Still down to 3 reds to complete my Twins runs minus supers-

Nelson Cruz
Max Kepler
Jose Berrios

Seems like these are being opened at a decent rate again after a lull for awhile. I'm not seeing new Twins refractors/golds/blacks every day on eBay, but every few days or so there seems to be some new ones. Just gotta be patient!

These could potentially be up for sale if there’s any interest

Just that club members will have the right to purchase. The fact it was specifically mentioned is not something I expected.

As if Topps would give up an opportunity to make easy money. We had to know it was going to be offered at least another year. The 1994 Finest cards look nice. Without an All Star game maybe they will be an MVP insert.

Looks like the same pre-sale window as every other online exclusive this year followed by the lottery system. The bigger question is where they take the price point. It wont be $55. Do they go the Ben Baller route and $249 or a more affordable and feasible route of $149-$199. If its out the door Sapphire style at $299 or more, it'll probably fail or sit stagnant.

They need to read the room and know a 94 design or a 93 "update" won't be nearly as in demand.

I was gonna post that I picked up a Trevor Story Black... seems so futile compared to that Robert Super! Now that the Robert Super is off the board will box prices tank?

He doesn't have autos in Finest Flashbacks.

It's counterintuitive but if anything wax is more likely to get a temporary bump in price because of the attention that card will bring.

I guess I'm the outlier, but I'm glad it's going to continue. '94 is not a dud of a design by any means, '95 is solid, and '96 & '97 Finest are some of the all time best card designs and sets IMO.
