Just a heads up. I just noticed this link on Mister Cartoons e-commerce site. I've been checking every couple of days. |

Holders from most desirable to least desirable.
#1 - Ultra Pro 130 Point. Frosted edges. A little wiggle and shake. Card fits well. Back of the holder is clearly marked with the "ULTRA PRO 130" molded in. ![]() ![]() #2 - BCW 180 Point. Frosted edges. A lot of wiggle from front to back. The 130 pt thiccboii is clearly too thin for the situation he's gotten himself into. Yet he persists. Well protected, not worried. Back of the holder is clearly marked with BCW in an oval and 180PT molded in. At this point, Topps' agents in Florida probably realize that they have more cardboard than plastic. ![]() ![]() #3 - No Name Holder #1. Frosted edges. There is a LOT of wiggle waggle from the front of the plastic one touch to the back piece. The card also wiggle waggles some. Wish it fit better. At least the corners are protected. At this point, Topps' agents in Florida probably realize that they have a lot more money than cardboard+plastic. ![]() ![]() #4 - No Name Holder #2. No frosted edges. No frosted tips. I would not have noticed this unless one of my non card collecting friends had pointed it out to me. There is actually very little wiggle waggle. The card fits well. But its tips are unfrosted. It receives the same welcome that Dwayne Rocky "the Rick" Jachson would have received upon auditioning for Limp Bizkit circa 1999. Solid firm color and a fine future, but where is your frosting, where are your tips, where is your all about the he said she said bullsh!t? Where is your indication of manufacturer where your tramp stamp should be? It is absent, and so are we from your future. Good luck, Dwayne the Rack Jacksack. At this point, Topps' agents in Florida have crafted a sailing vessel from cardboard, plastic, and hundred dollar bills, and have embarked to the east and landed on an uninhabited island in the Bahamas, curious what to make of their riches. ![]() ![]() #5 - Assuming I have been snaptited here. There are clear grooves / indentations / snaps at 11 and 1 o' clock. Plastic holder is clearly shorter than all the others. At this point, Topps' agents in Florida have devolved into a lawless society on an unnamed Bahamian reef, throwing Griffey Shores and Ryan Vides cards at each other like lethal frisbees. A well placed shot to the temple will instantly send the leader of a rival clan to an early grave. "BCW.....BCW......BCW" come the ethereal shouts from behind a waterfall. "ULTRA PRO.... ULTRA PRO" is the response ringing from the canyons. As the two sides scratch and claw the lifeblood from each other's mortal frames, the No-Names watch from their solitary caves. Frosted or unfrosted, they know that the next generation belongs to their descendants, and the JK5 mural that was left for them generations before. ![]()

Well Mudflap made me look over my holders.
I got mostly early stuff in the 130 ones. But I got an unpleasant surprise and just found a Hairy Henderson. I feel bad for the seller because I bought it from ebay at a higher price. This is going back though. My first return. I honor my buys but at the same time I don't want a card with hair. Bottom left for you hair fans!

Lost any hope on getting an AP from Topps,, feels like they are sold out before they even show up?? And if you are lucky enough to click on one good luck getting them into the shopping cart... Any insight?

You have zero chance. My days improved so much when I gave up on the APs.

Well the good news is the seller sent me a return label right away.
The bad news is I think he feels I looked for an out because of the price paid. I just got to say no to a Hairy Henderson. |

Guys I just spent 45 minutes writing Project 2020 Twilight fan fiction and we are blowing each others' pubes in our faces. I should just go work for Slate instead of giving it out here for free.
