Those foil boards look nice. So you get 5 and it could literally be any of the 700 cards? What kind of price will the Robert end up going for?

Complete set is only printed on the back of the variations. The 700 card set is the same as pack inserted cards, where they say Series 1 or Series 2 on the backs of the cards.

I found 3 Walmart green sets in the wild yesterday and I hit two of the full paralle gold star sets. Nothing much for foil boards but definitely thrilled

Hmm after taking a buying break for the past several months this thread has me starting to rethink my decision not to buy. The parallels in this set look absolutely awesome! Topps put together something special it seems.

So the purple Target sets have numbered parallels and the
Walmart Green sets have just different colors?

I ran into the green sets yesterday at Walmart. The flippers just bought all the Mosaic and left the green sets. Looks like Walmarts are getting a case, which was 6 sets in the first wave.

I bought 4 walmart green sets this morning (flippers/stocker show up on Thursdays)

Any idea how many variation sets there are, or is it just the 3 (299, 99 , 1)?

Seemed like a must buy at msrp with 5 foilboards, rookie variations, and 1:3 parallel set shot

Is Topps packing/collation/or whatever word best describes my question, if the entire case of 6 is there. Does that mean with the chances being 1:3 that there most likely would be 2 sets that are parallels out of that 6 set case?

So far, we've seen gold stars, orange and blue sets. But we're not clear if the orange/blue are one of the limited edition to 299 or 99 or just a shorter print parallel set. If the orange and blue are the limited edition ones, then we actually have 4 "variations" - gold stars, orange, blue and then the actual #d 1/1.

Based on the 1:3, then yes that should be the case. But you're likely to get the more common gold star parallel set.

Bots are definitely sitting on the Factory Sets as well on WalMart.

They have been but I feel like the random reloads during the day are very small quantities so it's impossible if you're manual. The reload early this AM on Wally must have been massive because the set sat 15-20 min.

Seems like it, I've got the page up and item saved for later and I can't check out fast enough

I tried all day yesterday (including randomly tapping in the app a few times to see if I'd get lucky) - I just don't know if it's worth it. Hopefully, there's another big reload so we'll have another shot

According to most people I've heard from flippers are avoiding them in stores so hopefully I'm good there.

How on Earth are flippers avoiding them when they clear out garbage products that sell at msrp on eBay?

Sometimes I wonder if products like A&G are just getting stolen from wal mart shelves and fenced on ebay and that's why we don't see them.

The only one not a no-brainer is the regular blue retail. But, I think that is still well worth it at MSRP. Green and Purple are both no-brainers at MSRP.

Walmart has a case of 6 Topps sets along with another case of mosaic blasters, Topps chrome blasters, and hangers, Donruss football blasters, hangers, and illusions basketball that an employee bought out before the Store opened. Illusions haul was around $600. Gl out there today gents.

I was able to pick up 4 target sets on the app yesterday later in the afternoon. Also, I snagged 3 of the Walmart sets in the store this morning. I would have grabbed all six but I happened to walk into the store at the same time as another guy who was looking for the sets so we agreed to split them 3 and 3.

So the green sets are 1 in 3 a FULL parallel set, with further chances of finding a /299, /99 or /1 set?

Where do I sign up
