Not sure if it was posted yet but I just noticed the checklist is up on Topps' site for 2023 MLB sapphire. It's just the 660 cards and then the sapphire selections insert set and that looks to be it.

Anyone else have issues with not receiving 2 color parallels in their boxes? One box had and orange and gold and the other box just a gold.

This was a problem with Star Wars Sapphire this year. Make sure you keep ALL PACKAGING and start the missing hit process on Topps' website.

Happened to me last year with Garbage Pail, a few boxes in my case only had 1 parallel. Topps sent replacements after filling out the forms. Just curious if people have seen this as a bigger problem like it has been with other releases.

I posted this elsewhere but has anyojne noticed the SP list is, well, weird?

Here's the full list of Image Variations that have been listed as such on eBay:
Will Smith - multiple
Josh Naylor - multiple
Michael Brantley
Alejandro Kirk
Sonny Gray - multiple
Kolten Wong - multiple
Carlos Rodon
Alex Verdugo - multiple
Gleyber Torres - multiple
Nelson Cruz - multiple
Aaron Nola - multiple
Spencer Strider - multiple
Jeff McNeil

I also haven't seen regular non-IV versions of any of these subjects. It's early, but something to keep an eye on.

I opened my two boxes. One box had 2 parallels, the other had 4....so not any real names, but I beat the odds.

I opened my two boxes and was reminded that you will never get rich ripping Topps Chrome Sapphire baseball. Cards are nice looking but with a 660 card checklist you have to be awfully lucky to get a decent return. Could have done worse but could have done way better.

Base
Adley Rutschmann rookie base
Michael Harris II rookie base
Ezequiel Tovar rookie base

Color
Aaron Judge Walking it off Purple /10
Milwaukee Brewers Team Orange /25
Luis Severino Orange /25
Brandon Belt Gold /50
Chicago Cubs Team Gold /50

To any of you that bought TCS during the presale: was your shipping label printed on 9/7, but the package appears to have not been picked up? Curious if this is a “me” thing or an “us” thing. Appreciate it!

Is Megan Rapinoe in the product? They would probably be the chase card?

Zing!!! This is Champion's League, not NWSL or USWNT. I honestly don't know how it will do or how much they will make of it.

Do we think that UEFA women's sapphire is the final pre-sale for the 2023 MC?

OK, I am just trying to budget these drops. Typically a club year has went from whenever it starts in Nov through the following October. That is a lot of releases remaining. Perhaps this is the final year of the club so it may last a few months longer??

Or they are giving us these “extra” presales because they are dropping the other ones.

I hope not.

Definitely crossed my mind. Surprised that Bundy Sapphire has not been released yet. I know that at the Topps Conference, there was mention that a few of the Sapphire releases (no baseball) were going to be dropped. Bundy Sapphire would be a good one since it has little interest.
