Topps Supreme has been in the football line for the last couple of years. In football, it is typically 2 base, 1 parallel and 1 auto or relic. Baseball is different in that each box contains two autographs and that's it. Releases like these (hits only) are harsh products. The cost per results just do not make it a worthwhile venture. Yes, you might hit one out of the park in a box, but the odds are against you. Supreme would be better at half the price and even then, I'm not sure it would justify multiple purchase or even a single one for that matter. The sticker autographs are unsightly, especially overlaid upon the gold Supreme logo. Sadly, just not a lot to excited about.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Base - n/a
Design - 3.5/5
Fun - 4/5
Value - 3/5
Rebuy - 2.5/5

Overall - 13/20 (65%)
