Standard base set?

 

[Jastermereel]

Looks like it to me, but I haven't opened mine.

 

[pigskincardboard]

Does it come w/ a bonus pack kinda thing like the other boxed sets? Also, does it look cheesy or does it look like something you could maybe collect.

Is this just the 2011 Topps Series 1 & 2 set in Diamond sparkle parallel form?

 

[Jastermereel]

Looks like a regular old base set to me.

 

[Jastermereel]

This is what it looks like:

I'm pretty sure there's nothing special about it.

If anyone opens theirs please let us know if the cards having a special stamp on them.

If anyone opens theirs please let us know if the cards having a special stamp on them.

The resident Topps rep said there is no stamp. Nothing special about it - just a plain base set.

 

[Jastermereel]

It feels like the cards don't completely fill the box, because there is a little movement when I move the box. Kind of ghetto.

 

[Brewer Andy]

How many of these things do you think they "gave away"? I know any factory sealed set is worth what its worth (and recent years have actually held a pretty steady value) but think the amount of these given away affects the value of the 2011 set at all?

This ebay auctions shows singles with some sort of stamp up in the top left corner. is that on the regular set cards? It's hard for me to see but it looks like Diamond.

Thanks,

Looks like they DID stamp them.... :shock:

 

[WoundedDuck]

bust it open and sell me the Upton!

 

[mjbuchanan80]

Am I the only one that thinks it is insane that Topps awarded collectors with a set that they probably already created/came close to creating when they busted enough packs to yield 45 Diamond cards?

Where is the outrage in this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
