Bonus. Order 3, get 4 seems to be the pattern.

There's still going to be overlap. Honestly, if I were doing a 10-card Dominican set, I'd go Marichal - Pedro - Big Papi - Soto - Tatis Jr - Sammy - Vlad Sr - Vlad Jr - Pujols - Red Sox Manny. And possibly Jose Ramirez to give the set a token Cleveland baseball team player. And then there's Devers.

I wish there were room for Beltre, Julio Franco, Bartolo Colon, an Alou, and LIMA TIME, but I gotta put cards in the people's hands.

I think most people interested in this set would strongly prefer any sort of theme in the artist sets instead of pure randomness.

Going for another PSA 10 set in P70 of his. Centering was brutal on a lot of his P2020 cards, but I have 2 beautiful full sets....one raw and one to grade

Careful Oli a full psa 10 set of OMA cards from EITHER topps project release is highly flammable and should be handled with caution.

Honestly looking forward to OMA, Chang, Vides this go-around.

Come on artists, where my Cubs at?!

Unfortunately I think RISK (of the artists we've sampled) is most likely to do Larry Walker, and his LA bias plus his current pattern of just recreating the actual rookie card (like P2020), makes me think he'd be an Expo.

Which team do we want Randy Johnson to be on? He was outstanding with every team he played for, even the Giants at the twilight of his career (I have selective memory but he pitched well in a couple of late career games with SF Giants at Rockies - don't fact check this statement, I will believe it till I die). He'd be my top pick to appear on a few cards and a couple teams.

Indians fan here! I don’t think there are going to be many Tribe representatives in the set though.

Mariners all day every day for Randy. I know he performed on a number of different teams, but I loved the mid-late 90’s M’s. He looked odd in that Arizona pinstripe jersey.

Cliffroach · 02-26-2021, 11:50 PM

Should be like the All Star game - every team gets represented(do they still do that).

BTW baseball Sunday - exciting to see some games.

I am not sure if it has been mentioned, but the new Thiele companion is kinda cool. It seems more focused on a comic book than the player though.

Is that the Griffey?

samcam · 02-26-2021, 11:57 PM

Mariners Randy before he started pushing photogs around!!!

TBP, it looks like you can officially be a full-set Marlins collector if it does stand that there are no Marlins coming.

E - sorry Naturel did you wrong, but I think any expectation of original card recreations should be thrown out the window. There will be some - we got one today - but this isn't P2020 (ha ha ha - right?).

Anyone still taking the over on 1.5 1954 Aarons? That bet assumed that the Snoop deepfake was real too, so the under is currently an off-market bargain in my view.

oh, i know. but that US300 is just going to be an iconic card, and i would have bought a P2021 of it from him

US300 will be part of P100 no doubt. Hopefully along with US259 from 2013.

At that point P2020 and P70 cards will also be part of the source material. Vides will add dots and lines to Naturel Jackie. JK5 will do his thing with Shore Mattingly. OMA will OMA.

Meta.

Me too. Really wanted to have that

ketchupman36 · 02-27-2021, 02:47 AM

I took the jump and pre-ordered the Naturel artist set from Wheeler. I loved all his P2020 cards (albeit not soon enough) and I expect the same greatness in P70. Although that companion release has me a bit worried haha. Hopefully things like that stay in companion land

OMA's later P2020 cards are still doing quite well on the secondary market. The Ichiro, Gibby, and Ryan are all selling well above TBP's $20 max.
