40% of the Cubs Baseball Card Giveaway Set

On August 11 the Cubs gave away packs of cards celebrating National Baseball Card Day.  Each pack contained four Cubs cards.  The entire set consists of ten cards.  I missed out when complete sets were available on Ebay and now have to get packs.

It hasn't been easy because the packs listed are substantially overpriced.  Even the pack I got was more than I'd like to pay.  Truth be told, I thought I was getting the entire set and was unpleasantly surprised when I received just four cards.

 
 
 

The design that Topps came up with is nice enough.  I wouldn't expect anything flashy on a giveaway set, but they didn't go with something junky either.

The six players I'm missing are Baez, Bryant, Contreras, Lester, Quintana, and Russell.  I'm not sure if I'll ever end up getting them.  Only if a deal comes up.
