That would be my vote. Of course Topps could spin off MC Lite with the sets and year end complete set without the pre-sales.

Everyone worries about watering it down, but the image of an exclusive insider's club is a turnoff for many. If they do shut down new memberships, it gives members way too much of an advantage for years to come. I'm a member and will obviously renew, but don't think a total closeout of new members is a good thing for the hobby as a whole.

I think there is a chance for more than just a few. Lots of their properties could get the Sapphire treatment. Star Wars, Mars Attacks, Bundesliga, MLS, Formula 1, Muhammad Ali, Olympics, Tennis, Garbage Pail Kids (again), Wacky Packages, and the WWE could all be nice surprises coming.

That's right. What about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Does Topps still have the license for that? After getting the TMNT license back in 2019 I can only remember them using it on one product. Turtles Sapphire Edition!

Is there something I should follow? Like a Twitter handle or something along those lines?

LOL, have you met Topps? They will allow a certain % increase in members and then increase print runs of future releases. The card companies have been surprisingly disciplined to this point re: not meeting demand. But there is money on the table.

Topps should make the membership auto-renew,

If you don't want it, uncheck the auto-renew option!!

Gonna beat this drum again...

Topps should introduce Wheeler's idea of a Membership Marketplace.

You can sell your membership to someone else through Topps.com. Topps gets a cut for every transaction while the membership numbers stay the same.

Topps can even increase the benefits of the membership, making it more valuable =)

I support this idea. Make the default to auto-renew -- I think there would be more complaints if their membership was not renewed that accidentally renewed

You trust Topps to get that right?

Bowman 1st has never been a MC pre-sale product and was not advertised as one.

Should have had a first shot at it which is the entire point of the club not to just spring them up on the website at random with zero warning

Yeah, I have to say - as an MC member who just missed this drop, I appreciate that something nice is available to everyone once in a while.

Not the entire point of the club at all. They didn't even do it at all the first year.

Wrong. If it was a complete disaster nobody would have renewed or started new memberships. I liked the first year myself.
