I found five of these beauties in the Target clearance bin. I was personally not familiar with this set before but they look pretty great as they highlight the players that have had the Topps All-Star Rookie Cup on their cards. Basically, you get four base cards and one reprint of the original card featuring the Topps All-Star Rookie Cup per pack.

  1. You never know what you'll run across in the bargain bin at Target. All mine ever has is Hannah Montana and some kind of horse cards.

  2. I bought a few of these five years ago. If I remember right, I think I got a Dickie Thon /5 Rookie Cup redemption card. I sent it in and got a cool card back with a neat metal logo Topps rookie cup integrated into the card.

    The packs you opened make me cry, though. What's the point of a Chad Tracy reprint (ever), much less one from the same year base set?
