I’m hoping there are orioles dressed as Divine. Maybe even John Waters makes an appearance. Or a fight between the cartoon bird and the classic bird orioles mascots.

I really like that Clemente Rochester, both versions of it too.

It feels off-center, but I think it's because of the blue border. I've tried to just not worry about the centering on any of the Fucci cards. I think he's intentionally messing with us.

I usually try to check against the Topps site if I feel like something's wrong, but sometimes the Topps site itself is misleading. On the Ermsy Ripken, I have more space to the left of the ball than the official Topps pic, but also more cloud on the right side. It's off-center in both directions!

[EDIT: oh yeah, ditto on the Clemente]

Everyone has their Rochester Clemente's in hand and I don't even have a shipping notification for mine yet....

Ha ha. My fucci gooden is not only just slightly off-center, it's also slightly crooked.... so I am choosing to agree with this and not worry about it

Beck's Ryan is terrific! Kudos.

Today's Mac is fun and mischievous but I will pass.

Pretty tempted by the JK5 Gooden autos at $100.

Fucci has racked up a lot of PSA violations:
- Gooden: looks miscut
- Mattingly: no color besides navy: print defect?
- Griffey: off-center
- Ryan: staining and marks
- Ichiro: doesn't the name "Ichiro" look out-of-focus?

I aint gunna buy six, but I wish I knew what the differences were. Photos just show red box and blue box.

LIVE UPDATE BEFORE POSTING: I now see there is three different red box boxes, three different blue boxes. Each with a different Henry or Sally illustration on them.

You bought from a reseller and expected to be one of the first people to have the card in hand? How is that supposed to work?

Wheeler got TwinsJake'd i remember early on in project 2020 twinsjake would chime in here and there in this thread and then he got overwhelmed and then his eBay account got suspended/banned and Wheeler has gotten his ebay account limited and has very limited time to check blowout or comment in this thread. He's super backed up and i don't want to speak for him as i am just speculating but but i imagine he will be happy after Project 2020 is finished.

Not at all.....but if it is like the other cards purchased it won't be in hand for 2 months.

Oliroller · 09-25-2020, 05:30 PM

I actually bought an AP Rochester Clemente from Topps. My one and only AP I was able to purchase. Still no shipping notification

1000 Sport Zonk · 09-25-2020, 05:35 PM

Oliroller, you think OMAs upcoming webpage is gunna just to be manage autos, or does he have companion cards coming??? Photos of players cleats and hems of their pant?

wanna bet?

Oliroller · 09-25-2020, 06:04 PM

He has no plans to do companions, but did mention possibly doing one special extra card when the set is over.

Oliroller · 09-25-2020, 06:06 PM

OMA also mentioned some kind of special packaging/display for those who have his complete set. That would be cool. I know Blake mentioned that as well.

Oliroller · 09-25-2020, 06:12 PM

Naturel has 3 more companions coming as well...just as an FYI

Why do you think you wont get your orders? Multiple people started receiving Wheeler orders yesterday and today.
