Thanks Van for the above link!

So as we were informed at the Summit on the 9th The Living Set should be introduced today. It will be in the 1953 design (I'll add photos soon of the original artwork)
The living set is a set that will go on forever (or at least that is the plan) starting with Aaron Judge and branching off to retired players later on. I believe it is one card a week and then that card/player will never be offered again (unless they change teams). Obviously retired players will get just one card....ever. The set will have an issue every Wednesday and be open to buy for a week (like TBTs). The set will carry forward from now until...FOREVER!

(Or at least that is the plan!)

No artist info on the back of the card? Hmmm.

This is cool! Are they all 1953s for this year or Forever? Will they go up at around the same time as the typical topps now cards?

Exact questions where asked at the Summit. Yes the 53 set Forever and every Wednesday, about the same time as TBT's or Now cards come up.

AWESOME! 1953 is my favorite- super excited about this set!

Darth Bryzzo · 03-14-2018, 09:28 AM

That's a cool product concept. I'm definitely open to buying Cubs cards from this set if they are good likenesses of the players. The quality of the Judge card is encouranging in that regard.

Jeramy · 03-14-2018, 10:03 AM

The Judge card is gorgeous!

You can see some more photos on my facebook page...if you do the facebook. They are under the summit thread. Some were just amazing...

ThoseBackPages · 03-14-2018, 10:42 AM

why are these not the same size as the '53s?

these are made to order, no reason to not have them true replicas

I'm looking at the Topps Now FB page and can't find the photos anywhere. Can you post a link if possible? Thanks.

Think that would have been nice to bring up last week...I thought about asking but just figured printers are not set to the bigger scale of the 53 cards. Would have been a great suggestion.

I didn't know the Topps Now stuff had moved. Thanks for the heads up! Also, these look awesome, very excited to see weekly releases.

They are buried in a thread...but yes working on it!

Yes was a suggestion from Blowout's leaders. I think we might move the one 2018 Baseball thread back but having a section that caters to the On-Line buyers is pretty nice. You can find the On-Demand, TBT and other Topps.com products there.
