Wow. That is even more classic.

Someone needs to convince Paul Lesko from Twitter to join this thread.

I don't think Paul is on BO, which is why I pointed it out to him over there in the first place

ha! thanks for pointing me in the direction of Paul Lesko's twitter feed. That stuff is gold.

I didn't even know about King Saladeen ripping off Pop Fly. What was Saladeen's response and what sort of backlash did he face?

It was noticed immediately since a lot of Project fans are fans of Pop Fly. There was a little back and forth. If you can find when it happened we talked about it a lot in this thread. Ultimately one of the issues which lead to the pause in Project 70 cards while Topps tried to fix their issues with card approval.

I will sell it. Just played around with the Snoop run. The keepers are all the Ohtani singles I bought for my son.
Vinny
PS: gonna list the 20 cards and print as a package this weekend.

Also quite possible that it contributed directly to Daniel/Pop Fly being invited to be a part of Project100, though I don't know that for sure.

I'll have to search for it. I got into P70 late, so I must have missed it.

It also led to Saladeen issuing what seemed like a genuine apology (doesn't excuse the ripping off), and then later collaborating with Daniel / Pop Fly doing the art for the Deion Sanders Saladeen.

No one asked, but my nice hobby lobby frame I bought for my Pardee Space Jam Print, now holds my pardee print.

Not an upgrade, but a fresh piece and I don't hate it.

But very few prints have even the limited appeal of the pardee print. certainly none that have fewer than 20 cards or horizontal cards (most of them).

I've heard that the Bobby Hundreds print has a lot of errors and creases on purpose to fit the theme of his set.

Morons run Topps. Absolute morons. A card they already removed for copy-write infringement (Ohtani - they literally copied someone else’s art) finds its way on the Solefly poster. You can’t make this stuff up.

Seems like they could have spaced the cards out better on the prints.

Maybe five rows of four cards would have worked.
