I have to ask for help on these. Who are the top rookies in there?

Hm, if they keep same parallels, double Pr from other releases since it’s a larger checklist. Unless it’s 4 parallels per box like F1

I am sure there are others but Clark and Cowell and maybe Martinez as rookies. Pepi as a vet would be a good hit.

Any idea if there will be enough of a print run on the MLS Sapphire for a public sale tomorrow?

I know a very slim chance of this, but if there are any MC members here that I've done business with on these forums that won't be in for a box let me know and I would be more than happy to buy one!

If Topps does 2 parallels per box, plenty to go around. If 4, then won’t be a lot left over

It also depends on how many parallels they do as well. They've changed up it quite a bit with different sapphire products.

Insta buy at $150. $300 would definitely pause.

The 3 box limit is interesting. I would have guessed 2 boxes, and wouldn't have been surprised at 1.

I still don't think there will be plenty left if/when released to the public. I think these will sell out very quickly. It's the first MLS Sapphire release. Topps will clearly want to have more Sapphire releases in the future. So it's best to make sure people want more of the first release than what's available. That way they'll be sure to not miss the next release, and so on.

Don't sleep on this one. (Not that anyone truthfully will).

The 3-box limit at first had me optimistic like the old days of this being a $50-75 per box item, since most of the stuff that's more expensive has had smaller limits. But I know better than that.

Cowell isn't a rookie, his regular chrome doesn't have the rookie logo (2020 MLS Bowman is his rookie) so not sure why it has him listed as a rookie for sapphire
