The cards all have a matte finish this year too. No gloss like previous releases.

This set is really an emblem of bloated checklists and parallels over the 7 years this set has existed.

Huh?!?!

For 2024:

100 players and 10 SP in the base checklist.

55 players in the auto checklist.

4 inserts (10, 15, 20, and 10 players).

Variation SP's (20 players)

Variation SSP's (10 players)

Got my single box in today. Topps did indeed count inserts as "hits" which isn't cool.

Auto-CJ Abrams /99 (one of the bottom 10 autos out of 55 signers)
/25 Jeter
/75 Dominguez and Michael Busch
/99 Masyn Wynn and Lawler
SP Elly
Vault SP Munson and Larry Walker

Zero duplicates in the box which is nice. Cards look good.

Anyone have a rough estimate on how many base cards there are of this?

Well last year the estimates where around 2700 per base. Being that Fanantics seems to just print non-stop I'm sure it will be more than that.

Quality is top notch on these. Opened two of five boxes. So far almost every card is PSA 10 level quality. Biggest pulls were Golden Hour Merrill /50, Ohtani /99, Elly SP Image Variation, Wyatt /75, and Alec Bohm full color 1/1. Hit a couple base Skenes already as well as all the major rookies.

Ripped 5 boxes.

Although it was fun to hit multiple parallels/SPs and an auto per box, still got destroyed (my 5 autos were: 2 x David Justice, 1 x Darryl Strawberry, 1 x Michael Busch, and 1 x Christopher Morel).

The images and conditions of the cards are nice though.

My one box was pretty garbage. No notable low numbered cards. The lowest I got was a Cory Seager 23/25 and a /75 Paul Molitor signature.

That being said, the cards are beautiful with and the matte fronts are really cool.

Is it me though that was thinking some of the pictures are what should have been on Stadium Club cards which were REALLY boring this year?

Example being the Skenes card walking out on to the field, that is a great shot.

At least you hit a decent HOF auto, that is hardly garbage. In my 5 boxes, I had autos of David Justice, Nick Loftin, Nick Gonzales and Wilyer Abreu (x2). I'd take Molitor over any of those.

I will agree that it was nice to get a decent HOF, it was one of the only "good" cards in the box. I REALLY like the cards overall though. My only duplicates were 2 base Vlads so I can't really complain on the collation.

No color variations this year was a big mistake....the color player images with black & white backgrounds in 2023 really popped.

Ripped 10 boxes. Here were my top tier autos. I did hit a 1/1.

Good mix of SP Image Variations and Color. Worst Auto was Michael Busch and probably Morel so I consider that pretty good.

If anyone is looking for color variations of players let me know I’m moving most of them.

Yeah it's such a sweet card. Reminds me of my childhood baseball days.

At least I sold his auto /25 and this 1/1 to the same buyer who was a Davis collector. Always cool to get it into the hands of someone like that.
