This is probably the case for most average pack or blaster breaks, but maybe I assume busting Heritage is a little more special than busting the latest baseball card offering from Topps - at times the cheesy inserts I may or may not pull in Topps Heritage are often times boring and I'm not sure what to make of the Heritage line.
2011 Topps Heritage blaster box [$19.99 at a Target] - my biggest complaint against Heritage is despite the massive appeal, most of the cards I'll pull, are base cards I'll be able to find out of someone's common boxes later.

I was kind of done with Heritage, but I'll have to get that Navy Seal card. Of course, it'll be in that commons box too.
Halladay's a newager?
Does he have a little potpourri burning on the mound? Healing crystals in his pocket? Yanni wafting through the locker room on days he pitches?
Silly name for an insert Topps.
Always enjoyed the Heritage cards myself...this years I will especially enjoy because of the wood grain background...
I guess that's what is good about collecting now, a lot more to choose from for everybody, so you're not just stuck with one or 2 designs to choose from.
