Topps is handing over the creative reigns to 20 world-class artists to create official MLB Topps trading cards! Topps Project100 invites fans to collect a 100 card checklist that will be released on Topps.com across spring, summer, fall and winter seasons (25 cards per season).

We've carefully built Project100 to offer collectors our most focused and premium art project to date. Stunning foil technology will take artwork to new heights, limited quantities will leave fans wanting more, and a carefully curated checklist will offer a balanced variety of Baseball's biggest names.


It kind of feels like the collision of baseball cards and art is not here to stay.
well, it definitely sounds like a collision, only neither Art nor Baseball survived.

Makes you wonder what sales were really like and how many of the cards legit sold out. Print runs were capped at 4000 I think?

I still think they should have left each card available until a true sell out. Or done it as an up to 3999 with them announcing true print runs after they finished selling and printing the cards.

I only ordered six Project 100 cards but haven't opened any of them yet because they are in their sealed boxes.

I'm still getting some Project 22 cards and think I prefer the unsealed format.

I wonder when Topps will remove the 'Project 100' tab on the top of their homepage.

I can imagine they've sold any of those SZN 1 or SZN 2 catalogs recently.

I passed on the Ermsy Star Wars card after just completing his Project 100 companion set.

I think I would want the Star Wars more as a print.

So this nonsense hype campaign for the past week leads to... Topps X Naturel? Really?

No....just no......
I liked Naturel P2020, his P70 not so much. As much as I still want/need his Jackie Robinson P20, not spending anymore $$ on art cards. I still want to dump my excess P20 & P70 stuff

The preview card is pretty good.

How big is the set and when will we see a checklist?

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me like 600,000 effing times, I'm a moron, why do I keep buying these stupid art cards that are piling up and collecting dust?!?!!?

hmmm, maybe that's the next set - Topps Project 23 - "I went seeking those old project 2020, 70, and 100 cards. It's one of the greatest mysteries of modern card collecting - How Topps continued to persuade consumers to buy these things at premium prices...

"...and now, after extensive research, here's what I've found these cards to look like...."

Queue to brand new drawn cards of the previous cards, complete with artwork representing cards marked up with piles of dust, mustard drips, pizza grease, and copious amounts of dog hair.

Nice cards. Sucks for him to be banished to Arizona.
