2019 Topps Triple Threads Gold

Year: 2019
Card Manufacturer: Topps
Set: Triple Threads
Card Number: 30
Card Type: Base Parallel
Parallel Set: Gold
Card Attributes: Serial Numbered
Serial Number: 25/99

My most recent COMC order, 7 months in the waiting, contained almost 2 full years of card purchases.  My usual MO is I wait till COMC's big Black Friday event, buy and bunch of cards and then have my whole port shipped.  Of course with the pandemic and COMC's troubles with staffing, processing, and shipping, I held off for quite a while. Last year's Black Friday sale was also a big disappointment, mainly because of COMCs issues with processing new cards.  Usually COMC will have a big influx of new cards right before the event and while the cards might have come, many weren't processed in time for the Black Friday sale.  So that meant there was a lot of stale inventory.  And while I still came away with some nice cards I didn't spend near the amount I would have or picked up as many cards.

Ahem, rant over.  I was able to pick up a nice rainbow of flavors of Robin's 2019 Triple Threads cards. To start off here's his Gold Parallel from the set.  Honestly, except for the serial numbering on the card this looks very similar to his base card in the set.  Thankfully most of the other color parallels are easier to spot.

2019 Topps Triple Threads Onyx

Year: 2019
Manufacturer: Topps
Set: Triple Threads
Card Number: 30
Card Type: Base Parallel
Parallel Set: Onyx
Card Attribute: Serial Numbered
Serial Number: 26/50

Whew am I glad my COMC Black Friday haul posts are done.  I ended up picking up this great 2019 Triple Threads Onyx parallel from my LCS, Bosco's.  I can't remember if I had stopped by for one of their semi-regular card shows or if it was their monthly Trade Night, but the trading card manager Moe had sent me a message on Twitter with a nice selection Brewers cards he had picked up and set aside for me.  In the batch was this card, plus the base.  I've said it many times before but it's super rare that I find new Younts locally.  But it does happen from time to time and I love it.  It seems to me that over the last couple year's almost across all of the Topps brands that Topps has made their parallels more and more subtle.  If this wasn't serial numbered to 50 on the front you might pass this off as a base card.
