Anyways, I did it. I caved and bought a hobby box of '11 Topps. I'm not collecting anything from the set, except for anything Mets related of course, so everything I got from this box is up for trade! I'll list it all out below and whatever you want, just claim in a comment!
Before I list everything, just a few musings. I'm not gonna say "I like this or that" or talk about design because we've all heard and seen it already. I just wanted to show off my one hit from the box...

WAHOOOOOO!!!!
It never gets old pulling a card of your favorite player!
And one last thing. Whoever came up with/gave the green light on the "History of Topps" set is probably the same guy who goes home, turns all the lights off, lights a few candles and jacks off in front of the mirror. Why do we need this set? I can in all good faith compare this to a drug dealer handing out pamphlets to all of his "clientele" highlighting milestone moments in their life and how they became what they are today. It's a buzzkill Topps and it robs us of crack!
...cards, I mean. It robs us of, umm... cards and... stuff.
So yeah, comment or email to lay claim to whatever you want!
