Yeah, I'll buy a few blasters and that'll probably be it for me.

At least $299 but If I had to guess, $399+. Last year was $249 and this has an auto and Yamal craze so I could see them increasing the price quite a bit.

At least Fanatics waited a week before they kicked everyone who paid an arm and a leg for regular chrome in the balls.

I'm pretty sure Sapphire is just going to be another kick in the balls. Fanatics does not get tired of ball-kicking and neither do the people who are still buying wax at these prices.

$430. Well that shuts me out.

I would have likely bought a case at $300 a box but that was pushing it. $430 is absurd.

I'll buy singles and wait for Dynasty. If I'm going to drop thousands on another product it's going to be higher end and not stickers.

$430 a box

I don't know who this 'hobby' is appealing to these days, but I'm not one of them.

Has anyone seen word of Merlin this year? Still no mention of it on Beckett's release calendar - last year it was in August if I recall correctly?

Looks like Dynasty is close to release.

I’ve heard nothing about Merlin, stadium club chrome, or Inception still.

I've heard a few people mention a late/mid-August sale for Inception, maybe just after Dynasty

Edit: just seen it mentioned that it's early August for Inception, so a bit before Dynasty rather than after.

Edit 2: there's even a box on the story Topps UK put up today on IG https://www.instagram.com/stories/to...41977772450283

Any word on price? I see F1 is like $1250 - something expected in that range or more?

I'd guess so depending on the checklist. I'd like to buy some but we'll see.

So how long after the 24-25 season starts will the last 23-24 product come out?

According to the sell-sheet going around Dynasty is a 22/23 product so we still have that to finish off first

The only preorder I have seen for Dynasty is $14999 a case, $2999 a box ROFL

Messi in PSG hurts the product imo if they don't put him in Barca which I wonder if they can since in 22/23 he was at PSG.

There is also a French store (never used so can't vouch for their reliability) that was advertising pre-orders at €1325 which sounds more like what I'd expect, but they are now advertising as sold-out.

Yeah I'd be surprised if it wasn't in that 1300-1599 range.
