Here's the full artwork for my Gooneybird portrait. Loved painting that vintage Yankees jacket. (It would've looked so nice on a fine art print)

The Fine Art Prints used to be issued in batches when it started...forgot how many in a week but once a hundred (cards 1 to 100, etc.) were done (some sold out, some sold like 4 or 5), we would wait for the next batch of 100 to slowly be released, etc. (something like that ).

I would really like to see Topps make an effort to bring back the /100 Fine Art Prints like they used to do (with 1 purchase per account instituted) and start up where they left off. It's absolutely do-able.

As a fervent living set collector these are my demands:

1. Bring back the fine art prints. Double the price, I really don't care. Make them an endless edition, whatever, the cat is out of the bag. You showed us these, I have binders full of them. Bring them back.

2. Bring back the checklists. Or at least make it so that if you order 1 of each that week you just automatically get a checklist. There's no artwork on these cards, surely the overhead can't be much than extra materials and fulfillment. Make it happen.

3. Bring back Star Wars Living Set. Go back to the Mouse and tell them they're dumb. Kris Penix put so much heart into those cards, it's criminal to be running any living set without Star Wars. It will be as though nothing ever happened when card #501 drops. Or at the very least start knocking out properties in "seasons" of expansions on these cards. Do a run of cards featuring mostly Skeleton Crew characters and interleave a few of the missed big guys from the OT movies. Stop and start it at your convenience, I'll still buy it if I get cards 501-530 and then wait a year for cards 531-580. Or whatever. FFS it hurts to have a dead living set.

4. Get Julio NAR! to start doing Marvel Living Set. The SPs can be his lines for that given artwork. If you must do yet another parallel like NBA living set, have a full bleed chrome version for the degens. Gabe/Jared please suggest this to Fanatics/Topps. I know again it's likely the Mouse who's making the call but c'mon this would outrageously popular and give the collectors an affordable alternative to the madness that Marvel cards have become. I don't care what design you go with -- just don't let it get in the way of the lines. Take 2025 Marvel Chrome and drop the border. Just c'mon.

5. Copy the NBA model for WWE and bring it back as seasonal living set. C'mon, you're already releasing those stupid Topps Now auto rip chases for Royal Rumble. I don't really care about WWE to be perfectly honest but Dan Bergren's art was fantastic.

You can take my username on here and find out where I am in your Fanatics system and see how much money I spend on Living Set cards. Please for the love of god, make some of this happen. The hobby has never been hotter so why skimp on the living sets?

You really captured the time period well in this on. It portrays a real feel/atmosphere.

I agree bring them back. Give collectors a chance to keep going with what they started.

Bring back prints for all releases

And WWE should be all year—it’s not like they have a season

TOPPS please bring prints back. Up the price, I don't care. I need this Larson as a print, need the Schmidt as a print, need the O'Neill as a print. I have over 300 of these prints and around 185 signed and 55 framed. There are 10-15 more players that we needed, and you killed it off. Schmidt, Reggie Jackson, Koufax... charge 100 bucks for them I don't care. Collection feels incomplete.

Gary Matthews has been deleted from Topps site lol clowns EDIT he has been brought back to life hallelujah! Gary Matthews - 2026 MLB Living Set® - Card 905 - PR: 1340

This is a weirdly high PR for a non-rookie who has played 20 games?

Moisés Ballesteros - 2026 MLB Living Set® - Card 904 - PR: 1,434

I mean I guess his BA and OBP is high but ... 66 plate appearances isn't enough to draw a conclusion.

I finally got a response from Topps yesterday after I expressed my disappointment in the canceling of wall art prints. They said that they do not intend to bring it back at this time, but the door is not shut on the future...aka probably never
