2023 Allen & Ginter Thread!

[Eckstein197]

Topps finally delivered on a good A&G checklist. There’s a lot of really good names

Big ones that stick out to me
(Alphabetically)

Anna Leigh Waters - Teenage pickle ball sensation, I know it sounds weird but just look up her sales on eBay, you’ll be shocked

Anthony Richardson/Stroud/Bryce Young/Will Levi’s - Lump all these together, always good to have autos of the top nfl draft QBs

DMC - Need I say more?

Hoodie Allen - Well known musician and card collector, excited to see this

Lil Baby - up and coming rapper, good appeal to the younger crowd

Robert Kraft - Patriots owner

Rafa Nadal - Tennis legend

Scoot Henderson - NBA number 2 pick with a ton of buzz

Sarah Natochenny - Voice of Ash Ketchum, big time appeal to the large Pokémon collector sphere


Wemby - Once again, no explanation needed

Kevin Hart - full size autos I feel like are more short printed (maybe) but a fun chase

De Niro - Legend

If anyone pulls a Meek Mill auto hit me up.

Wasn't going to buy a couple boxes but now I am leaning more towards. Some of the retired players being included have me scratching my head though. Chien-Ming Wang?

They took stellar players like that to make the checklist 400 instead of the usual 350. There are some good autos this year but lots of 5 dollar ones too.

Absolutely. Would like one of his autos. I believe he’s a big hockey fan.

[sportzluvr1]

….not gonna pay more than $30 for it though…

[oldgoldy97]

I bought from BO because of the checklist. Cheaper price than others.

[yoadrian49]

Looks like some of the top rookies are in the SP list.

[Hollywood42]

Best non-baseball checklist we've seen in years IMO

Unfortunately for me, the Twins checklist sucks

351-400 is still the extended minis unless there’s a way to differentiate between the SP minis (351-400) and the extended minis (351-400). I think Topps just combined the checklist.

And he's also Brain from Pinky & the Brain! Super stoked about him being in this.

[Rememberthepast]

4 cases coming my way!

[bub838]

I usually only buy a box or two of Ginter each year but 2023 looks fun. How much of a bath are cases?

[Eric1285]

Wow, some great names on this year's checklist. I usually pick up one box from my local shop every year...I think I'll be getting more than one this year!

[ThoseBackPages]

Nice!

[bub838]

For the first time ever my wife showed interest in this hobby when I mentioned Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz (of vanderpump fame) have autos in this lol.

Pumped to see Nadal in here. Will be a nice addition

I would say 5 to 7, depending on how good/bad your case is.

[ThoseBackPages]

Print Run should be up a good amount, no?

My case last year had 6 autos including a #'d /10 Autograph Relic Book Card, which is a 1 in 15.5 case hit. It also had 5 rip cards including a SSP Triple Rip. All my rips are still sealed, so who knows what little goodies they're hiding. Maybe more autos, we'll never know.

My case also was also reasonably priced at $1,100.

Compare that to $1,400 this year. It would be great to rip this for the same price, but it'll be printed to the moon, and likely will hover between $1,400-$1,600, which is too much for A&G.

Even $1200 would be reasonable. There is some good names on the checklist but going to be a lot of losing cases at $1400ish.

Some VERY nice Cut autos in this set this go round...
