Yes, the league is bankrupt, but the Topps trading card release is still happening. I should post a review of the set in the next day or so, as I have obtained a hobby box and will crack it open once it arrives... hopefully soon.

At least there is one more piece of fun to be had from this league.

Hobby box breakdown

- 24 packs of 10 cards.
- Good card distribution. There was one complete base set of 175 cards in the box.
- Numbered Parallels: Phillip Nelson #11/25; Quinton Flowers #29/50; Jalen McClendon #42/99; Tim Cook #56/99;
- Three autograph cards: Nick Novak, Deatrick Nichols and Jamar Summers.
- Four Stars of the XFL inserts: Matt McGloin, L'Damian Washington, Tre' Williams and Cameron Artis-Payne.

Overall:
- Coach cards are cool.
- Autograph cards are decent. However, no memorabilia cards.
- Many players in practice uniforms, especially QBs pictured in red practice jerseys. Seems awkward in some cases.

It's the only XFL 2020 trading card set you are ever going to get. Enjoy it for all its worth!

I will wait until the excitement goes down and buy a box of these cards when they are on sale. Topps will be dumping them cheap in about six months.

So if you buy the box you're guaranteed an entire set?
