Seems to come out a lot of new concepts these days. Topps crossover is cards that comes out but in digital and physical form and from different series, both sports and non-sports as I understand it. To this date there has been two sets, one for baseball and one for soccer.

How should we deal with these in the database? Should each set released be a separate set in the database? Since they are released at different dates and in different sports and even non-sports probably.

Set 1 is baseball. Set 2 is soccer. The press release says to expect their other digital properties, which are WWE, UFC, Star Wars, and Walking Dead. Obviously they won't be allowed to do real NFL cards even though they still have that app going. The numbering started over with this week's soccer at PL1, etc. If each set will have a letter prefix and start at 1, and the designs look nothing alike, it seems to me each is a separate set.

Set 3 is now released and it is UFC:

Different design, different card numbering(?). I would agree that these should be considered and added as separate sets. Anyone against? Should they be added as Oddball?
