The all lowercase player names rock....everything else about the product is just a repeat of the umpteen other high-end products Topps is going to release.

Hopefully Topps will use the lowercase lettering (and font) in other, more affordable products (2019 Flagship?).

It really doesn't fit this product though. Would be great for any non-high-end release but not this.

There are 4 different fonts on the front of this card. Kicking OCD into overdrive.

when you're a baseball player collector, and you say 'whew, thank you' when your guy isn't on the base checklist, that can't be a positive reflection of Topps baseball in 2018.

PSA to Topps: there are more people on the Sox besides Frank Thomas and Bo Jackson

Now that McCutchen is signing every Topps card in sight, I’m actually excited for Dynasty. Just wish he would have done it with the Pirates.

Cheap fun lottery ticket breaks

Player break couple years ago was 8.50 a spot with cardsinfinity, i grabbed 3 spots

1st box- Jake Arrieta auto redemption--- me
2nd box- Degrom auto--- me

2nd break was with platinum had 3 spots same price 8.50
1st box trout---me
2nd box wacha---me
3rd box freedie freeman--me

Tons of other 1-2-3 spots i went hitless, I'm sure it balanced out but it is fun hitting cards for less than ten bucks when boxes cost 300+

Dynasty was really cool in its first year, but it feels like it's gone consistently downhill since then

All that writing on the front is just clutter in my opinion.

Pretty cards. I predicted Canseco wasn't going to be in this, since they typically use patches for these high end hits. I don't think Topps has anymore patch material available for Canseco, as his last several 1/1s are only blank jersey or bat pieces.

Was that Arrietta redemption ever filled? I’ve never seen one of those cards and have assumed he didn’t end up signing.

I love the 2014 and 2015 designs, but this looks a lot like 2017, which I didn’t like at all.

Never filled, I requested replacement after a year and half waiting

Replaced with a Tony Gwynn museum auto /10 and a strata patch auto /25 or /50 but i forget the player. I'll check my topps account when i get home and let you know who the other guy was

There will be a lot more than that. Everyone on the patch auto list will have a bunch of picture variations, each with a set of /10, /5, and 1/1. There were about 8,000 cards last year.

That's why it's unique. If you're player collector(Rickey Henderson anyone?) I feel bad for you. If you like Rookie Cards, I still for sorry for you. Like 10 versions of each card.

So if there is 1837 cards does that mean there is only 367 cases?? Or does the checklist not account for multiple poses?
