Earlier this week I opened a blaster box of 2018 Bowman Platinum. At the time of that writing, Walmart’s website still had some blasters for sale. Checking right now, they have nothing. I was able to get my paws on a Collector’s Box though.
If you’re going for the ultimate 2018 Bowman Platinum experience, opening a Collector’s Box is the best way to go. Remember, this product is exclusive to Walmart. Hobby shops and online dealers couldn’t get it. Unless they went to their local Walmart, cleaned the shelves, and resold what they bought. Ripping into a Collector’s Box is equal to what a traditional hobby box would be. Of the three formats this product comes in (Blasters, Fat Packs, and Collector’s Boxes), the Collector’s Box is the only one that guarantees (2) autographs. Its also the only place you can pull Orange parallels #’ed/25. A Collector’s Box runs about $80, and inside you should find (20) packs.
As I mentioned when opening my blaster, the base set consists of (100) cards. There are also (100) Top Prospects. Each has the following parallels: Ice (Blaster), Sky Blue (Fat Pack), Purple #’ed/250, Blue #’ed/150, Green #’ed/99, Orange #’ed/25 (Collector’s Box), Red #’ed/10, and Foilfractor #’ed/1.
Ten players have photo variations: Kris Bryant, Rafael Devers, Clayton Kershaw, Cody Bellinger, Shohei Ohtani, Mike Trout, Jose Altuve, Francisco Lindor, Aaron Judge, and Bryce Harper. These are easy to spot as the pictures are much different compared to the base. If using the CMP codes is easier, base cards end in #264 and photo variations end in #303. Reds pitching prospect Hunter Greene has (10) Short Prints that on the surface look just like base. The card number on these all start with the letters “HG”.
Relics can be found, but are difficult to pull. Platinum Rookie Auto Pieces fall 1:374 packs, and Platinum Patches come 1:4,706 packs. The Platinum Patches remind me of Triple Threads.
Here is what I pulled:
Autos
Parallels
Inserts
