Those aren't US releases. Yeah, semantics, but a US release is going to hold stronger than anything released in other territories.

God knows why they felt they could call Genesis a debut
Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see Topps calling this a debut anywhere. I only see OP saying that in the thread title.

Well and all those 2000 X-Men Movie cards but that’s not the same thing

Yes that was in reference to the US license moving to Fanatics from Upper Deck

"At one point" is the key part of your phrase, where are they at now? Last I checked, they were basically sitting at MSRP. So again, no idea if Genesis goes up or down but judging by most of history with these hyped-up sets, I'd be wary of considering boxes investment material.

lol, no they aren't. Nothing is going to trump Chrome or Sapphire, it doesn't matter which territory it was released. Genesis is a sack of #@#@#@#@ in comparison.

"it didn't happen" is the key part of your phrase I was responding to. I don't care where they are now, they did sell for over $1000.

It will be interesting when they do US releases of Chrome and Sapphire.

UK Sapphire Disney is selling around $1800-$1900 a box right now.

Yep, they'll always be 3rd year Disney and 2nd year Marvel though. The X-Men release will be sick

Many buyers who ensured this was an instant sellout will have no memory of nor will they care that Topps Marvel cards ever existed before. Not only are they "old", but they're missing shiny shiny SHINY!!!

Look at the 1990 Impel set. That enjoyed a HUGE resurgence during the COVID bubble. Anybody talking about it now? The only reason anybody cared was collectors were hungry for ANYTHING that could fill the void of waiting for a new release. It really was a perfect storm. The time we're in now is all about the next thing.

And I agree with bub838 above - when they do mass Chrome and Sapphire releases, those will be the sought-after versions.

Wait til they put the "RC", "First Card", or whatever badge on new cards - you know it's coming regardless of whether they had cards before.

Those generic sets with cut and paste reused artwork and signatures of ‘Spider-Man’ and ‘Hulk’? If something is a sack of %#%$& next to that, that’s pretty impressive.

lol, if you think anything out of Genesis is going to hit $38k, I don't know what to tell you.

https://goldin.co/item/2024-topps-ch...JkSW5kZXgiOjF9

Apparently the Mickey Mouse Disney 100 Chrome Super sold for $500k aswell, i'm afraid those 'UK releases' are going to be untouchable.

Oh dont get me wrong, I totally agree…much of the new crowd isn’t interested in older sets…heck much of the crowd probably isn’t even marvel card collectors at all. Many of these new sets especially from Fanatics are being used as pawns to make money and flip. Ask yourself, are all the people desperate to get into the pre-order for this that eager to collect this set of because they are, say, Wolverine or Hulk collectors…..or is it because the presale box price will be significantly less than market and it’s just an opportunity for $?

It’s a shame the marvel card paradigm went from painted, art-centric sets to cards with RC and ‘Debut’ logos on them…the bread and butter of the speculators….if that’s really what we have in store for the future. May as well discuss these new Topps marvel sets up in one of the sports sections like Baseball.

I would merely suggest that only looking at the tip top value cards isn't the entire picture.

I don’t, and I’m not a fan of either release. I’m giving an objective critique of the Topps Chrome and Sapphire sets…not a fan. These are generic sets. Compare that for example to like 92 Marvel Masterpieces, a beautiful set done by the master himself, Joe Jusko. But the common-ness of the cards is what makes them cheap.

If sales like the above are even legit, that is a game being played where the Iron Man happens to be a pawn…..hobbyists and collectors are not dropping $38k for a card like that.

Genesis is basically "Topps Black"
Best way to comp these would be to compare the star wars supers to the Chrome Black 1/1 and the supers go for more $$.

The play for Genesis is to flip them for 2-3x (or more) to the Breaker bros, and buy a box of Chrome Marvel or Disney Chrome if you want to rip a better product.

Eh, the Mickey 1/1 will at the very least. That has less to do with the set itself and more to do with people having too much money to blow.

Bitcoin is a wonderful thing.

I still don't see the Genesis Mickey 1/1 hitting $38k though, we will see.

Topps is denying the fact the site ever crashed for the release. Their stance is that “this incredibly popular set sold out in minutes” and refuse to acknowledge what actually happened. What a joke

I completed the Topps chrome and chrome sapphire marvel set. I think sapphire base singles are the most visually appealing. But some of the pictures they used suck. On the other hand they did an phenomenal job with Topps Chrome Disney. The pictures are great, vibrant and sharp. Im going to chase down a base and sapphire set once China breaks a bunch of it.

I cant afford Genesis wax. I think its ok. Nothing beats the Topps chrome disney photos tho. Forky is the best looking card hands down

Are these actual cards or will be they oversized 5x7 or 8x10 prints? The box looks like oversize and not actual card size. If thats the case, im ok bypassing this set
