So I just got CC'd an email from BG, who told me he's managed to acquire the temporary usage of MLB and Milb licensing, for one product only. He's planning to bring back Metal for baseball (vertical cards this time), to include both major and minor leaguers. The product is to feature on-card autos for both, as well as multi-color auto patches of prospects. And he's also gotten several players to sign 1-year exclusive auto contracts, meaning Topps will have to hold off for a while. Names include Tyler Skaggs, Eric Hosmer, Jarred Cosart, Nick Castellanos, Pedro Alvarez, Trey McNutt, Carlos Triunfel, Anthony Ranaudo and Manny Banuelos, among others. The product will include parallels #d to 40, 20, 5 and 1/1's, as well as GU bat cards #d to 3 of several current ML'ers such as Pujols, Justin Upton, Longoria, Texeira, Hamilton and Man-Ram.
He's planning to release it in July. Will keep you updated as I get more info. I'm still in shock.
Happy April Fool's, one and all.
