1st Box Busted!

Once again Beckett gets the honor of posting the first box of 2009 Topps UFC and Tracy and Bryan do not disappoint as both knowledgeable and entertaining hosts.

WE ARE LIVE!

It's true folks. After several delays, cases of the 2009 Topps UFC trading cards are leaving the warehouse and are out to stores in time to hit the street date of September 30th.

For a look at some of the cards and the first review click here: http://beta.beckett.com/group/475770/?tab=tabArticles&p=810608#ViewArticle

The Ultimate Foto comparisons

Randomly inserted in the 2009 Topps UFC trading card packs, collectors will find signed cards from the participants in seasons 9 and 10 of The Ultimate Fighter.

The fighters also received copies of their cards as souvenirs to keep, trade, give to their friends and family, etc. These cards were not signed in the presence of Topps or UFC representatives and therefor can not be authenticated as such. Topps also does not place any hologram stickers on the cards front or back.

Below are side-by-side comparisons of both the Topps Issue (top) and Fighter Issue (bottom) for both TUF 9 and TUF 10. Please note the "Topps Certified Autograph Issue" above the fighter autographs. Also note that "Topps File Copy" does not appear on the front of the actual Fighter issue cards.
