2016 Topps Bunt Hobby Box Post #2

I posted Thursday about this 2016 Topps Bunt hobby box but wanted to share more of these cards.  I'm a big fan of these so I'll just throw some more scans out there for folks to see and I'll keep my chatter to a minimum.

Again I really like the design of this set with that big logo.  That's a great looking Carlos Correa card.

A huge draw for me are the retired greats.

Pulled three of the all-time great Braves so I was pretty stoked.

Two very recognizable stances by reliever Craig Kimbrel and Sean Doolittle.

A couple of the inserts with the Unique Unis and the Topps Bunt 16 Program.

2016 Topps Bunt Hobby Box

2016 Topps Bunt is another product that really didn't seem to resonate with collectors.  Bunt was originally a digital only format but was put on cardboard for two years in 2016 and 2017.  I'm a huge fan of 2016 Bunt.  I really like the design including the big logo behind the player as well as the fact we get to see so many retired legends in this set.  I want to believe Johnny Bench is thinking "did that guy really just try to run on me?".

Plenty of star power here in the 200 card base set.  The backs have no stats and a small write up on the back.  A bit lazy but I like the fronts enough to give them a pass.

The inserts were all hits for me.  The bottom of the Unique Unis takes up too much space but I like seeing the alternative and unique uniforms.  Lightforce is probably my favorite insert of this set but the Future of the Franchise is right behind it.  Something about the look has a draw for me.

More greats from years past including all-time favorite Yaz.  So many great players from the past I really enjoyed seeing who I'd pull next.

The set has RC cards like most Topps sets. The Bunt Program inserts aren't as nice as the '17 versions but they do remind me of a program.  The Alex Gordon is a platinum parallel #/99.

That Dallas Keuchel photo looks almost unnatural but it is still a great photo.

I really like that photo of Juan Gonzalez.  I was tempted to put him in the lead off for this post.  Reggie's swing is so recognizable.  I would like to have seen a bit more of him in the photo but it is still a winner.  I enjoyed the heck out of this box.  I'll show off more photos over the weekend and I also have 2017 Topps Bunt I'll be posting about soon.

2016 Topps Bunt Baseball Cards

Topps decided to move their digital app cards to cardboard giving us their 2016 Bunt trading cards.  Pricewise these are low end cards but still look pretty nice.  The fronts have the great photos Topps always delivers with a large team logo behind the player.  I really like how this was done.  It isn't over the top and doesn't take away too much from the background.  The Bunt logo is at the top of the card while the player name, position and team are at the bottom against a silver metallic background.  I'm liking it.  A simple yet nice looking different card.  The backs aren't that impressive with any stats they might provide in the write-up.  But I have seen worse.  Overall I do like the cards and will grab some more.
