Topps Project 2020 is the worst product since 1991 Fleer

The McGwire has the single greatest campaign push to buy and still fell way short of Baller Trout PR.

It’s really really wild to see what an outlier that card is.

To them Money Bear is more recognizable than most of the players. You’re putting together a Project 2020 set because these cards are renditions of other cards that are iconic to you. There is another set of people for whom Money Bear is what’s iconic. I don’t understand why this is so hard for everyone to see when Project 2020 has literally blown up before our eyes after most of us discounting it. Just look at the thread title.

Yes, we’re focused on baseball. You’re in a baseball card forum with baseball card collectors, many of whom complete sets. If you’re an art collector and want to collect all of Saladeen’s work (cards, money bears, pictures, other art pieces, etc.) then fine- there’s probably a forum for that too.

It’s hard enough to define a baseball card set these days with all the inserts, variations, SPs, variations, etc. I like Saladeen’s work a lot but I’m collecting the 20-card Saladeen Topps Project 2020 set. Money Bear is not part of it, but do what you want.

Is Topps helping with the printing process with Gummy Bears?

Just a huge swing and miss thinking these have anything to do with Project 2020.

Man, it is tempting to start moving some of these and just walk away from it and pay off my remaining student loans with these sales

Too bad I'm still waiting on 20 cards from Topps, or it could be a clean break lol.

The Money Bear conversation is the exact one that took place yesterday. No new information, nobody is going to change their mind on its status.

Do we know for sure whether there will be a release by Topps on Monday or not?

You posted this seconds before I was about to!.....I scooped up a few low $ Rochester Griffey's anticipating a high print run for the Trout but I feel some people aren't as excited for it
