2020 Topps Star Wars The Mandalorian Season 1 - Page 8

Vargaman · 11-03-2020, 09:47 AM

It’ll be interesting to see with Stellar if they pull back on Esposito and Carano or if we get another /99 or /50 at least from them.

I’m waiting to pick up any autos since these are stickers and I want to see the signers list from MW first to see who isn’t in there. Plus the prices will keep trickling down which is good for collectors.

I think the final count is 988 hobby cases

You would think you could use the Beskar Armor Metal parallel cards to determine the print run, because they are hobby only, however Topps is holding back about 3, so that messes up the calculation slightly.

The best card to use is the Black Medallion, because only 1 of the 25 are in hobby.
The odds are 1 in 83,013, which comes out to be 988.3 cases.

Hey quick question, I haven't been following this at all. Are all of these autos on sticker?

Pretty sure they are. Sometimes you get a nice surprise with redemptions but sometimes you don't get the redemption at all.

I did not buy any boxes just because all material looked to show soft signed cards.

Can’t wait cards look great

Darn good thing too.

After the debacle that was Episodes 8 & 9, they'd be holding on by a shoestring if it wasn't for the Mandalorian!! Well, in all honesty, even with this GEM of a series, they kind of still are!

Imagine if this turned out like the Solo cards.

DOA!

I’d like to know the roadblocks that go into making a set:
Actors unwilling to sign
Disney interference
Signers not signing after all or not returning cards

But then also how they determine the insertion rate of signers:
# of preorders
Cost per auto
Signer unwilling to sign over X copies
Artificially SP’ing to keep the “chase” up for future sets

I still wonder if Solo was something Disney forced them to drop at movie premiere date or if Topps couldn’t wait til the DVD release. The Maul “spoiler” could’ve been a mystery redemption and I think Topps said they weren’t told in advance enough to even get Witwer or Park to sign. And Alden showed up as a signer eventually so did Disney say they couldn’t use him or did he change his mind? Lots of unknowns.

I work with a large dist

Not a little place that claims to be a dist

And my dist does not have the product and does not know where it is

Lol

Meaning they are not getting what they ordered, or its just a logistic issue/delayed from Topps?

I know you're talking about cards, but some would say your comments apply to the SW franchise in general!

bustsomewax · 11-03-2020, 01:35 PM

Busted 1 of 2 cases. I think I did ok? This is my first SW product.

Oooh that dual is juicy! Nice work, yeah I'd say you did very well! Too bad on the auto duplicates but there are many worse autos you could get duplicates of!

jdhaugh11 · 11-03-2020, 01:38 PM

So it looks like you did get an auto or sketch per box, plus 4 additional hits.
Is that how the box break occurred?

16 hits in 2 boxes, not bad at all. Amazing dual and great case! Shame on the 3 Dr. Pershing. I like the medallions.

Yep, that's correct. Either one auto or sketch per tin, usually one to two #d number per tin, and a blue or purple per pack.

thx for sharing your break! Congrats on the dual!

bustsomewax · 11-03-2020, 10:46 PM

I just popped open case #2, best hit was a Cara Dune Gold Auto /10

I will post results tomorrow sometime, but not as good as the first case, still solid though.

marvelfan2019 · 11-03-2020, 11:51 PM

Will be interesting to see someone post blaster odds or open some.

Curious if you have the chance to hit anything other than a medallion in there and what to expect per blaster case based on the odds.

So has anyone seen what the prop relic (s) are that are on the wrapper?
I’ve seen a good amount of the source material but no prop yet

On the wrapper odds it lists both prop relics and sourced fabric relics.
