that's kinda cool. The redemption names seems like they're limited to an extent...with the only real big one being Russell Wilson. Kinda sad, but I would almost like to get a redemption to have a shot at an Alfred Morris in the free pack lol

[trixstar]

not sure how to feel about this announcement, I like the idea of the extra reward for redemptions but at the same time not sure if the reward should be something that can only be obtained this way.

[newton615]

Awesome. Id gladly take a redemption if it means getting packs of blue waves

[m2cool2go]

definitely adds some excitement to redeeming... I for one am really looking forward to the first Josh Gordon rookie...

[jataman2612]

for once I must say I'm actually impressed. I love that they are all on card and that they actually thought of something cool if you get a redemption. Would love to get a Josh Gordon. I wish they would have put autos of him too.

[slugger3469]

It'll be weird seeing scrub redemption cards selling for more than $2 because of the Blue Wave pack bonus. Still, good on ya Topps.

[saintsfan9]

wow these redemptions will sell for a lot more now since the only way to get richardson (stl) and morris will be redemptions.

cool idea.

[WilsonValdez]

Yesssssss...All my Philly homies made it. Woohoo :)!

PS- Time to do a player draft, certain someone.

[wesnilevirus]

Kudos to Topps for doing this. I may have to rethink flipping my cases with this news.

Very cool idea Topps!!!

[trixstar]

So no one has an issue when certain redemptions being inflated just to get a blue wave pack?

[WalterAZ31]

someone just hit a STICKER Auto RC of Pierce in the box break section

so now im really confused

This could be a variation auto. Last years were stickers as well.

[hotbox]

At least they're trying to improve their redemption program, not bad

[Kodiak10]

Holy crap! The price of Chrome just went Up!

[DaBears 1985]

No Urlacher superfractor this year :(

not all are on card. The article posted says so

We have made a huge effort on this years Topps Chrome FB to focus on on-card autographs, while we have secured the majority of players and the top rookies to sign on-card, we have struggled to have all players sign in timely manner.

[Oilngo]

Wow, that is a great idea by Topps, definitely makes it better. Thumbs up for them.

i know all aren't on card, but the article mentions that they are attempting to still get Bernard Pierce to sign oncard, and that they would all be redemptions...........but then i see a sticker Auto of his

now, someone mentioned, it may be a variation Auto, but i thought those were refractors

I said this in the other thread too, my guess it that they used up the stickers they had so that there would be some live autos, and the rest will be on card.

Confusing? Yes, but at least they got some live autos out.

BTW, get ready for Bernard Pierce Redemptions being 20 bucks a piece now with this announcement. Would NOT be surprised to see this hit 1500 a case at release if they really didn't increase production.

it doesn't say theyare trying to get him to sign on card, it just says they trying to get him to actually sign because some players couldn't sign in a timely manner. I really hope they get them all the remaining ones on card though, it made a huge difference in the look last year

And yes, the variations are the refractors as far as I know

Can anyone confirm whether the above bolded players are in packs or just the blue waves?

[Ajax1723]

Just the blue waves. The ones they listed aren't in the base set of Topps Chrome. They listed 12, which obviously confused me too, but I don't see any names there that I saw that were also in the normal checklist.

I can't wait to get the blue wave rookie card of K. It'll go great with my
J Leman collection and my ee cummings cut autograph

Well, now my excitement has been severely lessened. All the guys I want aren't available in regular Chrome. Guess I'll save myself some $ then :(

Just buy up all the redemption's like a mad man!

[doubledribble]

any chance on a wrapper redemption for football?

[messier2]

Seriously Topps?! GOLD and YELLOW ref autos....really? Such a waste of color...sigh...

[chrisfaceoff]

I just saw this too. To merge gold and yellow look the same. I wonder if they goofed

Appears the yellow are gold and they messed up.

[Sushiyoshi]

Has anyone seen any redemptions in retail?
