Agree with this. Acuna, Guerrero Jr, etc would be nice pulls, but they've all had numerous cards in other products already. I don't think we see another crazy on this product this year. Popular? Sure, I like the cards visually. But no Ohtani equivalent is going to be a big deal

Sure hope everyone is right. Maybe I will find some this year at the MSRP!

Amed Rosario
Clint Frazier
Ohtani
Rafael Devers
Rhys Hoskins
Ozzie Albies

Take it to the bank...

All these doomsayers make me chuckle, every time.

StevenTormollan · 05-15-2018, 12:26 PM

At $15 a box this stuff is a no-brainer win. Whether you're busting/selling, busting/grading or just flipping the sealed boxes for profit.

Whoever has something bad to say about this stuff @ its MSRP of $14.99 doesn't like money.

Hollywood42 · 05-15-2018, 12:28 PM

I certainly don't think it will be a bad product by any means. I'm hoping to be able to find a lot of these. But who would carry the product to the extent Ohtani did last year?

Wrong.

Even without those names, Mega was a deal at 14.99/box.

While it will likely not be near as good, it will still likely increase in price on the secondary market.

anusinha · 05-15-2018, 12:52 PM

This is a fantastic deal at SRP, we will have to see breaks in action to see how much more it will jump. The checklist is likely a bit weaker than last years.

ThoseBackPages · 05-15-2018, 12:56 PM

no brainer buy at $14.99

YUP.

There are no guarantees in this world, but this is pretty damn close.

blackbears86 · 05-15-2018, 01:09 PM

ThoseBackPages · 05-15-2018, 01:10 PM

It is Target - so it will not show up on that date at every target - and I suspect it may be early at some.

tribefan26 · 05-15-2018, 01:52 PM

I wonder if they’ve planned the limited release, unexplained delay and re-release later in the year year?

My Target restocks on Monday's. So hopefully I get them a few days early. Otherwise it'll be the following week.

Need to know the odds to figure that out. The number of variations and parallels doesn't tell us anything because it could be twice as hard to hit color. Based off of other products I would guess an increase of around 25% but there's no way of knowing until odds come out.

notoriousrmb · 05-15-2018, 02:17 PM

Not seeing the draw this year. Won't have an Ohtani like 1st card, sure you may hit some rare parallel and these will certainly be a fun rip at $15, but no way will prices jump like they did last year.

Still going to be easy to buy these up at $15 and flip for $25 in a few weeks.

cj828282 · 05-15-2018, 02:21 PM

Any way Topps throws us a Tim Tebow in this or wait until BC?

$15 + tax, to flip for $25? Not worth the effort
