2018 Bowman Big League Breakthrough rookie redemption numbered to: /137.

I was also thankfully able to add the actual unused redemption card as well. I'm really thankful to have added both as the little set. Being a redemption, I'm sure that the actual number of cards out there is much less than the /137 stamped on the back.

Glad you grabbed it actually so I know I don’t have to read a gush piece about it on here !

Dust huffers know an iconic card when they see it.

I’m with you on this one, Geoff. For the price it’s going, I’ll respectfully pass on it. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice looking card.. but for a “base” 5th year card going for over $125+, I’ll stick with the OG 2020 Stadium Club Chrome Shuffle. I think the photo looks better with the back of his jersey.

It’s just my opinion.. to each their own. I’m a firm believer to collect what makes you happy. So if others like it and want to buy it, I respect it. It’s just not for me at that price.

Totally get that take. But it's a "base" card in name only, being /99. And I actually quite like getting the front view because we already had the back view in the SCC shuffle.

Of course, I didn't (quite) pay 125+ for mine

I absolutely respect that. Collect what makes you happy! Glad you got yours for less than $125

As I've been on my Soto hunt, I've intentionally been careful what non rookie cards to buy of his.

It's so easy to buy a card here and there and before you know it, you could have purchased a nice rookie card of his to add to your collection.

It's been a lesson in self control for me hahaha

Can't wait to watch Juan play!

I'm trying to track down the 2022 Heritage Juan Soto 154 Superfractor. I have all the other parallels for the rainbow. Just need the 1/1 to complete it. Any help in finding it would be appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for sharing, usually we just see your purchases, where most of us probably think "hmm, I should look for one of those too" It's interesting to see the process when you decide not to buy a card.

What got me was the Nationals uniform. Topps started putting out Soto cards in a Padres uni (it had to happen ) and I just haven't had that much interest in any of them. They must have finalized this set a while ago, since it doesn't have new uniforms for Soto, Voit, Merrifield (3 I found that were deadline deals). Also, it's 2023 now.

I liked the image and the cards looked nice. I don't collect every Nationals Soto card, but I do collect ones that I like. I was waiting for price to dip, but it didn't seem to be happening. It went up. I would have kept waiting, but the 22/99 popped up. I think there are more breaks and boxes from Topps being ripped, so the singles should be there. In a year or two this should be under $100 for sure. Maybe a lot lower, like $30?

What I didn't realize until I got the card today was that the player image is glossy and the background is kind of matte. I like that it's a red jersey with a muted background. And there's a refractor element to the card, as expected. It's numbered to only 99 (has there been a lower print 'base' Soto card? '19 Transcendent #/100 comes to mind, lowest I can think of)





I'm only buying one card from this set, so I made it count

It's pricey but that is a handsome card.

Default **The Perennial JUAN SOTO Thread!**

This is going into my PC as one of my top 5 Jon Soto RC’s in my collection.

One of the smallest sets of Soto’s rookie year is his Flawless set. Only 24 cards produced in total for the set. It included a 1/1 Black, #/3 Pink and #/20 Base set. These cards do not come up for sale very often so when I had the opportunity to purchase this I didn’t hesitate.

I have never seen another one for sale before. I consider this a rare monster Soto.

Would love to hear anyone’s thoughts.

Congrats! That's huge.
Are any of the other 23 cards a PSA 10?
