Target finally had some blasters today. I got a box of 206 and a box of Goodwin. This has led to a thought that, since both are practically the same product, which one will come out on top?
We'll start with the Goodwin box, because that's the box I have the lowest expectations for

The verdict? I got a game used out of Goodwin, but I also got a lot of crappy non-baseball players. 206 had a great design and a lot more rookies, but no Game used
The winner is- TOPPS 206!!!
BTW- Wantlists will be up later tonight.
"Micah Owings, worst pitching hitter in the game" also works. :P
