Hi Neil, since the wrappers are #'ed 1-300 does that mean that the Limited sets will be produced in a quantity of 300 instead of 250?

Hi guys,

There are 300 sets of the  new limited edition postcards! Don't know exactly what time they'll be released, but I hope sometime in the morning. Keep your fingers crossed!

I like the sound of that. Us west coasters would have to get up early if they went on sale at 8AM EST.

I was just wondering if there'd be a new set soon - this is great news!  Thanks for the heads up.

A limit of 5?  With the increase to 300 sets, that seems low, especially if there are going to be more than 5 sketch titles again.  Or, did Smokin' Joe stick to one title this time?

Nope, Smokin' Joe did his typically fantastic, absurd and wonderfully wacky sketch cards!!! At least two distinct cards with lots of little variations!

I'm certainly looking forward to seeing the sketch cards, but seeing as how there will be at least 6 distinct sketch cards, maybe Topps can raise the limit from 5 sets per customer.

Matthew's sketch cards were equally impressive! As I recall, he did a number of color cards as well! Really amazing stuff!

Does anyone have a clue how long these will be available - will it be less than a day, like a number of hours? Is this like trying to score a ticket to see U2?
I need to run to the hardware store and do a few things - wondering if I should hang tight, just in case Brad has 54 different Topps usernames and will sweep them all up in 30 minutes.

Thanks Bumchex! I hope you guys like the new set.

Now that I could actually order 5 sets I wish I could order more then 5 this time. The last sketch cards were really cool and I would like more sketch cards this time around. I am thankful though that these are limited since the last batch ran out in just a few hours and I was lucky enough to get a set from Neil and also to trade for a set.

Looks like there is about 125 remaining at 1:45pm EST.  They will probably be sold out by 2:00pm or so.

It only looks like you can put in qty 1-5. How can you tell there are 125 left?

You can only order 5 sets but Topps still allows you to see what is remaining at that store.  Topps may have released a small portion of the sets for now and they may list some additional sets later this afternoon after this initial run sells out.  I know that Topps has done this in the past.
