That Mays is my favorite Saladeen so far and the best of the Mays cards. Can't wait to see it in hand.

These are the obvious, but there's going to be more than 3 target cards for this set.

That's a given. I've heard some members predict print runs will drop into the fall. If so, some of those cards will be ones to have in the future if this set becomes a classic.

This is a possible with other releases coming out and if other sports resume and MLB doesn't. If the NFL plays their season and MLB doesn't, there will be some serious decline for Project 2020

If the owners and players don't stop arguing over money during all of this everything will tank. I have no problem with the season being canceled if it is due to safety concerns. If it is money related, they can all kiss it.

With that being said, they will play, and Project 2020 will be remembered for years to come. I think another key to this set is getting the cards in hand and seeing how great they really are. I am so glad Topps went with thick stock and good holders with seals on them. The value will remain strong, no doubt about it.

it's certainly a possibility, but I wouldn't count on it.

But at what price.. I don't think these stay in the $30-$50 range.

At least you made what seemed like a safe call and made a profit. This hype around this product is really unique. Could be worse. I didn't buy the Ermsy Trouts because I didn't like it, and still don't. I had multiples of it in my cart for almost the duration of the release... but I still can't get over the weird thing going on with his chin/mouth/muttonchop, the eye, the hands (he only has 3 fingers and a thumb on both hands!). Artistically, I do not like it at all.

I'm a lifelong Angels fan and my inability to overlook personal preferences lost me a lot of value.

I'm so blown away that the #1 Ichiro/Baller will be a $1k card soon!

I don't think there is a single person out who would of ever thought we would see anything close to that. TBH when I first saw week one drops I figured they would resell for under $20 considering the reactions online.

I think Saladeen invested way too much real estate to his own name on the Ichiro.

Probably 1K within 2 weeks and rise from there
