I don't understand the outrage over this. They are just different color cards right? If you want them cool, if not just ignore it.

That is my sentiment exactly, but I am a tiny bit worried that the auctionable cards will be needed for the collection next week.

Yeah that's fair. If they end up being needed for collections then I get it. Especially if they are hard to get. I honestly don't really know if they are or not because I haven't even looked at it.

Basically it is 25k for a random voucher that you can turn into the alternate version assuming you have unlocked the free Spooky player in the program.

Sorry I’m not fully understanding.
So say I get the Polanco voucher. I can exchange the Polanco I earned, plus the voucher and get the variant?
But then if I want the old card art instead I’m SOOL because it’s gone?

I did two with unsellable Topps Now first thing, did the exchange and sold the variants.
I still have the two original cards.

Oh nice, this is pretty cool then. I thought you lost the original card / had to exchange it.

If things in your life bother you, just ignore em. That's the key to life.

Me too…silly me thought he’d be the collection reward

Many thought that!

The communication on the whole is absolutely terrible.

they have been silent since the all star game they don't want to face the community they are so tone deaf its sad.

Agreed. I refuse to buy that card on principle even if it’s needed to complete the Draft Kids Series. I just got Posada & Ozzie for less than 200K each. I’m about to collect the Boss and I think I’m going with Chipper. I’ll shoot for getting Ted at some point but I’m broke now. Ha ha

Don't blame you, mate.
I have the stubs but really don't want to engage with it.

Early days, but i'm enjoying Ted far more than Chipper so far.
Hope you have more success with Chipper.

@PapaRick68_MLBTS said:

So, bottom line - are the variants necessary?

There has been zero comms so no one knows.

I would hope they're like the Roch experiment and not required.
It'd be nasty work if they were.

Finally getting to use those Deluxe and Premier packs I've been collecting.

I've been selling all mine for 5,000 stubs apiece like an idiot.

Or at least exchange one for one on the duplicate vouchers. 3 for 1 is absolutely insane and reeks of greed.
