I think this is the first year for this set, what do you guys think? I think the design looks interesting but also kinda weird at the same time.

Comes out on 10/1/08.

yea this was the stupid product where they have actual money as redemptions.this product just shows where the hobby is going

The design isn't too hot IMO.

The "Money" rip cards are funny. People have "ripped" on them, yet they always complain of not getting monetary value back from a hobby box in general. What is more concrete than getting $10 or more in hard cash back from the rip card? I mean the concept isn't great, but the money back from a box is always an issue for busters, and I think Topps saw that and tried to do something.

That said, I think the mini-card logomans are a unique idea, I'll give them that. But the weighing issue on cards with gold on them is still a problem, at least with a good scale. Come on Topps.

Possibly decent value in the short RC auto checklist - they will be 08-09 rookie autos correct? If so, that would be pretty good.

An average product though. Meh.

the money rip cards are interesting.... there are 429 money rip cards which will have $10, 20, 50, 100, 500, or $1000 in them. i don't know what i would do if i got it, might the card unripped be worth more than what's inside it sometimes?

and yes it is the 08-09 rookies that will be featured for the autos.

im sick of the 14k gold cards already

[molly1984]

how much?

looks like around $5 a pack which would be around $90 a box... this is just based on tony's price in his presale thread

I didn't see Speights listed anywhere. I shall be spending zero dollars on this product.

looks like an uber lame product....just my opinion

[RenegadeLonghorn]

Not too thrilled with this product. $70-90 for a rip card and auto? Money in my cards? Set design looks alright. Topps if my favorite company so I will give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. :)
