Agree. Although I think Topps killed their momentum with the ugly 2018 versions. The 2017's were the first ones and looked great, then 2018 looked like every other lame-ass jersey auto they do, then they came back with a bang in 2019.

Upper Deck has a winner set in their "Ice" product (hockey) called "Rookie Ice Premieres" which is an autographed patch card /10 of all of the rookies for that year that sells for HUGE money. I figured these would be the same but them killing its momentum last year sucks.

I really like the idea of beautiful inserts like this with on card autos seeded at astronomical rates in a $3/pack product. It looks and feels like you've really found something special...like the ol days.

I’ve been exclusively baseball for the last three years (after wasting a lifetime buying hockey cards) and while people bitch about Topps, their move away from autographs and jersey cards is amazing. I love that the focus is back on short printed base cards and rookie cards.

Added this to the collection. It's crazy how good the foilboards look in person. Also probably my favorite image of Guerrero they've produced so far. It's become my favorite Guerrero card I own.

I believe so, because the one found in series 2 as #NNO is the same picture used as the base card in the holiday set

Yeah, I don't believe the 700 image has been used anywhere else except the complete/factory set. Bummer, as mentioned previously, it's my favorite image of Guerrero so far.

Nope, just add $500 dollars worth of stuff to the cart and it adjusts. Smaller discounts for smaller expenditures.
