in my opinion, Topps products have been really hit or miss the last 10 years. A set like 2018 became a classic, but I thought 2021 flagship was terrible. There are so many products. Series 1, Series 2, Update, Chrome, Chrome Update, Chrome Black and that doesn't even get into things like Heritage, Hi Tek, Stadium Club, etc. I get that there needed to be more product as the hobby revived itself, but I think it ultimately just went the same way it did in the 90s. It feels like they spent less time trying to really make flagship important and more time on producing tons of different sets with rare autos and parallels.
I've always been much more into vintage, but I think I will probably just make my long term project now to collect full, or mostly full, sets from 1951-1980. There is no rush, it can be a lifelong project. Unless Fanatics buys Topps and continues to make a Topps branded product, I will have lost all interest in modern cards.

I would buy factory sets each year but stopped about 10 years ago. I'd rather spend time and money on vintage.
Still would buy a pack or two each year, maybe Heritage, just to see what they look like. So, I am done with modern cards. Mike
