The 2017 BBM Japanese B.League Basketball Fast Break 1st Half Set is here. I picked up a box for Billy over at Cardboard History and kept a box sealed for my collection. Billy is going to do a box break on his blog so am excited to hear his results....sounds like it went well for him. Believe it or not, the 2nd Half releases in a few weeks so am anticipating that one as well.
The latest copy of SCM came out and here is the two-page color spread:

There are 72 autograph cards in the set (1 for each player) each numbered to #115.
Thanks so much! Surprised everyone got an autograph...cool! I'll have to try and find the Hilton Armstrong autograph card as he's a local guy, from my family's home town. I am going to write up the Box Break Review today and probably post it tomorrow night. I've got all the cards scanned already so it shouldn't take me too long to write up. Fun break, and I am looking forward to the 2nd half box.
ReplyDeleteGood deal, can't wait to read it. I just ordered the 2nd Half boxes and should have them in 2-3 weeks. I see they have several Hilton cards up for sale in Japan. Looks like they are selling in the $25 range. If your interested, I could pick one up and have it included with a bunch of other cards I am shipping over at the end of Feb.
ReplyDeleteOh man... Japanese basketball? Very cool. A few years ago I was really into building my Yuta Tabuse collection. Just wished his NBA career lasted a little longer.
ReplyDeleteYuta's cards are on fire in Japan right now and definitely leading the pack in terms of pricing. I was surprised there were several ex-NBA players in this set....I haven't looked at all 18 teams, but I imagine there will be a few more ex-NBA players with the 2nd Half checklist.
