There's a Ryan Mountcastle /74 up on eBay. So glad they got this right.

Does it run the risk of confusing people that some of the blacks are /10 (the rainbow foil black I think it's called) while the regular blacks are /74 or does that not really matter?

Blacks have been the staple parallel since 2003. If people get confused by them then they don't know the history of the product. Hopefully those confused by them sell low since they don't know what they have and don't figure out why they are so popular.

Due diligence with your own product research is key here.

Based on the few jumbo breaks I’ve seen on YouTube this has been printed almost as much as series 1. $200+ for a jumbo is nuts.

My Mega boxes from Topps still have not shipped. I thought the release date was the same for all SKUs but the listings aren't up anymore so can't confirm.

As a black collector, I wish they did away with all of the /10 black parallels (diamonte, holofoil, rainbow)

Well I'm very happy with my one hobby box as a Braves fan.



Spencer Strider Silver Pack
Spencer Schwellenbach Relic
Matt Olsen Black Parallel /74

And the Jasson Dominguez golden mirror variation is a nice addition as well. Put that one up on ebay for probably too much but I have no idea what to price it at and I hate listing cards at auction.

I like the look of the Summer Superstars cards. And I didn't get a bunch of damaged cards like I did in my two Series 1 hobby boxes. Only complaint is too many dead packs with no inserts or anything. Makes it hard to complete insert sets. Which I stopped doing after 2019, but I can trade them to people who still want them!

The S2 Mega Boxes are shipping June 25th. I see it mentioned on the Topps Series 2 page.

Best of luck to those ripping. I just opened a hobby case and was able to make 1 complete set.

Fanatics has to do better.

Going to vent about breakers. I will admit I break a bunch but can see the arguments for and against. Really not a fan of a larger breaker (30 case) moving Topps breaks to only receiving the parallels and getting no base. Take for instance I woudl like to collect a bunch of Sean Burke. Not happening. Why? Not only the above but then other breaks that have multi case breaks don't have his spot available as lumped into the AL Central Unassigned or similar spot.

Anyway, carry on.

What do you mean by complete set? Base set only?

Yes....one BASE set 351-700. I am several cards short of a second set.

For example: I have 1 card of Blake Snell #676 and 20 cards of Juan Soto #700

Many other instances like that. Absolutely ridiculous.
