On the Radar - 2017 Topps Luminaries

So Robin does have a card in 2017 Topps Luminaries.  And when I say a card, I mean one, and he shares it with 40 other people.  I'm almost 100% certain the card will be a redemption. (Edit: It's not!)  I have no idea what size or how you fit 40 autographs and images on a card.  Some sort of super accordian book card.  If it ever sees the light of day I'll post an image here. (It's been found and listed on ebay for an asking price of $35,000!)

2016 Topps Trancendent

Topps Transcendent is being released tomorrow.  If you haven't heard it's the new high mark for a baseball card product with prices per box around $25,000!

It's crazy, you get 52 autographs, that's broken down into 3 1/1's, with one being a Kris Bryant, and a mix of base autos numbered to 52, and parallel autos.  And according to Topps you get at least one auto from each of the 42 signers in the set, so there will be signers that you get a base auto and a parallel.  You also get a base set of cards the set is called MLB Icons, all numbered to 65 and if I read it right they all have the same serial number.  You also get a cut auto box topper, an original sketch card and a reproduction set of all the sketch card subjects.  Is it worth $25,000?  Meh.

I bring it up here because while Robin is not a featured signer or in the base set, he is featured in the sketch cards.  So that means he'll have an original sketch card and a reproduction numbered to 65!
