Default 2014 Topps Chrome

Anyone feel like this could be a kickass product. With Taijuan and B-Ham already in it, the potential for Abreu, Bogaerts, Springer, Owings, Schoop, Ventura, Paxton, Casty, and (fingers crossed) Tanaka, and Taveras, Bryant, Pederson, Bradley, Polanco, and Singleton on the verge of a call-up this product could be amazing.

Confirmed Autos:
Yangervis Solarte
Billy Hamilton
Taijuan Walker
Jon Singleton
Oscar Taveras

Topps Chrome is my favorite product, and I am, too, really looking forward to this year's product. Can't wait for it to get here!

And 75% of them will be redemption cards like last year.

I was thinking the same thing today... And don't forget about Travis d'Arnaud, Noah Syndergaard, and Rafael Montero!

You are dreaming if you think Bryant is called up in time for Topps Chrome, or even this year at all, but yes it should be a pretty loaded RC class

The question should be how many redemptions do they pack it with? Last year was loaded.

I DOUBT Bryant will make an appearance but if Polanco, Baez, Taveras, and Tanaka make it in this product will be CRAZY loaded

Topps Chrome is my favorite product and I cannot wait for it to come out! I know exactly what you are talking about OP. A LOT of good players should have autos in it this year!

Exactly. Not a chance in hell Bryant is called up this year and if he does it will be in September therefor his RC would have to be in 2015.

If a rookie is called up past a certain date in September they are to be considered a rookie until the following year. Take Taijuan Walker and Billy Hamilton for example, they both were called up late in September so they had to be in 2014.

Also, Topps would want a big name rookie to start the following year.

Is everyone forgetting about Syndergaard, d'Arnaud, and Montero?

Usually go in on about 3 cases of this. Funds are tight this year. The price now looks pretty good. Might have to at least lock in a case. TC is always my favorite product to bust. Last year my 3 cases were loaded. Made well over my money back and kept some nice PC cards.

Favorite product! I can't wait. I'd love TC even without the autos. So much fun to go after rainbows.

2013 had a great auto checklist as well, only problem was the majority were redemption cards. I think 2014 could be just as good if Tavares, Bradley and Polanco are called up and they start out hot.

So far we could have...
Jose Abreu
Xander Bogaerts
Billy Hamilton
Taijuan Walker
George Springer
Jonathan Schoop
Chris Owings

Most likely Tanaka would be a non-auto but it would still be a big seller.

Even with all those redemptions last year, the majority of the big names have been filled if not all of them.

I see blowout is pre-selling right now fora discount of $729.99, you all think that is a good price to jump on now or do you think it might lower a bit over the summer?

I think that is a great price. Don't see how it could go any lower.
