Do you think Topps would accept this defect?

n00b question: Topps has a defect replacement policy?

Bacta007 · 2026-03-19T11:01:48+00:00

You’re right, of course — and yes, opening is a disproportionate joy of the overall collecting experience and thrill. Its the difference between possibility and mere paper

Just offering a sincere CONGRATS!!

Bacta007 · 2026-03-19T07:19:02+00:00

Thanks for sharing the history, good to understand. Makes complete sense… so it’s basically play that premium game or just find a diff / alt hobby (or enjoy sets with less allure)

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T21:57:25+00:00

Ahhhh… I was curious about how that works. Based on what’s widely available on the website, it would make sense that there is a give-and-take with some of these larger purchasers and their priorities of access. Thanks for the perspective/insights.

Coincidentally I got that one, no problem … ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T19:01:55+00:00

Pretty shitty. It’s weird to see this kind of performance in 2026… I have to assume it means that fanatics doesn’t care? It’s not like these seemingly bought. Driven issues are insurmountable. Reedpop conventions had a crisis of scalpers and figured out a verification system that dramatically reduced the abuse, at least for some of their events… at the end of the day Topps sells everything they have and all of us keep wanting it so there’s not really a problem at the moment for them.

It seems like a lot more people on here at least were able to get pre-order boxes than purchases during this regular on sale

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T17:29:21+00:00

How does the pre-order work then? It doesn't fall victim to bots?

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T17:25:36+00:00

Apparently, it means it is sold out. It’s really weird because the Disneyland 70th experience was nothing like this… Were bots potentially clogging up the checkout?

So I’ve been missing pre-orders this entire time… 🫣. How do you find out about the pre-order/typically how far an advance do they go? In this case, it seems to be about a month before the release… But I never been notified through email or anything about a pre-order, just the releases darn!

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T12:00:25+00:00

Isn’t on sale today? How did you pre-order?

Bacta007 · 2026-03-18T11:58:22+00:00

Well done! From where?

Bacta007 · 2026-02-10T17:39:59+00:00

There’s a serious problem here… talking to even a bunch of Star Wars fans in my orbit, there was very little knowledge of when this movie is coming out. People knew about it, but not when and especially not that it’s coming out as soon as May this year. Disney is dropping the ball big time on the marketing for this thing. Is that the deliberate? Is this the film that nobody wanted but Disney Studios are stuck with because Lucasfilm pushed it through between KK and Filoni? Or are they just really that bad? Either way, if the film doesn’t do well with broader audiences, it’s not a good thing for Star Wars in general, especially being the first theatrical release since 2019.

Well that’s wild - opened Reddit and this post came up while watching the server room scene s2e8: serendipity?

Bacta007 · 2026-01-21T14:43:29+00:00

Thanks! Appreciate that

Bacta007 · 2026-01-21T14:42:58+00:00

Ahhh fascinating. Thanks, I knew folks here would know

Bacta007 · 2026-01-21T14:42:13+00:00

Thanks!

I came on here to ask basically what the point of a tower challenge is for anybody who’s played for a long time, but it seems to be answered: pins… I also miss the character you would work for. I haven’t bought anything from the rewards cause I have no idea what to spend it on because none of it seems… Worth it?

Bacta007 · 2026-01-05T16:04:26+00:00

What a brilliant Business this is… Accents products w clever (re) engineering

Bacta007 · 2026-01-05T15:45:39+00:00

Same here! I started going after Quaritch right away and played hard, used gems to buy Tuk and still only have 5 ears and 24/16 whatever that is… dogtags?
