The countdown is on.

The Chris Harris Topps Boycott is well into it's fourth month, but it may be coming to an end. According to The Cardboard Junkie, it appears that 2008 Topps Updates & Highlights is now live.

Here's the deal: If it appears that Topps didn't include any stealth gimmick cards in TU&H, then two weeks from today I will buy and bust a box of it.

If on the other hand, if there are any cards of furry creatures, contrived errors, or cards of fictional teenage prospects, then it continues.

Does the Phillies Phanatic count as a furry creature? It's not a stealth gimmick, but I know there's going to be at least two Phanatic sketches.

If there is a super short print stealth Philly Phanatic card in there I'm buying a case.

you're not counting the "promqueen Palin"?

Chris Harris said...

Nah. I don't like it, but I gotta give Topps credit for transparency.

Do you really think they don't have something Assholish planned? Remember this is the company that had Poley Wallnuts last year.

Oops - the Phanatic sketch cards are going to be in Stadium Club - NOT here.

If this is real does it count?

There is also one of Fukudome like that listed from the same seller.

I forgot. I linked to the ended item above. It has been relisted just like the Fukudome at .99 starting price auction.
