They are not numbered???

I am looking for any #d Andres Gimenez stuff out of this as well. Feel free to contact me if you have any for sale. Thanks!

No, don't believe so.

Haven't seen one yet tho.

But don't confuse these with the red Atomics /100. It appears a lot of listings have red Prism /100 but it's not correct.

Chrominator · 09-27-2022, 10:54 AM

In fact, looks like only 3 have sold on ebay thus far

But this wouldn't make too much sense bc they're 4 ~~red~~ prisms in each blue box, but out of 700 subjects tho. So I'm not sure, someone else can do the calculus on this.

So, questions:

Should we be hoarding blue boxes?
Has anyone ordered any from topps and want to share?

ClevelandIC · 09-27-2022, 11:12 AM

I think the Red Prism may be 1/1's honestly.

I've opened 10 Blue Boxes and pulled zero red prisms. They are not four per box.

I actually did a video of only the hits from 10 Boxes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjpB4pr9S0c

Anyone else build this set? I just put a big dent in the ones I needed at a card show this weekend, and am now waiting to get the last 37 I just bought on eBay. Probably going to put them in an album, as even 1000-ct boxes are too small

I think this is the perfect Album Display type set! Congrats on getting it done!

I'm just working on Cleveland cards and parallels (looking for anything people might have!) I might tackle an Aqua or Prism set some day though

Thanks! It’s definitely one of the more challenging sets to put together- Topps’s collation was all over the place (I had like 8 of some cards and 0 of others).

I’ll look around for any Cleveland parallels I picked up along the way.

Working on it still, have just a little more than 200 still missing.

As someone else mentioned the red prisms are not common. I bought a few from topps.com and did not pull any. In the blue boxes you get the same as the red boxes, 4 prisms (one blue prism). Apparently you just have the chance to pull the red prisms from the blue boxes, but the odds have to be extremely long based on how many have popped up.

Got it, thank you!

So, yes, very SSP indeed is my current understanding

I may pony up for a 10 box order if they're still avail in a week or two.

Not sure tho

Thx for the correction, I knew I was doing something wrong lol

Red Prisms are indeed super-duper rare!

The gold prism is already 1:300 packs. Now they add a red.

Rainbow completion going to be hard.

Luck of the draw maybe.

I opened two Lite cases, no guaranteed auto but first case had two, second case one. Nothing earth shattering, Mark Loretta, Matt Olson & Justin Morneau.

Moved on to a hobby case and deja vu, 7 numbered autos but nobody really great. Add insult to injury, was short an auto in one box:
Vida Blue Aqua Refractor 021/150
Mark Buehrle Base
Mauricio Dubon Blue Prizm Refractor 19/99
Deivi Garcia Base
Ron Guidry Platinum Mini-Diamond Refractor 41/70
Fred Lynn Aqua Refractor 131/150
Tony Oliva Base
Brooks Robinson Base

I guess he's the case hit
Luis Tiant Platinum Mini-Diamond Refractor 14/70
Chien-Ming Wang Aqua Refractor 082/150
Mike Yastrzemski Refractor 102/199

Being a glutton for punishment, plus the fact I'm building multiple sets I purchased two more hobby cases. First started out okay, got even better, then kind of ended up in a yawner. Listed in the order pulled:
Dwight Gooden Base

Darryl Strawberry Blue Prizm Refractor 36/99

Ramon Laureano Base
Mike Yastrzemski Aqua Refractor 75/99
Ichiro Base

Bucky Dent Base
Sean Murphy 70th Platinum Wave 39/70

& Ronald Acuna Red Refractor 5/5

in same box.
Tyler Stephenson Base
Jorge Soler Base
Ken Griffey

Junior is in the mock ups but not on the checklist

Johnny Damon Blue Prizm Refractor 85/99

Sean Murphy Gold Refractor 06/50

Two boxes into my second case and so far it's Paul O'Neill & Dave Parker base. It would be nice but doubt I'll have the same results.

I’m doing a Fergie run. None for sale though. Need to update my photo as I have quite a few more since this was taken.

Like all his other cards, I’m working on the Scott Kingery rainbow for my PC- still looking for the /5, 1/1, and elusive red prism.

I did finish off the 700-card base set though- cleaned off all the smudges, replaced the really horribly centered cards, and stuck it in a binder to look nice.

Love the rainbows here, no progress on mine lately, Super still hasn't popped up.

Hobby down to $99 this week it looks like.

notfast · 11-12-2022, 10:17 AM

The red and gold prisms are going to be the hardest to find IMO. I need those, /10 and super still.

I’m sure the Cobb super will pop up online. The others…not so sure.
