2009 Topps triple thread, the early leader for POY

cgilmo · Nov 9, 2009

I dunno about you guys

but this product has been DRASTICALLY improved from 2008

When the voting for FCB product of the year goes live in January, I expect this set to get a ton of votes.

It really has something for everyone

on the high end

I think I speak for most, when I say good job topps. Do it agian!

Definitely one of the better products, but at its price, its probably not for the guy looking to make a quick buck. Still lots of lesser name hits. But it is one of the few remaining products with nice HOF hits. Overall a quality effort, but in some ways, it is trying to be too much to everyone.

matt kemp signs a bagillion autos every year, so i don't do after all his stuff. but with TTT, topps did something different, using his nickname to draw me in!

It's funny how this hobby works. I've heard tons of praise for this product, but I can't stand it. I haven't even picked up 1 of the 100+ different Hanley cards in the set.

every product has its negative aspects

but the amazing hits outweigh the choppy cards that try and spell out weird stuff

miguelcabrera · Nov 9, 2009

i wasnt able to afford the best miggy card in the roduct and probably wont ever see it again

kentuckyderby · Nov 9, 2009

you're just saying positive stuff so that you end up quoted on a sell sheet (ie Tristar prospect plus)
just playing

links look like good stuff

Yea, different strokes for different folks I guess. I'll probably pick up a couple cards to check it out, but previous years left a lot to be desired in condition and quality in my eyes. I'm also not a huge fan of a million parallels in a high end product. To me it's basically an expensive version of Moments and Milestones, but if others enjoy it then all the power to them.

I will give Topps credit for some of the crazy bat knobs/logo patches/fold out jumbo patches. It's nice to see something different, even if I can't afford to own them.

scotty21690 · Nov 9, 2009

Booo.

Recycled product, crappy design, millions of parallels, sticker autos, high price with lots of crappy hits to be had. Bat knobs are very nice, as was that triple auto, but most of the patches are event worn for about a minute, other than that, meh.

I'm sorry but it doesn't get my vote for POY, maybe that's just me...

so much for the final sentence ------- speaking for the most of the board

ChasHawk · Nov 9, 2009

I want to see how well Tribute, Sterling, and Ultimate turn out before crowning TTT.

moxacaine · Nov 9, 2009

Great product but not for the price.

I'm looking forward to Ultimate if last year was any indication of what they can do. I'm also intrigued by Topps Unique.

All right we all know these are your own auctions. Please stop linking your auctions to get more bids. The nerve of some people.

Dude that sucks, no auto and those guys are all dead to top it off. It's not like they can have great seasons next year to help the value. ::facepalm::
