These would have been much better if Robert didn't suddenly fall off a cliff.

Lux and Alvarez are waiting games. Bichette seems like he could be the best 'current' and medium term pull.

Guy has played his first 60! Games in the middle of a pandemic. If this was a normal year, you’d be saying the league is adjusting to him.

At least LouBob is in the playoffs. All it takes is one at-bat for him to hit a walk off and the hype will look like the emoji following the word "invest" in an eBay auction.

Oh no...not saying his career is over by any stretch. Just bad timing on his uber-slump. Just imagine if Baller and Sapphire were released after a slow start and him closing the season strong?

Question mark after INVEST is mandatory. Have to confuse the masses...like muscle training...r-r-right?

I've decided I'll be joining you. I've been looking forward to this product since I got back collecting and with Topps pricing heading in the wrong direction, who knows what else will provide even this level of good/bad value going forward.

Here are the odds...based on the superfractor odds, 8 packs per box, and a 700 card set, looks like 33000 boxes?

So is Topps going to drop another bomb on us and have 2020 Topps Chrome Update megas at $100? Maybe they give us a guaranteed auto for $200 per mega box.

So these cards use the same pictures as regular Topps Chrome and Ben Baller Chrome?

Got picked in the lottery and bit the bullet. And was pleasantly surprised the Topps now smart post trick worked. Instead of one box and $7.50 shipping, I got one box and a $10 Topps now Giolito AND free shipping.

If you still want it, buy on the secondary market if/when prices tank like Panini Illusions. Either way, Sapphire Illusions seems a fitting name.

I have doubts that I can win. Topps can't keep me subscribed their newsletter for some reason (I subscribe every time I log in - I get the confirmation, but then the next time I check the page I'm magically unsubscribed.) So, I have doubts in their ability to include me in mass email blasts at all.
