Was posted earlier today on Beckett. I know Topps said they would include Strasburg in all releases this year...but holy hell on this one!

How much will a box cost?

Dayum.

expect presells to be up 15% more than they would be without him in it lol

Some of those mock ups are on card, and some aren't. I wonder if that's how it will be.

All In Cards · Jul 17, 2010

would love for them to go back to all on card

I know TTT will have some on card autos

I really dig the design of the Sandberg card.The backround is bad ass.

Ill End Up Paying Top Dollar For A Box, and Get a Crappy No Color Jersey Patch, ::facepalm::

HAHA I just noticed its for Sterling. Needless to say this product looks exactly like TTT cards.

Topps, it works like this:
Companies try to make lower end products "look better" and "feel better" by copying high end luxury products as closely as possible.

For instance, Hyundai cars look more and more like Lexus at a much lower price.

So why would you make $300 per pack cards (Sterling) LOOK exactly like $100 per pack (TTT) cards? It should be the opposite way around.

Change it up Topps.

Wagner patch? :shock: :shock:

If Honus Wagner has a PATCH/CUT in this product - forget the Strasburg... more like Stras-who?

Also, I know they are mock-ups, but that Banks is sooooo nice... but don't the Ripken patch windows seem small compared to the size of the card?

Weres the pic of the triple GU Manny card my customers pull every year?
Or the 24 piece Ichiro that barely covered pack cost?
Or a Tom Gorzelanny auto triple gu?
Or a Brad Nelson triple auto "rc"

If you thought this product was overpriced from the start, wait until word gets out now.

Worst product to open, best product to buy singles from.

Dude you are thinking Triple Threads but don't let me stop you from ranting and raving.

donrusscrusademan · Jul 17, 2010

wait, is this Sterling, TT, or Unique? :|

...and Topps said having only 1 card company would be good for the hobby :?

PaulKonerkbro · Jul 17, 2010

I wish they showed us a Strasburg preview.

coltsnsox07 · Jul 17, 2010

"Rookie Phenoms" is a new box theme w/ Strasburg and Heyward as the only current rookies in it, so look for those unopened boxes on ebay! Someone's going to buy one for $1000 or so and possibly get a 5 piece bat jersey of Longoria and a triple jersey of Lincecum or something like that!

Is there any sort of player checklist?

I agree.
Ripken looks really nice, but tiny swatches.

Yeah I agree, now that Topps is the only game in town they can get a thousand cards out of a jersey instead of 500.

Topps Sterling hasn't been worth a crap since they had all on-card autos...2006 maybe? Just my .02

I love the card in your avatar though

Not all the players in the product are alive.
