I got canvas like this one over the summer. And this life size poster at Springfield game.

I don't own that card. But I have some like it. I like how the player stands out from the all red background. I wish Topps would make the refractors look like that if borders are gone.
I like a 1987 throwback set here and there, but Topps is really running that idea into the ground. I know they made a set back in 2012. And now they have made a bunch of different sets seemingly this year. Refractors can look good without borders if the whole background has the refractor finish...
I hated last year's refractors so much I refused to buy any. This year is slightly better. But if the refractors are going to look this bad, then put borders back on the cards. Or figure out a way to make the refractors stand out again. 2018 design looks even worse than this year.
