What’s Buzz-worthy: The Walking Dead has delivered very well for this box-buster at retail — specifically Walmart blaster boxes — but this one brought me back to reality with a standard Walker Relic. No Bullet Relics, no rare parallel Relic, no dual Relic or autograph. That’s fine given how well these boxes have been for me this year. Although this is more of a typical or average box it didn’t feel that way — it just felt like a blaster. Good boxes here feel like steals for the price. The Walker Relics are Walmart-exclusive cards so they might deliver better than you might think over time once the wax dries up, so that’s a plus.
