Vides Munson

12 out 45. How does that compare with some of you folks?

Some same, some different, I think I'm at 15 but several just to not miss artist firsts (still selective, maybe woulda bought POSE/Fucci but just didn't pull trigger on time, left in cart). I do have the SOLE fly which was not really for the card. And the Jo Adell but not because of the player. That was a flipper three pack I guess.

Bobby Balenca -first player of filipino decent
the d'Arnaud brothers
Bobby Chouinard
Chris Agulia

but yeah a Tim Lincecum would be cool, coming from a Dodger fan.

I have them all so far, but that's for my artist first set.

That Banks is a breath of fresh air.

No way it prints 5,000 unless Yogi the Pumper gets on board.

I will note that Topps has stepped things up on shipping.... I now have 1-27 in-hand, as well as my AP (Blake McCutchen). I’ve been ordering 1 of each card through the first round of artists. So far 1 foil (Jonas Never- ‘82 Justin Turner).

Centering has still been off on some cards- nothing too terrible, but certainly not always perfect.

Assuming the images are real, it’s numbered on the back.

I pulled my first foil recently and I think they're overrated. I think it depends on the artist and card, with more detailed cards (aside from JK5 and BECK) looking better with a nice crisp silver frame, and more simply designed cards being better with a foil embellish.

the card looks good, but agree that 5000 would be very high.
I'll guess it prints just under 4k.

i will take it at SRP

Bummed on that Bronson design, that is exactly what I was hoping he did not do!
Really wanted him to do actual art, not the crap photoshop 420 special.

which foil did you get?

I think the card/composition/colors matter a lot for whether the foil or silver frame is better.
Seems like the foil is lost on the darker cards (eg. taylor trout, snoop acuna).

Colonel Kurtz · 03-10-2021, 11:02 AM

This could print bigger than some think. First Cub. Mister Cub. And when the Cubs play in Dodger Stadium there's as many Cub fans as Dodger fans out here.

I grew up in Chicago. It's a Bears town. But there's three athletes Chicagoans idolize. MJ. Ernie. And Bobby Hull (hockey).

If there is a better foil than the OMA Ichiro I would like to see it. It's the only one I have in hand but it is a spectacular card.
