Cool Brodeur in the mail

[gobuffalo2331]

Really nice Brodeur in the mail these are really hard to find.

1995-96 Ultra Padmen Gold Medallion version - why are these so rare? I can't remember ever seeing another Brodeur although I'm sure there's several out there.

Very nice Brodeur! the regular version of Pad Men were 1:36 packs,they never released insert ratios for the Gold Medallion parallels but the other regular inserts in the set Premier Pivots,Red Lighters,etc fell at a much more generous rate of insertion.the Gold Medallion versions of those are more common due to the insert ratio given on the standard versions.the Pad men were the "Big" hit back in the day,if you can believe that,and the parallel version has always been in high demand.i can say from experience that Fleer was all over the place when inserting the Gold Medallion parallels,some boxes contained 2-4 and other boxes had 0. ahhh the good 'ol days! :beer:

good ole days is right! It was fun chasing those hard to pull inserts. Pulling one from a pack was amazing.

Awesome pickup Seth! I've seen others online, but not the Brodeur.
