I previously discussed this product here. Today, the sell sheets appear online:
I'm sure if you click on the pictures, the checklists become a bit clearer. There are going to be 320 cards in this set featuring 230 players. Each of the thirty teams will have at least one player featured as gold cards and "code cards" to use so you can play online at ToppsTown. Eight exclusive legends cards will only be found in the starter packs (interesting that Greg Maddux is now amongst the legends). Ignore the checklist, it has Mickey Mantle, Honus Wagner, and Lou Gehrig as Red Sox players (sacrilage!!!), Nolan Ryan as a Brave, and Maddux and Jackie Robinson as Angels. Big error don't you think?
As always, the checklist is always subject to change, and you never know if there will be exclusive cards only found at certain stores. This is beginning to look like an interesting set to collect. Product arrives in stores in February.
Sincerely,

I love comments. Please leave comments!!! (Ego, hush). Just keep your words clean (I show my kids this stuff), and the comment will be accepted.
If you must leave a comment anonymously, that's fine too. Although I wish you wouldn't. I'd like to get to know the people who actually read this humble little blog.
Thank you very much.

I LOVE this. Much better than Opening day for a 99c pack. I've been wanting a baseball game set since Showdown and Topps Total went belly up too. Short printed Chipper irks me, but I'll live.
ReplyDeleteThis is one product that actually looks like it might be fun. I'm not thrilled about the name, but otherwise it seems like a step in the right direction.
ReplyDeletehello all ... the cards can now be traded on the web:
