Because there are so many different variations based on which format you open, I decided to stick with just Hangers for Series 1 and it worked out well. I hit all the different SP's except the Golden Mirrors, and even a Platinum RC 1/1. I haven't hit a single Golden Mirror this year or last out of retail, and I have ripped a ton of it. Hobby seems to be the way for those if you are chasing. I'll probably stick with hangers to start with Series 2 as well.

@tenfourproductionsllc5 ай бұрын
2024 base set is really an attractive set, both design wise and photo wise. What I do wish though is that Topps would put some effort into the back of the cards, it's a shame each year the back looks the same even though it's 50 percent of the real estate of the card.

As long as the SP rookies arent like 1 in 5 cases, this should be a very intriguing set!

It's not even really Topps anymore. They're bought out Prices are jacked up. quality has stunk since they took over, poor random sequencing 'Ker-stad. " Is the correct pronunciation. It's not affordable for families and greedy has made it gambling lite. So yeah, it's not really enjoyable as it was. Money we can donate perhaps. I don't know. All photos feel the same , nothing original. Compare to Score 96 or Donruss 84 fleer 82 any 90s tsc. Something's off with the feeling. Not fun anymore.
