World Baseball Classic Stitches Triple Relic (card contains peices of actual jerseys worn in a game).

The odds of finding one are, according to the wrappers, 1 in 260 jumbo packs. Not found in regular packs, period.

The problem with jumbo pack odds, though, is that they always seem artificially inflated (larger packs, more expensive, you buy fewer of them).

Unfortunately, we can't perform some statistical trickery and scale it up here since the odds of various inserts are not scaled proportionally. Note:

Mickey Mantle Reprint Relic - Normal 1:30,000; Jumbo 1:6000 (factor of 6 difference)

Career best Autographs - Normal 1:3200; Jumbo 1:16 (factor of 200 difference)

...and then you have the more common things like "Turkey Red" which are 1:4 normal packs, but not even listed on the jumbos because in that case getting at least one becomes almost a guarantee. I pulled five of them out of my four jumbo packs.

I like 6, though, since that's also the factor of difference in the price ($12 compared to $2). So we'll say it's somehwat equivalent to 1:1560 normal packs.

Fascinating.

Good call on the heads up, Korot. We should all remember to remind others about the PFB when we post the 30th post on a page... if we can.

[Hamish 1,369]

1802. Yes, we should all remember, but you can always edit your post afterwards if you have too.

[Larks2242 251]

1803. True, good thing we have a edit button

Irony: he mentions the ability to edit your post to fix the number, then posts the wrong number and doesn't fix it.

1806.

My MUSE collection has doubled since last month.

[nerdly_dood 26]

Here beginneth the one thousand eight hundred and seventh post.

Muse seems a bit boring to me... I prefer Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Rage Against the Machine, Korn, the Beastie Boys, and to a lesser degree P.O.D, Metallica and Rammstein, and a few stragglers.

[astronelson 339]

1808. I prefer classical music, myself, although I'm not adverse to a bit of modern music.

My Muse collection consists of one song ("Map of the Problematique").

1813

I've only heard the song they are playing on the radio around here. I haven't any idea what it is called. I am eagerly awaiting the next Deftones album, due around April.

warning! rambling about to begin...

Ok real quick. This album is a long time coming. They already wrote and nearly finished recording an entirely different album with a possible title of Eros. Then, in November of 2008, their bass player fell into a coma. Long story short, they decided to shelve it and do another, supposedly heavier album. I'm excited.

1814. More then me if not for Jake and Conner i would have no idea who they are.

[baptist 1]

[astronelson 339]

1816. I still have no idea who they (Muse) are.

BTW, thanks Porter and Chptrk for getting me addicted to Fullmetal Alchemist too.

[Larks2242 251]

1817. No idea what Fullmetal Alchemist is.

[Korot 6]

1818. I don't think you'd want to know either. You also posted a number that is 200 too low.

[astronelson 339]

1819. Fullmetal Alchemist is a manga series based around the adventures of one Edward Elric and his brother Alphonse Elric. Wikipedia does a better job of explaining it.

1820. Just for saying-it's sake, happy new year

[Korot 6]

1821. Well, there are plenty of parts on this world which are already in 2010. I can already hear the fireworks behind me, even though it is around 16.45 UTC+1 here.

Regards,
