Curious about this as well.

This coming out the 15th would probably be better for the product, with the Playoffs in full swing.

With basketball coming up I don’t think they printed as much update in order for the printers to keep up

Bump, Blowout still showing the 15th but Topps showing the 29th. Assuming Topps is right just weird. Has to be a placeholder.

My pre-order status from Shopify still says to expect it 14 October. <shrug>

Tells you something that Blowout knows better than Topps about when their product is coming out.

Whole thing is weird. My Shopify pre order says 15th. Blowout says 15th. Topps says 29th. Steel City just updated to 29th. Dave and Adams has nothing up at all. I'm starting to plan for 29th. Hope I'm wrong!

Blowout now shows 29th, $210 Hobby box, $400 for jumbo boxes

So, if I were smart, I'd sell one of my two hobby boxes the first week and pay for my purchase, but I don't see myself being smart..

Hobby boxes are still available on eBay for 130 to 135.

That makes me question what Blowout knows that supports a 210 price tag.

I think they know people are addicts and enough people will pay $210.

Bingo. If ripping they are a loser at pre-sale price. At Blowouts current price its just straight murder.

Blowout gouging customers never gets talked about enough

on front page and why are they charging $34.95 for blasters? there will be no shortages of finding this stuff for $25 at target/walmart

How many did they force you to purchase? They must have made you buy a lot with how angry you seem to be. If you wrote them a kind email do you think they would allow you to purchase from target/walmart for the $25 price target you have?

Just received an email from Topps confirming that Update has been pushed-back from Oct. 29 to Nov. 12th.

The,..."good news", I suppose; Topps Holiday product is arriving,...(in theory) TWO MONTHS, EARLY!

The sheer INCOMPETENCE, otherwise known as Craptastics, is palpable!! Nothing they do (or don't do, for that matter) these days, ceases to amaze!

Same. I was never in to the Halloween parallels but, they will really stop making sense with this delay.

Yep, seems to be the norm going forward. I’ve received these emails from update, holiday advent and one other I’d need to look at my email to remember. Taking on all these license without the capacity to handle is concerning.. if you want millions of base cards. Interesting situation on the horizon. Anyone have any printing presses?

[Ajax1723]

The Pro Debut delay email will probably be coming soon as well.

Printer presses probably working overtime trying to print all of the Topps Basketball base cards.

Obviously, take the following with a grain of salt. A YT'er is reporting that his LCS was on a Zoom call,...earlier this week, with several other LCS owners and some "big wig" from Craptastics/Topps. Update is now supposedly being pushed-back to at least MID-TO-LATE DECEMBER, and quite possibly; EARLY JANUARY 2026!

Additionally, much of the reason for all of the delays & Topps' product scratches is,...well; PANINI! As most of us know, both Poopnini & Craptastics print their respective products at the same facility. Amongst the countless litigious-matters that the aforementioned are tangled in, [supposedly] there's ONE, SPECIFICALLY,...which is alleging that (by some means and/or in some form or fashion) Panini is maliciously and purposefully (for lack of a better term) "printing more than they need to",...to effectively SCREW, Craptastics/Topps, from meeting their estimated product-launch & delivery dates...!?

So, don't shoot the messenger if this is all for naught, but; it does seem (at least) plausible.

I’ll take it with a very large grain of salt.

Pretty sure I know who you are talking about and yes take it with a grain of salt. That guy is an idiot and does nothing but find every little thing to complain/rant about. I don't think he's made a single positive video in like 5 years now.
