My main issue with these is that they feel entirely designed by AI. The D Wade is nice. Maybe the most underrated player in NBA history.

Oh for sure. I'm not sure why they couldn't have rolled with something like the Panini Noir feel from a few years ago or even a Triple Threads/Five Star type card. Every one of Ben Baller's cards look positively dialed-down compared to these.

I also would prefer the likes of Jarred Vanderbilt to never sniff a $250/card product but it is what it is...

It takes balls to try to spin an Anthony Black sticker hit as a "nice one" but that's Packman for ya..where every product is INSANE and CRAZY. I also love him saying the prices need to come down.
I mean..he's a BIG reason prices are where they are. He's a giant clown

This stuff would be brutal at $500/box. My box was probably better than his last box.

That’s the worst looking Kon autos I’ve seen. Even the Next Stop and Rookie Issue sticker auto cards look better.

I know he’s huffing and puffing there but he’s breaking even there given the Kon and Cooper markets for numbered stuff if he got those at $1k direct. At secondary market prices, it’s a bloodbath though.

At least he didn’t hide his disdain for the design of this product.

They should have used a large patch instead of three tiny bubbles to showcase the Walmart jersey pieces.

The design is horrible.

How I know it’s terrible:

The entire product is built around THREE and they give your four cards because they felt so bad about it.

Product would have been fine at 500 a box. How on Earth it ended up being 3x that, I don't know.

Simple answer - $50 spots for 30 degenerate gamblers just so one bro could yell “I hit a $100 card!!!!”

Crappy design. Big hits are few and far between. Average box probably loses 75% of MSRP. Entire product relies on ‘hitting the big one.’

How is this different than 95% of Topps products?

Boxes will be $2k within a couple weeks. Watch.

Having sticker autos in a set where hobbies go for $1,500+ is disgusting.

It's insane. Between this and the rise of sports betting and Kalshi/Polymarket, you can't deny there's a wide gambling addiction at the moment.

Gen Z doesn’t drink because it’s hard to afford gambling AND alcohol. You gotta pick one or the other.

Both are fact.

Now lets just wait for Blez or some other dirtbag to pull all the /3 or less Flaggs, Stephs, LeBros, VJs and Knipples!
