Ordered my 2 even though I'm skeptical like many previously stated as very little info provided. Guessing this doesn't have a guaranteed auto and may have special color?? A MC release has yet to do me wrong.

On a side not was this product announced before yesterday??? I have been seeing presale for Bowman Chrome Hobby Lite.

Yeah at a minimum, I'm not ordering until they put out more info. If I miss out, I miss out. Doesn't seem worth it to me as of now.

$100--- first one I am actually contemplating not getting.

Edit--I went with it, but do feel this could be the beginning of the get every last drop out of it strategy by Topps.

Honestly given the news from last week + the increase of prices direct from Topps throughout 2021 I feel the 2022 MC may not be a slam dunk. The renewal price will be interesting.

This might be the exclusive parallel?

If those are not in the hobby/retail sell sheet, then I would imagine that is what we will get. I think that is the black/white diamond parallel?

I’m on Tapatalk. So if there’s something on the forum that shows he works for blowout I wouldn’t see it. And I wouldn’t know otherwise lol

That's encouraging. So likely that parallel in both the base and auto's. Which of course seems to confirm there are auto's in this as well.

Not saying this will be similar but the TC Platinum lite boxes contain 4 of the BW diamond parallels per box. Hard to tell from the picture if that is a mini auto.

so i changed my mind. i was 100% sure sapphire would be bad - this one about 75% - it's not a lot of money and that sample card is intriguing.

The Twitter account that posted the picture is the player on the card... he took the pic before he signed the card.

Certainly the most hesitant I've been to purchase anything through the MC, but I grabbed two anyways. Right on the border between buying and passing

On the fence as i am afraid it will be between 12 - 16 packs with no Au guaranteed, instead 4 of these non-AU mini diamond parallels per box or something and a slim/meh chance at AU

Probably not.

That said... likely yes if I see them available.
