Where are the dual autos at?

Everyone is getting non-auto cards so far.

They are very short printed overall. I’m not a numbers guy but they will be few and far between.

This may be the worst product of the year. All crappy $10 boxes with a likely a in 1-200ish chance to hit an auto and hit big.

opened mine, got #@#@#@#@

I'm really trying to find the appeal of these cards beyond the concept of 3x MVP winners being featured in a set, but I'm not seeing it. The cards look really generic and cheap -- second-rate Definitive base cards with basic foil parallels.

And the autograph cards seem tantamount to lottery tickets.

Topps took the money and ran -- Steve Miller Band.

Damn... so it's autos or nothing here.

fabiani12333 · 04-14-2025, 03:28 PM

I can't express how disappointed I am in this release. You take such a cool concept -- a release featuring only 3x MVP winners -- and you make such a bland product.

With all-time great players from generations current and past, this could have been a celebration of the history of MLB. Instead, it was just an easy cash grab.

kyle1707 · 04-14-2025, 04:29 PM

250 a box for literally base cards

People will buy anything at any price

Fanatics is amazing company

They can rip people off left and right and the people seem happy about it

bub838 · 04-14-2025, 05:22 PM

The autographs were always lottery tickets, the checklist was right on the product page. How is anyone surprised at what this product is after we saw the 50/50 release.

imbluestreak23 · 04-14-2025, 05:30 PM

What did everyone expect hahahaha.

Thought every other box would have a Sho auto?

Haven't you all noticed how LITTLE Sho autos and Sho GU memorabilia appeared in 2024 product? Botox man doesn't want to poney up to pay for ink or memorabilia. He knows you will buy --> cry --> buy

They just like to complain over and over again. Fanatics is killing it, I think many wanted them to fail.

Many wanted them to fail, but failed to vote with their wallets.

There are autograph cards in this product? I haven't seen one. They must literally be a lottery ticket -- like, practically non-existent.

Bland base cards, too. The gold foil looks printed on -- not even stamped foil.

It's so pathetic. These are the greatest players of all time in a premium product, and the base cards are cheap looking.

It's just a blatant money-grab.

71sbeetle · 04-14-2025, 07:18 PM

We got our 3 boxes today. Made the mistake to open them. All 3 had the exact same base cards, 2 out of 3 had the same dual card and the 3 numbered cards were /150 /150 and /125.
Wish I had just sold them. We never sell sealed boxes but this would have been a good time to start

What are you talking about? Fanatics signed Ohtani to an exclusive deal last year for on card autos/game used material, etc. Going to take a wild guess that wasn't cheap. They're going to have him sign autos until his hands go numb.

He didn't show up in alot of 2024 product because he didn't sign with the Dodgers until December 2023. That's why he was the "Mystery" Redemption in early 2024 products.

What if Topps never packed out the autos? Or saving the auto boxes to the last boxes shipped?

I'm sure people towards the end of shipping will have nice autos come out of the boxes.

They are out there. Saw a red Ohtani/Schmidt hit today. Redemption.

I’m sure Ohtani and his agent agreed to a deal that dictated a number of autos per year that would make his hand go numb.

ksemmel · 04-15-2025, 06:30 AM

I’ve seen a couple autos pulled so far, all redemptions though

Tonic3 · 04-15-2025, 08:26 AM

Was out of the loop on this product but quickly watched “Packman” open 10 boxes. He kept gushing about how awesome the “hits” were and that this was one of the best products ever. I kept thinking “what the hell are you talking about?”. You’re getting one or two numbered paper base cards for over $200/box. Seemed like a blood bath to me but I’m sure he has cases of it he wants to sell though group breaks so he needs to talk it up. It’s so transparent and pathetic.

He's become really pathetic over the years, he pulls that with every product he opens pretty much.

I'd love to know what kind of money Ohtani can demand for his autographs.
