Who's picking some up? Who are you most excited about?
I've already bought into 4 case breaks for the Rays in hopes of landing some cool Brendan McKay stuff.

Count me in. 52 years ago I was riding my bike down to the corner store every day to see if the series one boxes had come in. Seems that was later in the spring back then. I'll be picking up some packs and boxes to get series one under way.

I'm going to my somewhat local hobby store to pick up my case. So get ready to see a bunch of cards on my trade list.
Trade On!

Eh. Never mind. Momentarily forgot Topps doesn't do football anymore. So my snark was pointless.

I saw the best cards of my generation destroyed by creases, soft cornered hysterical edge wear, dragging themselves through the hobby shops at dawn looking for a top loader...

I have 2 jumbo boxes and 2 hobby boxes to pick up tomorrow. I am feeling like a 10 year old on Christmas Eve. I haven't opened a pack since 2019 Bowman Draft (early December) . Hmm..2 months..that may be a record for me.

I have a Hobby Box being delivered hopefully before the weekend. I usually stop by the local big box stores to buy some hanger boxes, but they don't seem to hit the shelves until the Saturday or Sunday after the release date, so my excitement is tempered. I'm still not sure what insert sets I'll chase. I didn't do the 1987 insert set from 2017, but I did do the 1983 and 1984 insert sets in 2018 & 2019. I will want to see what the 1985 insert set looks like in hand before I decide.
Good luck to all and I hope you get some big hits!

Always excited to receive the new cards. I ordered my typical Jumbo box off eBay, going through the site link here of course. As I mentioned on another thread, I put together an extra team set of the Royals and Cardinals, AND a Royals Gold card team set. I would appreciate your consideration if you have extra base cards from those two teams or Royals Gold cards. Since I've put together the '87, '83 & '84 insert sets I'll probably have to do the '85 set also.
Thanks!

I'm definitely getting a jumbo box but not until Saturday at my LCS' rip party in Arcadia, California. I also got in a couple of group breaks but may not get those cards until next week. I really like those Decades Best insert cards.

Decided to go with the Jumbo Box and man I'm sure glad I did. The Relic Cards are gorgeous and I typically don't like relic cards that much.
Oh, and then a Juan Soto auto #'d/50 sure makes the box a hit, too!

Nice looking cards and great inserts! Got to be part of the TOPPS Million Card Rip Party (yesterday), via my FB Group Break (Restless Craft Breakers) on Live Stream from the EVENT at AT&T. The Crew with My Group Break opened 18 Cases of Jumbos and got a whole bunch of nice hits. Our Group Leader even got to spend some great moments with Pete Alonso, getting a special Pete Alonso 1/1 and ending the Break, just a little before midnight EST, with a beautiful Nolan Ryan AUTO 4/5. It was a really special afternoon & evening yesterday!!
