View Full Version : Champs mini's toploaders????? Wingsfan-13 03-20-2009, 11:23 AM Do they make these???? Also is it true no Hot Prospects this year, I'd be severly disapointed!!! Inferno 03-20-2009, 11:28 AM They do make them but they're probably not very common, and it is true no Hot Prospects or Sweet Shot (RIP) this year :/ 30ranfordfan 03-20-2009, 11:30 AM No Hot Prospects for sure..... and I don't know about mini sized top loaders. I remember someone on here posting that they got their hobby shop to order a box of mini sized sheets for a binder (held 12, I think?) so it's possible. The one I'm shocked isn't available (maybe it is... and I just can't find it here) are boxes that are tall enough to have a tall-boy or graded card stand upright. Prime B 03-20-2009, 11:31 AM Ultra Pro has been making them for about 18 months now. http://cgi.ebay.com/10-ULTRA-PRO-MINI-TOPLOADERS-T206-T205-ALLEN-GINTER_W0QQitemZ250391076533QQihZ015QQcategoryZ868 40QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem As far as Hot Prospects, thanks God that and some other sets are not coming out this year, the market is totally over saturated as it is........ Nashrules 03-20-2009, 11:45 AM Im currently putting them in pages, but toploaders are my prefered method of storage. I'll be buying some of those to be sure, especially if local shop i go to gets them in, or i can pick them up at the show tomorrow. RGM81 03-20-2009, 11:49 AM No Hot Prospects, no Sweet Shot, and I have yet to hear anything about Mini Jersey either. While some of those beauty patches from HP will be missed, it is good that the overall crop is being cut back in some areas - even if only to be pumped up in others.

I don't mind seeing Mini Jersey go, and although I liked the patch cards from last year's Hot Prospects I don't miss the product, it's Sweet Shot I'm disappointed about. If Upper Deck would have gave it one more try, put more value into the tins, or lowered the price I think it could have done better. cnshockey 03-20-2009, 08:11 PM WHAT! NO HP!!! that was one of my fav breaks! not cool. i am glad sweet shots and hopefully mini jersey are gone cause i hated both Nashrules 03-20-2009, 08:42 PM Not to pile on the thread overthrow, but Ill miss HP too. 05/06, I went crazy on that stuff, and 06/07 I was close. geschrocks33 03-20-2009, 08:52 PM Thats so disappointing, HP and Sweet Shot gone. Mini jersey no biggie. But heroes and prospects and also sweet shot were really nice sets. Not having them sucks. But at least we have all Canadian sets this year...sigh cnshockey 03-20-2009, 09:55 PM Thats so disappointing, HP and Sweet Shot gone. Mini jersey no biggie.

HP is hot prospects. really mad its gone cause i REALLY wanted a patch auto of boyle from it/logo shield I really wanted one of Pietrangelo as well, I've known about this for awhile but I'm still just as bummed as the day I found out. cnshockey 03-21-2009, 02:46 AM I really wanted one of Pietrangelo as well, I've known about this for awhile but I'm still just as bummed as the day I found out. yeah it makes me mad. i hated sweet shots and mini jersey so i will be happy to see those go. but i'd rather them take away something else instead of HP Nashrules 03-21-2009, 02:54 AM yeah it makes me mad. i hated sweet shots and mini jersey so i will be happy to see those go. but i'd rather them take away something else instead of HP Its time for black diamond to go away. cnshockey 03-21-2009, 03:16 AM Its time for black diamond to go away. IMO black diamond is decent. ESPECIALLY this year. my friend bought two boxes at 80 CAD each and got over 400 bv in cards. I personally wouldnt mint it going. also get rid of MVP and ultra Nashrules 03-21-2009, 03:18 AM IMO black diamond is decent.

Dump collectors choice. its always ugly, and its ridiculous. MVP on the other hand is nicely done most years, offers a jersey a box, and has some ok resale prices for the top rookies. cnshockey 03-21-2009, 03:20 AM Need 3 or 4 sets for the folks who cant afford expensive. $50 US a box is a good price point.
