Default Topps Now MLB Top 100 is Live

The first 10 cards are some of the better investment rookies, imho. Starts with Luis Robert, Randy Arozarena, Kyle Lewis and TBDs. Robert and Arozeran are auto chances so far.

^^^^
The Topps Now set is 10 cards at a time so I think they weed out that list. Maybe not but if they do all 100, some weeks will be worse than others.

It looks like they are doing 10 card packs from the full 100 card checklist.

Yes, after further review, this seems to be one big set of 100 cards sold in 10 card packs. They are just waiting for MLB Network to reveal all the players.

PS: I thought it was gonna be sold in groups but I've been wrong before

They started off strong on the auto subjects first with Luis Robert and Randy Arozarena, and now going downhill with Devin Williams and Walker Buehler...

And even with Robert or Arozarena, there is going to be no RC logos since it's 2021.

I can only see certain stars parallels, a decent auto or the sets selling. Singles will not sell, imho.
Best to All,

I'm in for picking up all of the Yankees. Pretty sure Cole will be coming up still.

Default Let me dream

It would be cool if they top off the 100 with a Trout auto.
Update: sadly the 5th auto is Alex Bregman

Seems appropriate,
Vinny

I have bought a total of 6 packs so far using coupons. $30 spent total so far for 6 packs. I’m in for that. Might as well use some of my points.

The auto subject list closing with Alex Bregman...
Some good names in the parallel list though.

Looks like 6 of the Top 10 will have parallels which is nice...why not more parallels though? Too bad the autos didn't get into the Top 10. But if there is a player I PC, it is Buehler...and I'm a fan of Bregman even if he acts like an @$$ sometimes...well, most of the time.

Grabbed five packs. And then used points to get a sixth one for $5.

Is the print run 113 or less for each card?

I’m not sure if it means packs made or total cards made. I bought 12 packs using some of my points. I figure a complete set might do well on eBay. Of course I want a Luis Robert auto but happy they are all on-card autos.

Believe it’s 11333 packs. Now some of the math wizards can figure out the PR with autos and parallels included.

Not a wizard but seems like you take away parallels and autos and you have about 1,000 of each single.

Don’t recall what the exact PR was for last year, but this one has to dwarf that.

Definitely! Final count for me was 8 packs for a total of about $40.

cj... just posted this in the Topps Now thread.
11333 PR for the MLB Top 100 packs. About 1 out 4 packs for an auto or parallel. 1 out of 12 packs for an auto.

Thanks,
Vinny
