Topps Project 2020 is the worst product since 1991 Fleer - Page 2869

kevbojones · 03-05-2021, 01:12 PM

Definitely an odd assortment of purchases for me so far.

Siff Strawberry--definite artist run
Palmer A-Rod-curious what future cards look like
CES Yelich-considering artist run
Pose Henderson--impulse buy
Claw Money Seaver (I caved and bought it) Yay Getty Images!!!!
Oldmanalan-Bellinger ( I don't know why I always fall for his cards)

Reggie: All the right choices, great execution, beautifully done, may be my third favorite card of P70, but not sure if it's going to make my top 20 by the end, so it's a strong maybe.

1. Distortedd Pedro Martinez
2. Chuck Syles Hank Aaron

May Buy Retail
Thiele - Reggie Jackson

May Buy Aftermarket
Lauren Taylor - Aaron Judge

i haven't bought a single one yet, but i'll admit that some are really nice.

i'm still debating about the Pardee Acuna, idk if i can do it, there's something unique about it, but i just can't.

i would like to complete an Acuna set though, so we'll see.

it did actually drive me to buy the Snoop card i didn't like one bit, but i grew to like it, thanks Pardee!

On his IG, Jeff Staple mentioned that his Jeter is the first in a 5 card Subway Series set. Cannot read every page, so not sure if that was mentioned on here yet. Don't know if that means 5 Yankees or 5 Yankees and Mets or 5 Players with the subway tile look, but I guess we shall find out.

I like it better than his Jeter card.

Any price info?

GumstickStudios · 03-05-2021, 01:52 PM

We are SUPER close guys!! Just a couple things to wrap up (cards, and some user stuff). The new Gumstick Studios website should be live next week. Can’t wait for you all to see and use it!

At this point I won't be surprised if an artist releases a companion card before their first Project 70 card.

1000 Sport Zonk · 03-05-2021, 01:57 PM

Gumstick that is great news!

The Accountant · 03-05-2021, 01:58 PM

PRs up. Schmidt lower than expected!

1000 Sport Zonk · 03-05-2021, 01:59 PM

Undefeated ’14 Willie Mays – Print Run 4197
Jeff Staple ’75 Jeter – Print Run 4576
Efdot ’08 Mike Schmidt – Print Run 2858

JRX · 03-05-2021, 02:01 PM

So does that mean Efdot is the 2nd most popular after distorred?

That is not even close to what I would have guessed. Mainly I thought the Schmidt / Mays would be reversed PRs. Maybe they are actually. We are talking about Topps.

Crazy that Pardee Acuna is going to sell more than double that entire 3-card day.

You are putting the Pardee Acuna at 20k plus?

I will take the under

It will attract the Project 2020 art card collectors. It will bring in the Acuna collectors as well as the monster card collectors.

That is a lot of collectors!
