The third (and final so far) blaster box I purchased. I hit the jackpot!!!.
The breakdown:
- 69 base cards
- 7 Marquee Rookies
- 2 Base Parallels
- 1 Rookie Parallel
- 1 Stat Leaders
- 1 Record Breakers
- 1 Team Checklist
- 1 OPC Buyback (1989-90 OPC Jon Casey)
- 1 OPC Buyback Autograph (1983-84 Marcel Dionne)

This is awesome! The card of Marcel Dionne--a Hall of Fame player--is signed neatly in blue ink. The odds of getting one of these cards is 1 out of every 1440 packs (or so). Not only am I surprised to get this card in a blaster box from Target, but I got this after buying only three blaster boxes--42 packs total. It's one thing to buy a ton of packs and finally get a card; it's another thing to get a card relatively early on in collecting a set.
The Dionne auto came with a certificate of authenticity, from Upper Deck:

I am really glad that I bought all of the blaster boxes at Target that day, as they had three of them and I bought all three. As many of you know, I collect hockey autographs.

Wow, that is pretty sweet. Sometimes it pays to buy out the store!
