There are many people out there interested in playing the new 2010 Topps Attax Game, but want to learn about it before buying the game.

I suggest that you take a minute and watch the 2010 Topps Attax Game video from Topps, and if you are still interested in the game continue reading on.
looks like fun right, so now I am sure that you want to get your own deck and get started playing. The first thing you need to do is get a starter deck which contains your Topps Attax Playmat and your starting lineup. You may not know where to go and buy your starter deck, so I put a link for easy reference for you below. When you get your deck you may also want to pick up some booster packs, so that you can make your own customizable lineup. Here are some links to get your started with your basic deck:
Starter Set Combo Set Booster Packs
The combo set is truly a great deal, because you are getting the Starter Deck, Playmat, and 6 booster packs! For $20 you are completely set and have plenty of cards to customize your deck!
Well you now have your deck and some booster packs, but you want to add a killer card to your deck to give you an edge over your opponent. If you are looking for that something special I suggest you look into getting a 2010 Topps Attax Legend Card. Well you can only have 1 legend card in your deck, so make sure to choose it well.
Now that you have your deck complete get out there and have some fun playing your friends and family, and just in case you wanted to watch some more 2010 Topps Attax Game Videos below are the Yankees and Red Sox commercials.

2007 Topps Baseball Card Set
2007 Topps Baseball Card SetIn the world of baseball cards nothing in my opinion says "play ball" like a set of topps baseball cards. Every year collectors look forward to the release of the latest editions and the 2007 Topps Baseball Card Set is no exception to this rule.
This year the set is 660 cards broken down into what has become the traditional Series 1 and Series 2 Sets, and each set consists of 330 cards which makes the 660 total cards. If you are buying the cards in pack form they had series 1 and series 2 boxes which came in several different forms such as Hobby Boxes, Retail Boxes, and Home Team Advantage Boxes. The Home Team Advantage Boxes contain 1 relic card and 1 autograph card per box, so if you are looking to make sure you score some extra inserts in your box then you need to make sure you pick up a Home Team Advantage box.
Well no matter whatever 2007 Topps Baseball Card Packs you pick up I assure you that you will be quite pleased with what you get. One of the cards that set the baseball card world on fire in the 2007 set was the Derrek Jeter card. This card can only be found in packs and is not inserted into factory sets. When the packs first went on sale this card was selling like crazy for well over $100/card! Well some time has passed and the price has come down but the card is still 
very much in demand. The Jeter card on the left with him swinging is the card everyone wants. If you look closely at it you will see that Mickey Mantle is waiting to come to bat, and George W. Bush is watching the game from the stands. The card to the right is the standard Jeter card that you would find in a factory set. If you are a Jeter fan or only want that card mouse over it to see the latest bottom line pricing on it. This makes a great gift for the baseball card collector, Yankees fan, or Derrek Jeter fan.
Well to sum it all up this is once again an outstanding set that leaves you very satisified that you chose the 2007 Topps Baseball Card Set to put your hard earned money into. The packs are a blast to open and you can pull out some serious collectors cards that may be worth quite a bit in the future, so it is an investment set as well. If you are looking to get some packs and build a set that way or just simply buy a factory set to put in the closet I suggest you do so sooner rather than later because as time passes this set may become too expensive to pick up. 2010 Topps Attax Baseball Card Sets

2008 Topps Baseball Card Sets
In 2008 Topps put out their baseball card set into the familiar two series format. Topps Series 1 and 2 had the same format for pack format as years past. They came in both HOBBY BOXES and JUMBO BOXES. The hobby boxes contain 36 packs of ten cards and the jumbo boxes contain 10 packs of 46 cards. When Series 2 came out Topps included one relic (this is a memorabilia card) or autograph card on average per box.
Well lets talk about how the cards looked overall. I will break it down into the front and back of the card:
The Front:
They did change their style (which I think was a good thing) over the 2007 Topps Baseball Card Sets. They got rid of the black borders and replaced them with a white frame-like border. Across the top of the baseball card is these colored circles with the players team name in it. Now this was not a earth shattering design in my opinion but it did give a slight retro look to them that grew on me the more I collected them. The finishing touch to the card is the silver foil that make up the players name and the Topps logo.
The Back
The back is a nice full color back that make it nice and easy to read the stats of the players. I remember in years past that the stats were hard to read due to black ink on a solid color, but that is not the case here. If you are a stat nerd like I am you look at the backs and for 2008 I give it two thumbs up.
Series 1 Set Breakdown
The 2008 Topps Series 1 set has 330 cards in it that includes veterans, managers, league leaders, playoff highlights, award winners and 30 rookie cards that contain the "MLB Rookie Card" logo on it.
Series 1 Inserts
Parallels are a common pull out of packs in the 2008 edition, however there aren't that many that detract from the core set of cards. In my opinion it is just enough sprinkles on this sundae to keep pack busting fun and exciting. Here is a quick breakdown of the inserts:
Gold inserts - look the same as the base cards but have gold foil instead of silver foil. You tend to get one in about every two packs, and are numbered to 2008.Black - These come only in hobby boxes and are numbered to 57
Platinum - These are true gem cards because they are numbered 1-of-1, and they can show up in any type of pack.
Other inserts that you will find in 2008 Topps Series 1 Packs is the "Own the Game" series with 25 cards, Mickey Mantle Home Run History, and The Mickey Mantle Story. Now I do love the "Own the Game" series some collectors like me are a bit worn out with the Mickey Mantle insert cards, because they have been done several times before.
2008 Topps Series 2
Well as you can guess from previous years that the Series 2 doubles the card set by introducing another 330 cards to the base set bringing the total 2008 Topps Set to 660 cards. Just like series one the set contains veterans, managers, All Star cards and rookie cards with the "MLB Rookie" logo.
Series 2 Inserts
Well in 2008 Topps for the first time ever guaranteed a relic card or an autograph in EVERY Series 2 Hobby box.The inserts are the same as Series 1 with one exception. There are insert cards called "Silk Cards", and
what you just thought is true. They are made out of silk, numbered to 50, and are encased in a special frame for durability.Well in my opinion the 2008 Topps Baseball Card Sets (Series 1 and 2) are an outstanding value. They do a good job in presentation and keep the pack busting fun and exciting. I highly recommend picking up some boxes to open up because packs for this year are drying up fast. Below are some of the latest deals I have found on the 2008 Topps Baseball Card Sets and packs.
2009 Topps Baseball Card Set
The 2009 Topps baseball card packs have "parallel" cards that were randomly inserted into packs. The "parallel" cards break down into three types:
Gold cards numbered to 2009Black cards numbered to 58.
Framed Silk cards are numbered to 50
Also in every 2009 Topps hobby box you will get an autograph card (like the one featured to the right) or a relic card. These cards are very collectible, so if you are looking to get some great cards make sure to pick up a hobby box before they are gone forever. I keep an active link below as long as they are still available.
The complete 2009 Topps Baseball Card Set contains 660 cards and consists of the following cards:
525 Veteran Cards
70 Rookie Cards
30 Manager Cards
10 League Leader Cards
2 Rookies of the Year Cards

To sum it up this is one of those baseball card sets that not only looks great, but is destined to be hightly sought after in the years to come. Like all card sets as time goes by they are harder to get and become more expensive, so if you are considering picking up some 2009 Topps Baseball Card Sets, or just some packs don't delay and get them while you can.
