Looks like a huge gamble with the chance of getting one memorabilia card for your $200+. Looks a lot like triple threads IMO, Topps needs to get a little more creative.

Ughh, looks like sticker autos...You'd think that for a high end set, Topps would try for actual on-card autos.

I was actually looking forward to this because I really like Sterling Baseball. I've checked around at all of the sites I by from and it's gone from every site but one that just has it as "Release Delayed". I'd say it's done. I can't even find it on the Topps website. Guess I'll save some money then.

i think these players shouldnt be in this product:
Adrian Peterson
Darren McFadden
Matt Ryan

they are very young players. McFadden wasnt that good last year. Ryan and Peterson are great players but it is still early in their career and they can get a serious injury or something can happen to them.

This product has been cancelled. I've seen on several sites that apparently the cards produced that were intended for this product will be spread out and inserted in other Topps products throughout the year.

i agree with you 100 percent, it should only be hof'ers or future hof'ers,,, its not that mcfadden wasnt good, he just barely even played because of injuries, buut did shine the little that he played. suprising that he still racked up over 800 total yards
