Is the auto chase enough of a chase where breakers can get enough business from gamblers buying into breaks? More power to those crazy spenders in the current economic atmosphere.

They offered F1 Sapphire back in Feb, nothing since. The 8 advertised sets were

- 2023 Formula One Chrome Sapphire

- 2023/4 Topps Chrome UEFA Men's Club Competitions

- 2024 Topps Star Wars Chrome Sapphire

- 2024 Topps Cosmic Chrome Baseball

- 2024 Topps Museum Collection

- 2024 Topps Chrome Baseball Sapphire

- 2024 Bowman Draft Sapphire

- 2024 Brooklyn Collection

So won't see any of the advertised sets until May/June. Might get a random surprise before that but probably won't be anything good.

Interesting, but very disappointing that they skipped over The Empire Strikes Back for this again. This decision will definitely save me some money.

Half decent Natalie Portman auto and you got me as a singles purchaser! Otherwise no thank you. Good plot, awful movie.

If this has on card autos of Ewen McGregor, Samuel Jackson, and Natalie Portman, it could be a huge winner. Of course, it probably wont and will be a total flop.

Last year's SW Sapphire was the ugliest thing Topps has made in the last few years. Hopefully, they spend a bit more time making this look good. They need to drop the price substantially though. I do want a Darth Maul and a Jar Jar Sapphire. The thought of chasing Boss Nass parallels amuses me way more than it should. I'm excited for this even if I might end up passing on a box.

Case being available should be all you need to know.

I think it had been announced and was the plan since last year. They are tying it to anniversaries as compared to sequential releases.

The set is directly lifted from 1983’s jedi sets.

It was the sapphire treatment that was bad. They did the entire card instead of the right parts.
