I read TBP’s post as saying that there are rules, but given some of the artists choices to ignore them there may as well not be any.

the Primetime card is smooth af

love it

eldustino · 04-21-2021, 12:46 PM

Salthill - I realize that rules that are not enforced, really aren't rules.

My argument is more that there are guidelines that the vast majority of participants are following (mashup subject of your choosing x topps card design).

I just bought the OMA and the Solefly. Back to 50% of the set exactly. I can't shake that number for some reason, every other day or so I'm back at 50.0% purchased. #thanksshinjoy

DJ Skee releases a Twin tomorrow. It is not Kirby Puckett but said he will be doing Puckett later.

Skee has a relationship with the Twins so must be able to get Puck's family onboard even if others haven't. Just guessing on this based on others saying Puckett won't be in this project.

This is the kind of art I like. Collect what you like.

I'm glad Seto did Mantle.

The other artist is good but the backgrounds are a bit too dark.

Seto keeps it bright and cheerful.

He played against Joe Mauer in HS, so I'm guessing that's what he's going with?

I don't have Twitter so can't join, but for those who do I'm pretty sure its Byron Buxton and the soundtrack features DMX.

Drop your guess in if you want to try to win one.

Especially you TBP - can't argue that anything outside OMA is not "free good"

My wife’s desk looking good. Yes that is a bobble head of me.

Powell7db · 04-21-2021, 02:40 PM

Quick question. If you are lucky enough to get a foil cards in say a 10 pack order, will 1 of your cards just be replaced with a foil and you’ll get 10 or will you get an extra card and get 11?

I'm impressed your bobble head is able to fit into those jeans.

I was just looking at my Topps account and see I ordered a Willie Mays Futura Artist Proof. I don't know how that happened. I remembered being surprised that the AP was available when I checked but I'm sure I didn't mean to order it.

Randallk34 · 04-21-2021, 02:52 PM

People got doc ellis card? Mines still on the way, maybe it's slow cause it's a foil lol

eldustino · 04-21-2021, 03:00 PM

Now that I look, my Ermsy Dock Ellis/Shore Sherzer/Staple Judge 3-pack came before my 103-108 alcohol-influenced purchases. Maybe there is a Topps Now mixed in with the other 6 or something.

I hope you get a foil. This was my 1.1lb box with the 612XXX tracking. 3 cards in box only.

How do you know the weight? I'm using topps free shipping option, maybe that's why it's taking longer

eldustino · 04-21-2021, 03:06 PM

I don't know how to look normally, but maybe it's on fedex website...

I choose free shipping too, and if you look at the Facebook page, there is some package weight maniacs over there.

I personally don't obsess over weights or foils, but for a while there seemed to be a strong correlation between the heavier 3-packs and foils.

Yeah I don't see it anywhere. No biggie, doesn't really matter to me either.

eldustino · 04-21-2021, 03:18 PM

From the individual order screen, you click on the "order shipments" tab, then click the link of the tracking number. Then it opens in a new screen and sometimes has weight in that pop up screen.

But I have found that I am not interested in speculating what might me in the box, and I just wait for the box.

That 1.1 pound three pack got my attention because of what I saw on facebook, but alas, no foil or gold.

These are fine little arts and so I'm happy.
