But doesent it say 2008 topps??

 

[markakis8]

yes but its not part of 2008 topps regular issue. it's obviously some special set as there are only 5 cards. I can't locate them on Beckett. didn't know if they could only be pulled out of a certain blaster or something.

But doesent it say 2008 topps??

These 3 other auctions (not mine) should help. They were inserted in special Topps factory sets but i am a bit confused about how they were inserted in the sets. However it seems there is more than 5 different.

Not factory sets, Walmart blasters. I have some. You got five different per blaster, in a silver wrapper. The card numbering WMDP# stands for Wal Mart Dick Perez. And there are rarer refractor versions.

I think you and sebpoo are talking about two different sets. The ones he linked to are the ones I was referring to.

There are no "WMDP" #'s on the back of these cards. They are #'d "1 of 5" "2 of 5" etc.

Thanks for your info though. I wonder why Beckett doesn't have an official listing for these cards though.

Nice! Wow I've never seen the game used versions before. Pretty cool.

Looks like gracecollector was partially right on this one.
