Saw that card over on Blowout.
Nice looking card.

I really like the cards I've seen thus far. Waiting to see some sellers let auctions ride.......as I've actually seen a few BIN/BO's that weren't all that outrageous considering the price point and that they are the first up. Just seems the bar is being set lower than I would have thought considering they look like quality high-end cards. Which pretty much has never been the case with Topps.

I cant stand that the Red Zone autos are in this product as an Auto hit. Complete BS.

As I said before, Im in this for the singles, but that is lame even on my end. It would be one thing if it were ONLY bradford, bryant and tebow, but Montario Hardesty? Thats a 2 dollar card.

My, how AD's sig has changed since 2007.

That Peterson is sickkkkk.

HEAVYHITTER · Feb 22, 2011

Congrats, thats the ugliest card I have ever seen.

Shi Guy · Feb 23, 2011

Congrats on the AP pick up.

The gold/silver foil look doesn't really appeal to me, but that doesn't mean I won't keep my eyes out for any Niners dynasty cards or some nice Earl Thomas cards.

Oh, and seeing cutout letters trend continue also makes me sad

Im pissed he switched too, wish he would go back to the old one with the 28.

Zeeck · Feb 23, 2011

Great looking card!! Guess I need to do some eBay perusing to see what's there for Benn.

Slette · Feb 23, 2011

Congrats on landing one so quickly! I know you've been itching to get your hands on this stuff!

AK11 · Feb 23, 2011

The checklist is missing Barry Sanders and Aaron Rodgers. Bummer...

Gellman · Feb 23, 2011

Rodgers is a tough guy to get signatures from. Barry, who knows.

lisu · Feb 23, 2011

I am going to buy some singles, but I am staying far away from the wax.

That one has the 28?

I'd be so bitter he signed in black. Stupid Black.

seahawks4ever · Feb 23, 2011

Yeah, it would be nice if AP continued to sign his full name:

coltsnsox07 · Feb 23, 2011

I got a GU letter 'T' of Peterson from Five Star today, it's getting ready for ebay, the one thing I don't like about Topps use of letters is they cut it off the jersey without leaving any part of the jersey still attached. It's just a big white 'T' with a few purple stitches stuck directly into the big empty grey cardboard window.

Yeah, according to the checklist of Rodgers cards on beckett.com, he has only one hard-signed card by himself since his rookie year. He does have a bunch of hard-signed cards with multiple players, but maybe he could start signing more now he is a SB MVP.

He will have to be approached if Topps wants to continue with their Ring of Honor set. Im sure he will get some signatures, it just wont be on the level that it probably should be.

Some other glaring omissions from this set are becoming apparent as well:

Dez - he could end up being the next TO with no desire to sign
Mike Williams
Arian Foster
Barry
Rodgers
Flacco
Andre Johnson
Calvin Johnson
Montana
Rice

However, they have been replaced with guys who rarely get the opportunity to be in sets:

Ed Reed
Darelle Revis
Junior Seau - Probably will be a HOF
Howie Long
Terrell Owens

etc.

Not necessarily the best move, but usually these products come together in the matter of a year plus. Topps did this in a few months. Cant get everyone.

I was pretty disappointed with the omission of Montana among the list of autos. I've seen a patch card, but no autos is disappointing.
