I know I am
late to the game on this one, but I have talked about my distaste for variations.
Did Topps really need to release a variation in the 2013 Chrome set of Prince Fielder’s
hair? Sadly, this isn’t even the first time I have talked Topps’s decision to
focus on hair on a baseball card, that distinction goes to 2017 Topps Now Bryce
Harper Epic Hair Flip BS.
This isn’t a
rant about hair, but un-needed variations, the hair/DNA cards are actually pretty cool.
Ugh, another examples of how the companies are out of tune with collectors.
ReplyDeleteExactly. If they must do a variation, at least make it an interesting shot of Fielder.
DeleteLooks like some kind of sea urchin that should be from an A&G mini insert set. I can do without it.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is seriously a card? I guess I didn't hear about it at the time.
ReplyDeleteSadly, though, if it were a football card variation of a Browns player, I would still look for it. I have a problem. :)
I'm a fan of fantastic "hair" cards like the 76TT Oscar Gamble and the 14T Coco Crisp... but this card is a bit too much.
ReplyDeleteFirst I thought this was a Cousin Itt card. Then I thought this was some kind of photoshop joke. Yikes.
ReplyDeleteSadly Prince and the Tigers were never the same after this card was released
