Sunday, December 3, 2017Year: 2012 Set: Topps Update - Walmart Blue Border (Rate) “ I know most people complain about them (constantly) but I love parallels, and the changing of a normally white border to some other color just "works" for me. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Oh great, the infamous Wal-Mart Blue Border. As if there aren't enough parallel's already, we now need to distinguish by store. Has anyone ever said, "I've got the base set, but I won't be happy until I get that coveted Wal-Mart Blue?" I doubt it. On the plus side, I really liked the look of 2012 Topps. Wish I had re-entered the hobby earlier so I could have gotten in on these. ” -muskie027

“ Ah the "surfboard" set as some have dubbed 2012 Topps Baseball in the blogisphere. In general I like the set design the back like it or not is the standard Topps back design for the last decade or two. I tend to get confused with the update sets and then they have all the different parallels like this one the Wal-Mart Blue Border which is a lighter blue than their regular blue border parallel. I really wish they would stop with all the parallels and the short printed just to be short printed and annoy set collectors. ” -captkirk42
