As a reminder for the 2023 season, RtoD sets provide [URL="https://www.topps.com/2023-angels-mlb-topps-nowr-road-to-opening-day-11-card-team-set.html"]these bonus card conditions[/URL]:

Finally, I can quickly tell the difference from last year at a glance.

Ha, thanks. I was kinda surprised there was no platman post yet.

Remember, everyone, that the SPRING23 code or something like it will likely work on the ROTD sets.

Yes, the email says it will - but it also specifically says "base sets" so presumably it won't work on the auto sets.

If this is going to become the "official" thread, btw, here's a link to add to the "links to past years' threads and other related information etc." megapost that someone's presumably (hopefully) going to make.

Wouldn't hurt to try though....the autos come with a base set so.... The discount is less this year too. :(

Nice card, really happy that it is a fresh, new look.

Email says new and improved TN RTOD Collection...I wonder if there will be a new wrinkle thrown in this year as far as purchasing the sets.

Those 3 cards they show (Henderson, Ohtani & Judge)...freebie in the mail???

Like autos as prizes for teams winning stuff or challenges. That would be wild. First team to 20 wins gets a bonus auto or something.

Yeah pass on buying (unless prices are just super cheap). Still waiting on too many 2022 road to opening autos. That being said I like that there is a significant change to the card design this year.

A missed opportunity to repeat the dark history of Table Cloth Relic.

I'm pumped for RTOD this year. This will be the first time I'm going to be trying to purchase quickly as I'm betting the one I want the most (Braves fan) will sell quickly if they nail the autos. I know the autos always take forever, but they are reasonably priced for Topps Now autos and they are some of my favorites.

Last year they took the whole season. Hopefully this year they will not. I would also like to buy the auto sets, but I'm sure they'll go too fast

At least three teams' autos STILL haven't been shipped (Rays and Nationals I'm waiting on, and I've heard the Yankees are also outstanding).

Cardinals also haven't shipped.

Dear Platinum Members,

We hope that everyone is doing well during what has been a little bit of a quiet period here - we've been working to make 2023 one of our best years yet! Keep an eye out for email going out tonight for folks who will be part of the 2023 Platinum Member group!

Back to the baseball - the World Baseball Classic has been capturing fan's attention around the globe and one of the game's biggest stars, Team Japan's two-way threat Shohei Ohtani, went viral this past weekend.

The 28-year-old demolished his very first World Baseball Classic home run during his squad's meeting with Team Australia on Sunday. In the 7-1 victory, Ohtani smashed a nearly 500-foot three-run homer in the top of the first inning to stake his team the early lead.

To commemorate this homer seen around the world - we are excited to offer the following cards today:

Shohei Ohtani
/99 - Base relic card
/49 - Base relic card
/25 - Base relic card
/10 - Base relic card
/5 - Base relic card

Beginning today - and policy for 2023 going forward - Platinum Members will have the ability to reserve one single card before all cards/parallels go live to the general public. Once cards go live - standard quantities/limits apply.

Please email with your reservation by 12:45 p.m. EST

Thank you for your support and have a great day!
The Topps NOW team

Assuming Plats could reserve multiple cards before—was it one per variation?

[QUOTE=byronscott4ever;18754504]Assuming Plats could reserve multiple cards before—was it one per variation?[/QUOTE]

With rare exceptions, they could reserve as many as they wanted of each variation (never the 1/1, and I imagine if they had emailed and said "I want all 10 of the reds" they'd have had pushback, but you get the point).

Figures their website seems to be completely borked right now, too...

EDIT: Seems like it was a momentary issue.

Good luck to anyone else trying to grab one of these!

Wow, that seems to be a pretty big change then

Definitely not the case ;) (not mine! posted by Plat members on facebook)

Idk, I thought on the Judges it was 1 per order ... so in the time I couldn't buy any and they were instantly sold out, some plat bought a dozen? Seems unlikely.
