They have to right? I mean they need to release a big product to trump Topps and the contract.

Imagine a 2009 Exquisite Stephen Strasburg "1st Year" Auto Patch/99.

No MLB logo would be a bummer, sure, but that would be one expensive mother regardless.

I think it will happen, remember UD signed the exclusive deal with Collegiate Licensing.

Doubt it. They've made one Exquisite for baseball and that was half-assed compared to Basketball, Football and The Cup in Hockey. So I don't see why they'd go all in now that they're unlicensed and use prospects in their college unis as a big selling point. Strasburg, Ackley, Grant Green would be the only big sellers from the recent draft, I guess Crow, but then they'd have to actually get those guys(three are Boras guys) to sign.

Well that came out of nowhere.

Not sure what to think.....though sadly I'm broke, so I guess it doesn't matter.

I like the pics there, but would love some more information. There better be some big stars and legends in there, because I'm pretty sure they do not have the rights to most of the rookies such as Griffin - which is always one of the main draws of Exquisite (other than MJ, Lebron, etc. who I see in the article).

This product looks amazing, and it looks like Upper Deck is going out with a bang. I can't wait to see what these will sell for. Looks like an extremely fun bust.

This is crazy. If I can somehow get some from my wholesaler (who I'm not sure has even heard about this) I definitely plan on breaking.

They are poting on facebook that this indeed will release next week.
Can't believe they didn't advertise this or make the info public!

Agreed, I am 100% sure my LCS will not have any shot of getting this product in for people to bust, and Ebay prices will be off the charts, so I dont see myself busing any of this at all......not that I was going to anyways.

Do you think it is the lack of big names? They need to focus on better development and production if they want to keep up with Topps since they are without the MLB License.

The reasons I don't think it happens is, one, they've never really done a "true" Exquisite product in baseball. Second, most prospect fans wouldn't open a really expensive product if there are only a handful of prospects and only one is truly a HUGE hit. The guys that like to open expensive products and the people looking for HOF or great current players won't open because they want big hits, that aren't prospects, like MLB logos, bat barrels, autographed jumbo patches, etc. Well Upper Deck might have trouble including some of those items, not being licensed, plus, as I said, they've never seen fit to make a real Exquisite set yet. So I can't see them doing a proper product now.

I have never broken anything higher end besides BC or BDPP baseball, but I will definitely be getting at least 1 case - if not more - of this. This product looks INCREDIBLE!
