Topps Chrome Ben Baller Edition(?)

okumeister · 07-07-2020, 10:06 PM

Just saw this post from Ben Baller on Twitter...
Don't know any further details at this point.

Smart move by Topps, if true.....they've probably cleared close to $10 million just off his Project 2020 cards....

brothertona · 07-07-2020, 10:09 PM

So Topps Chrome Ben Baller, Topps Chrome Sapphire, Topps Stadium Club Chrome, Topps Chrome Black - jeez.

Simultaneously think we've jumped the shark and interested in the price/breakdown.

TheWrightStuff · 07-07-2020, 10:12 PM

One of my least favorite artists in the project 2020 set. But, maybe his card will actually look decent with chrome refractor technology.

PoPCulture · 07-07-2020, 10:13 PM

Checking Calendar................Nope, not the First day of April. I’m stumped.

nerdherd020 · 07-07-2020, 10:14 PM

Topps: $$$$$
Me:

That said, I'll still pick up one to flip.

CxL · 07-07-2020, 10:16 PM

Supposedly it will have real diamond cards made by him as the chase cards lol. Not kidding.

blitzaceod · 07-07-2020, 10:28 PM

Would be nice if they created an insert set of his P2020 redone with the chrome but can't happen with less than half his P2020 set done

brothertona · 07-07-2020, 10:33 PM

There are 400 cards in Project 2020, next season will have been canceled by the time the last one comes out.

Callmethevreez · 07-07-2020, 10:50 PM

Hopefully they give The Club pre sale benefits again.

Buy & Flip= Free Money, very little work

Cannot wait to see Scherzer with a platinum rainbow shark grill.

It's been a long time comin.'

His personality is really growing on me, he and I are both into jewelry, art and cards. Except the poor guy pays way more taxes than me!

ScooterMcRibs · 07-07-2020, 11:41 PM

Who? I'll pay for Ken Griffey Jr. edition, no idea who this bozo is.

Baller is one of my least favorite P2020 artists, easy pass.

djolley86 · 07-08-2020, 11:40 AM

I think we've now officially jumped the shark with cards. These new sets are so ridiculous.

Hollywood42 · 07-08-2020, 11:41 AM

This is going to be so dumb

Pacmeyer · 07-08-2020, 12:26 PM

Interesting product especially if it's neither a low-priced set with crappy parallels and no autos meant to capitalize on the moment (think the Mandalorian Child blaster) or a "high-end" box with diamond encrusted cards or teeny gold bars like Panini does.

Regardless, Topps made a wise move with this collab. If any P2020 artist personifies the blinginess of chrome cards that would no doubt be Baller.

ThoseBackPages · 07-08-2020, 12:35 PM

you guys act like this will just sit on topps.com

you would be lucky to buy a box at SRP

okumeister · 07-08-2020, 01:00 PM

Topps Chrome x Ben Baller actually seems like a perfect combination.
A lot of people were complaining how his cards looked dull with the bling just pictured on surface of the glossy cards (saw these comments especially with the Ichiro).
With chrome/refractor finish, I think his bling will work well, though of course it's not going to shine like a diamond.
