Topps released its latest online-only product Wednesday with the launch of 2018 Ginter X baseball.
It’s a new issue meant to celebrate the brand’s 10th anniversary. The cards will have a “10th Anniversary Issue” stamp but X is being produced on what Topps calls “sleek, black stock.”
Basically, X puts the standard A&G set on a dark background but with a few other twists.
Base cards, common minis and Allen & Ginter back minis will get the all-black treatment while the black-bordered minis issued in 2015 A&G have been re-created with a white border this time.
Boxes have 16 packs with eight cards per pack and Topps is promising to deliver two hits in every box. One out of every two boxes, on average, will have an autographed card.
The Topps Home Run Challenge contests continues with Ginter X, which was available here at a price of $70 per box but was already listed as “sold out” by late Thursday morning.
