grabbed some nice cards here. Good job.

  8. The only place I've looked is the Target at 30 and Eastchase. I was surprised to find none, as "hot" retail products seem to stay on the shelves a bit longer than anywhere else.

  9. I've been to three different Targets (multiple times) this past week and haven't seen any of these or blasters yet. My first 2018 Bowman purchase was a pair of blasters that were already opened by my buddy yesterday. At least I got a few A's cards I wanted.
