2012 Topps Football Game Time Giveaway Guide
The 2012 Topps Football Game Time Giveaway is sending collectors back to their computers for a new virtual sweepstakes. Those busting packs of 2012 Topps Football have likely found redemption cards for the Game Time Giveaway that prompts them to go online and enter the code on the back of the card. Building off of the 2011 Topps Super Bowl Legends Giveaway, the new program offers new exclusive Game Time cards and football memorabilia giveaways.
Every Game Time Giveaway code unlocks either a virtual token or an exclusive Game Time football card. The tokens can be used in a virtual game that collectors can use to gain points to win prizes like autographed cards, helmets and footballs.

2012 Topps Football Game Time Giveaway Tokens
All 32 teams have a virtual token that can be unlocked. Every week of the NFL regular season, collectors can choose to play their token (if the team is playing). They get a point for every point the team on the token scores. Collectors can play up to five coins per week. For potentially high-scoring games, virtual coins can be played for both teams in a single match-up.
Individual tokens can only be played once, although it is possible to get multiple tokens of the same team.
The ten players with the most points at the end of each week get the autograph cards listed above.
At the end of the season, the top five players win an autographed helmet. The next five get an autographed football.
The first five collectors to unlock all 32 virtual coins get an autographed Andrew Luck card. The following five people get a Robert Griffin III autographed card.
