It releases Wednesday the 18th, there are reports of retail already at Target & Walmart. I was planning on doing the mini set but the odds are staggering to complete a set. You would have to bust 5 cases and hope for perfect collation(300 base cards 13 per box, 50 SP's 1 per box). I might get a case if the price is right and pull cards for my PC and sell the rest.
I am opening a case tonight for a group break club on Blowout. You can watch live on USTREAM [just search for mgugs46] or if I scan the hits, I can post them here if you'd like to see what a case has to offer. Should be ripping around 730-800PM EST

Now I'm looking on eBay... so far, all I can find our cards #301-350... and they are all mini's! Did they screw up and not print regular cards of the short prints 301-350? It suppose to be a 350 card set, with 50 short prints... or so I thought!
The short prints are 51 cards with a player in a different pose than his regular card. The SPs were originally 50 cards, but at the last minute Yu Darvish was added. Supposedly, the Yu Darvish SP is a SSP.

Yeah, I see that now... what the heck is topps doing??? PS. Darvish is SP #288, variant of the base C.J. Wilson card. For me, I like building the sets... and this was suppose to be a 350 card set, with 301-350 the short prints. That's how it was originally marketed, heck, even the mini set is still 1-350... so what happened to the other 50 cards??? So weird! Then again, it's Topps... not surprised!
I think I'll pass for now too. As a set builder, I am already working on 10-12 sets, don't need to chase another $600 to build yet another set. Might buy a completed set from the bay tho, they look nice.

The cards are beautiful - not really my cup of tea, but they do look great. Just finished the case for the group break, and while I would say that 'hits' are certainly lacking, the base cards themselves are really nice looking. In fact, I have the opportunity to get in on a Nolan Ryan private signing and I am strongly considering sending in his base card from this set instead of the card I was going to. Anyhow, I would imagine that the complete master set would look pretty awesome if you could do it.

!!! TRADING !!! Or selling, I really have no use for what I have listed below as available to trade as I don't care too much for inserts and/or mini's....
Saw the stadium seat relics on ebay. That would be a fun insert set to collect (If they have them for all parks) but looks like they are all numbered to 100 so it would be a somewhat expensive set depending on what the prices are after the initial offering.

Does anyone know if these stadium seat cards would fit in a regular sized psa slab? Considering trying to put the set together....

Gypsy Queen pretty cool deal I think. Not sure what boxes normally go for.
Topp's cyber sales are coming up at random it seems. Daily/ afternoon, etc.
