Aoki Football Festival - Page 3

WallyG71 · 07-02-2021, 09:21 AM

It was an easy pass at the $50 price point with a 1:3 auto ratio. I think the design is cool but don't want to spend $100 with nothing of value to show for it...I will pick up a couple singles of my PC players off eBay.

Eckstein197 · 07-02-2021, 09:27 AM

Picked up 1 box. Haven't ripped anything in awhile so why not

daktmacfan · 07-02-2021, 12:57 PM

I don't understand how something under the Topps On Demand banner can be sold out???? I know that is not the first time this has happened as it happened with the Women's UCL release as well. Just feels odd to call it "On Demand". Seemed like a rare affordable soccer rip, but the whole Steve Aoki part kept me from completing an order.

Umm.. you can pick up Topps Chrome Blasters for less than this poop, even at resale prices + shipping on eBay.

There's a cheap rip that is multiple times better than this abomination.

Got two boxes in the post today - opened one so far -
got a Noa Lang auto numbered to 5 and an Alphonso Davies chase numbered to 49.
Design of these is a bit garish

Mitch · 08-02-2021, 09:13 AM

Seeing these opened now - so glad I swerved. Yet to see a card that even tickles my interest, let alone made me sad to have avoided completely. Bricked all over eBay too.

My first thought with this was that it was essentially another O Jogo Bonito, but replacing Firmino autos with Aoki and been £15 more expensive per box.

Every box I've seen opened seems to confirm that to me.

So there is a hell...and we are living in it.

YayNJ · 08-02-2021, 04:23 PM

I did try and warn you all three months ago. All of Topps small off-shoots are 100% pure garbage.

Not sure anything will ever top Ronaldo in his skin-tight thong though. Actually, on second thought - that might be the best set of all time. The mental image of thousands of fat fingered hairy palmed Walmart camping types fingering through a set of naked Ronaldo wax is pretty amazing.

Can't believe the negativity on this, the cheapest product I've ever got my hands on and great fun ripping.

Pulled a 1/1 which wasn't bad.

That is an awesome looking card

jduds · 08-02-2021, 05:56 PM

I though these were fun, but like a lot of Topps soccer issues the collation sucks. Doubles in a box this small is not a good look. I got two boxes and one was dreadful and the other great. 1 had a Virgil Van Dijk /99 as its best card with few big names in the base. The other was loaded with bigger names in the base with a Christopher Kramer auto /25 and a Ronaldo parallel /25.

Edit to add: I hate hate hate sets that don't bother to assign card numbers. Should also note that the parallels aren't as nice as the baseball version. Seems they cheaped out on these.

One box, Dest auto /25. No duplicates.

Dazocan · 08-02-2021, 06:52 PM

I got my 4 boxes and opened 2. I really like these cards a lot. The prices people are for 1 box on ebay, I don’t think I would pay that.

Any idea on a value? I am working on a trade but with no 1/1s sold from this set it's pretty tough.

YayNJ · 08-04-2021, 06:38 AM

That's a hard one to value to be honest, I'd suggest around $70-100 on a good day?

Mitch · 08-04-2021, 07:14 AM

Use Knockout as a reference, maybe? Pedri 1/1 was $300ish last week at auction from that set. I have a Sane 1/1 from that set, and I guess $100 for that to the right buyer, so maybe a similar ballpark unless you can sell quick whilst the set is fresh in mind and get more?

YayNJ · 08-04-2021, 08:18 AM

$100 would be the ceiling IMO, you can pick up earlier low numbered Dembele autos for less.

I've got to chime in here.... the negativity is 100% warranted. Far from cheap at $50 for 30 cards. I decided to pick one up just because I actually liked the design, best card was a /99 Rodrygo and the only RC was a Knauff. Brutal and in line with a majority of the other breaks I've seen from this stuff.

mikee1186 · 08-11-2022, 09:32 AM

I don't have any interest in this, but for those that do, 2022 was just announced as dropping today on Topps UK.

YayNJ · 08-11-2022, 09:37 AM

Does anyone actually have any real interest in this?

Ten years down the line I genuinely don't envisage any one pulling out their Aoki Gavi parallels to show off.

mikee1186 · 08-11-2022, 09:40 AM

Yeah I don't understand this product at all, and I think the cards are ugly, but to each his own.

I got sucked into his initial baseball offering (coming off the heels of the Ben Baller hysteria)... been staying far FAR away from these gimmicky products ever since
