What are the odds? Topps Triple Threas 1/1 related

[hive17]

So I JUST pulled this card today: http://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/threads/113016-My-1-box-of-2012-TTT-aaaaannnnndddd-I-m-done!

I went to check the various 1/1 woods that were out, and i came across this auction:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carlos-Gonz...0971964935?pt=US_Baseball&hash=item416b3bf207


Did you see where the eBay item was located? In Madison, WI?

What are the odds that 2 of the Carlos Gonzalez 1/1 Wood parallels were pulled in the same town at roughly the same time?

Apparently, 1-in-something...

 

[All The Hype]

Crazy. Nice pull though, good to see you came out ahead on TTT this year!

 

[WaxPax]

Awesome pull, but how many 1/1's of each player are in the set....

 

[MansGame]

Hmmmmmm yea, everything I'm seeing says that's a 1/1, so he must have a couple variations...

 

[RZimm11]

Yours is numbered TTAR-35. Ebay one is TTAR-32. So I'm guessing there's at least 2 more out there of the same player?

That was my thought. Is it a bunch of different 1/1s with 4 different sayings?

 

[A_Pharis]

Yes, there are the same number of parallels for each of the die-cut variations.

So players have one to five variations? So same # card but just mixed up the saying on the card or each saying is a different # in the set?

Belle has a few now that I see on ebay and am not sure if they're the same # or different.

Take Carlos Gonzalez for example:
TTAR-32 will have one saying
TTAR-33 will say something else
TTAR-34 and TTAR-35 will also say something different

Now, each one of these 4 cards will also have each of the parallels
Regular/18, Gold/9, Sapphire/3, Ruby/1, Wood/1, and White Whale/1

Also, keep in mind that the white whales are printing plates, and correct me if I am wrong, there will be more than 1 of each one just like normal printing plates. So, you are looking at a lot of variations.

OK, so each of these are different for Belle, meaning card # in the set...

"50 HR '95"
"BASHING BELLE"
"BIG BELLE"

That's all I see so far for him but I'm assuming each will have all the parallels, etc.

Correct, looks like they are numbered like this:
"50 HR '95" - TTAR-25
"BASHING BELLE" - TTAR-24
"BIG BELLE" - TTAR-26

Also, looking at the 2 white whales that have been listed, I believe I was correct about there being more than one white whale for each card.
The second one listed looks like a Cyan Version, so I would imagine each white whale comes in all normal printing plate colors.

Wow, thanks for the info! I've been trying to track down card #s... do you have a checklist with the info? PM me it if so!

No checklist - Just checked cards on Ebay to find the ones that had scans of the backs. Both of the white whales listed have pics of the backs of the cards.
