2014 Topps Fire Football Cards

The design grew on me. I like the different more artistic approach. That being said the sticker autos looks horrible with this product and there are barely any Cowboys on the checklist, 0 Cowboy Autographs. That is a fail.

Probably my fav NFL card series from the past year, enjoyed collecting Fire a lot. Kudos Topps, insane card art. Really hope this will be a continuing set not a one and done.

best looking cards I’ve collected. Fresh spin on things

Not bad. Card quality looks good. Just not the design for me.

Overall, not bad looking card. Fun to collect. Anyone have any idea of the print run of the fire autographs? I have only seen 2 jordan matthews, fa-jm on ebay since it was released. Just wondering how rare they are?

If you’re going to try to pull the big name rookie patch autos, stick to retail. I have noticed a common trend. The Beckham, Bortles, Bridgewater, etc., RPA’s are all being pulled out of blasters, hangers and retail packs. The only big name you can pull out of hobby is if you are lucky enough to hit a 1/1.

I agree with Stephen ^^ Best product of the football season. Well done Topps, cards seem to be more unique than your standard sets. I’ve bought a handful of retail boxes and 3 hobby boxes and every pack I open I’m seeing slightly different designs which look amazing.

Don’t worry Kevin, the Cowboys will definitely have their fair share of autos/relics in all of the products next year. Considering we were NFC East Champs and won a Divisional Playoff Game. You can see the trend this year by looking at how companies are treating the Ravens. Go Cowboys!

Best product of the football season, just edging out Valor. Fire has a very bold design and a unique card for each player in the set. It is a lot different that what we normally see in the card world today. I would pick this up right away, as I’ve personally spent $100 on this in the first two weeks.
For $80-$90, a hobby box is a bargain. With 4 hits (2 autos and 2 relics,) this box is cheaper than a Jumbo box of Series 1 and still provides more hits.
A must!!!! All hail Topps!!!!!!!! All hail!!!!

Like the new card design. A bit retro akin to Skybox metal but a nice break from the basic card out there.

Topps Fire card designs are unreal. For the people that hate it the product obviously isn’t for you. it’s a targeted series, not for everyone but my friends are all rushing to get them.

Not bad for a mid-end product. Design just a bit too busy for me but I’m happy with the ones I’ve gotten so far.

Loving these cards. Best of 2015 so far

on the checklist who are #s 101-105 it doesn’t say

My favorite set of cards ever. Has a refreshing combination of a modern artistic look with a retro 90’s card look. Something different that is needed. Now watch Panini follow this trend…

I tested the product by picking up a $9.99 hanger box from Target. I was very impressed with what I pulled.

72 total cards:
1 Fire Rookie Auto Patch (Bortles RC #’d/50)
2 Purple Parallels (Base #’d/499)
1 Forges of Fire Diecut (Bortles RC)
1 Out of this World (K. Benjamin RC)
1 Competitive Fire (Newton/ K. Benjamin)
4 Fire Foil Parallels
17 Rookie Base
45 Base

I can’t believe another Topps football product with no Dallas Cowboys autos.

Anyone else notice the tom savage base rookie says he’s a wr on the front, but on the back a qb? I really don’t know how they let stuff like this get through to final print…

Topps Mis-Fires here with much anticipated release. Product features a new twist bit fails to deliver. This is same product as Topps Valor with some variations to set checklist the same hits can be expected. Topps promised an Autographed set checklist that would have a mix of Veteran and Rookies. Same veterans featured in Valor. The look is awesome but very average for hit seekers.

The design is pretty nice but the sticker autos bug me. This is essentially Valor with more color and insert sets. This product would be rated much higher if it wasn’t rookie focused in terms of hits because I have all of this rookie class’s autos. They need a set in this price range with almost exclusively made up of veteran players.

Just got 2 boxes of these. All I can say is they’re FRESH! Nice to see a more creative theme of cards on the market. Probably the best looking cards I’ve ever purchased.

At first I did not care for the design, but after a case break of fire I am sold on them. It is a breath of fresh air in cards and some of them are downright awesome. Numbered to 500 is not so good but the dual signatures are awesome looking. Give them a change and they wont disappoint

Wish I could give it 0 stars. This was worse than Hot Rookies

Terrance, you can’t fail a product based on a super low res sample. With these type of designs I can see a lot of detail in them so you have to wait until you see them in person before you can judge. Plain lazy, you’re the one kidding, most series of cards are so template driven where these are far more unique than any I’ve come across. If you like boring stuff then you won’t like these cards. So that might be your problem.

Terrance>> A breath of fresh air? Are you kidding me? You don’t have to be an artist or a designer to see that these designs are just plain lazy and ugly to the fullest extent!! My god!! Some of the colors are just god awful and the
“Splash effect” they tried to do is a DEFINITE FAIL!!!!

lets just try and copy court kings topps just sell out already to someone who cares more about the hobby. And stop putting players in our product that are not in the NFL sorry you got the wrong guys to sign take it on the chin like a man and send them to a 3rd world country with water or just give them away to kids, not try to get your money back on our dime. Step it up or get out plain an simple!

Got a buyer here. Wow, I love them and so will my sons

Totally disagree with you Jerry. I can tell you’re not a designer or artist. The card game is so damn generic and boring, these are a fresh of breath air, something the memorabilia industry needs to. Take it what it is, these look great and far more creative than a player slapped on a standard gradient box or shaded background as we see too often. Keep the design work to the designers.

Ive got to agree Jerry B. It looks like they took a bunch of factory pre set screen savers from a 1996 dell desk top PC. They need to quit worring so much about the “post card” back ground design and make a crisp, clean looking card with some sick GU/Patches and we’ll all be happy. But you can go ahead and ship that manziel and Wilson to my crib, ill go ahead and take those off your hands.

These are the worst designed cards I have ever seen. It’s like they hired some clown from the instagram to add some modern effects to these cards. I appreciate good modern design when it is relevant and appropriate, but this looks bad.

The artist who made these needs to stick to internet designs, because he or she clearly doesn’t realize how to do decent print based designs.

These look fantastic. Something different and outside of the box in regards to trading card designs which are conservative and repetitive at times. Can’t wait to see them in person as the pictures are very low res here, is that just me noticing?

Sticker autos, a no go for me. I like the Valor design more than this one.

Awesomeness in the vein of Skybox Metal. Will buy.

I don’t mind the design of the cards. But one thing stands out significantly. The stickers! A lot of times the sticker seems to blend in. Maybe it’s just how these cards are being presented here. Hopefully it’s not that bad live. But the design is growing on me.
