Wonder if we bought 25 5-box packs if we would get 1 of each auto subject? Count me in if so.

Would be cool but I can’t imagine there’s an equal number of all autos.

looks like about 72 autos per subject if an equal rate but most likely will be 10 Trout and 200 Willis autos in the product.

As recently as last year I would've been in on this. But I think I'm worn down with all of this year's stuff.

$95 for a sticker auto doesn't do it for me.

Looks like 1988 Score. :coffee:

$95 doesn't even guarantee you an auto. It's $20/pack or $95 for the 5-pack and autos are 1:7 packs.

Topps has been doing a lot of this lately. The Soto set came in a 3 box set with autos 1 per 5 boxes. Just have it so there is at least a guaranteed auto even if you have to have a 10 box set. I would buy 2 5-box sets and still not get an auto. Topps is just lazy.

Or $285 for a variation and 2 autos.

I like the concept but the execution is horrible.

It's fitting that the J-Rod they are showing isn't centered.

seanbros55 12-22-2022 03:37 PM

100% chance of being grossly off-centered with crooked stickers.

TooManyCards76 12-22-2022 04:16 PM

This was a great idea, right up there with Rookie Cup from last year, but per usual Topps phoned in a great idea with sticker autos (and some will be crooked because it’s Topps), and a truly terrible design. How did Topps screw up this badly, this product should’ve been a great set

notoriousrmb 12-22-2022 04:35 PM

On demand monthly print to order stuff is dead.

I agree. It looks like they gave zero craps about this, so I'll follow suit. With on-card autos at 1 in 5 instead of 1 in 7 and a passable design, this would have been a great product. It wouldn't have taken much. This looks like it should be Free Set #5 from the Montgomery Club.

So the checklist is just going to be a bunch of rookie of the years?

Don't insult 88 Score like that. This junk wished it looked like 88 Score

Ships in 8-10 weeks…

Essentially collecting cash in advance of manufacturing??? Trying to create negative working capital?

Topps is becoming Dell?
