As jbone noted, above, Craptastics is working (as is/are other sites under Craptastics' umbrella)! Knowing the IDIOCY & INCOMPETENCE, that we frequently deal with, from Topps, could this be a deliberate..."oops"!?! As in; they don't have their shhhhh together for the release, behind-the-scenes...??

Ya' just NEVER know with these chuckleheads!

Jaypers · 11-18-2025, 09:22 AM

Sites are starting to come back up. Twitter, for one. Topps still down but I'm sure it'll be up soon.

Question is, will they postpone this or not.

I hate them, but this isn't whats happening. Topps uses cloudfare to protect their site. Tons of sites use Cloudfare. When Cloudfare is down, websites using them are down.

BoSoxFan1999 · 11-18-2025, 09:28 AM

Can't wait to be disappointed once again! Fanatics almost never lets me down in that department.

So Topps coordinated the shutdown of multiple sites just to make getting Chrome more difficult for non-Moss normies?

Fanatics rules all!

Basically.

There's a limited paint brush releasing today as well and all of those sites are down.

Thanks Uncle Rubin!

oldgoldy97 · 11-18-2025, 09:37 AM

It’s back up!

Praise Flops!

Jaypers · 11-18-2025, 09:37 AM

Back up for me too. Still showing as today at Noon EST.

Bob Ross · 11-18-2025, 09:38 AM

International Topps sites release in 20 minutes. We'll know price then.

Jaypers · 11-18-2025, 09:38 AM

Oh, and the checklist is live. Not sure if anyone saw yet.

threepointplay · 11-18-2025, 10:03 AM

Fair enough with the Cloudflare issues.

That’s an awful big number of insert sets!

I predict Topps will run out of original superlatives by 2027.

Not when you can slap an anniversary logo on anything from a previous release!

oldgoldy97 · 11-18-2025, 10:18 AM

Too bad they didn’t get the price out today. But I guess that would convince some people to bow out before the feeding frenzy.

Appalling that there is no price announced.
