2014 Bowman blaster recap #1 of 5

I got an e-mail with 50% off to Topps.com and picked up five blasters, which came to $57.33 shipped after the discount - it's not like blaster boxes are teeming with hits but I maybe able to pull cards of assorted prospects, maybe a random parallel/insert or even an autograph.

It's probably not a good thing to copy what others are doing, but I read about discount blaster breaks all the time and at least 2014 Bowman is somewhat new - as opposed to some 'oddball' blaster boxes sitting on retail shelves of a big box store's trading card section for the better part of a year.
