What a joke. Well, there is always Opening Day and base Topps. Like it would kill them to simply keep it close to the old Topps Tek.

Once again this proves that Topps DOES NOT and WILL NEVER care about their customers!!!

I think this more or less proves they don't know what they are doing. This wasn't some release that no matter what, somebody would be upset. This was a slam dunk and they flubbed big time.

I might be looking at this a different way. How many packs of cards do you open, from high end to low end, where you're confident you'll have a buyer for each and every one of those cards? When I take a step back, this seems like a great high end product where everybody gets what they want, albeit, player/set collectors will get them on the secondary market.
If I'm looking for a specific player/pattern in '98 Tek, spending $100-150 on a box will barely yield me any of my wants. So I'd still end up looking on the secondary market to fill almost all of my wants. In this case, high end buyers will get a nice hit (presumably) to keep or sell, a parallel card, and 6 cards player/set collectors want.
I'm not a big fan of single pack high end products, but if any of them make sense, I think it would have to be this one.

This post makes a lot of sense after thinking about it a few minutes. This might be a good product to get in on group breaks as well if you can get your team/player you collect. I am curious to see the checklist now so I can see if I want anyone in the set.

If the checklist includes a Brewer not named Weeks or Braun I'm sure I'll be in full hunt mode

I'm doomed for sure. Belle will be in this and there will be 300 new Albert Belle cards and it'll be a complete mess on eBay. I'm seriously not happy about this release at all given how confusing it is and how they decided to take a simple concept and just spew all over it with a zillion side ideas and new twists.
