“ Is this card really that small? Seems almost stamp sized! ” -Billy Kingsley
“ I like micro/mini cards now. Back in the day, I hate to say, I threw them away!! My OCD was even worse then, and basically, they weren't even!! ” -RoyalChief
“ Rated #1 in a recent "Worst to Sort" poll. These cards are a pain to handle. ” -DaClyde
“ Uggg. Micros. Who was the audience? Ken dolls? ” -cjjt
“ I know he's in his pitching motion but it looks like he's taking a pinup position. Give me sexyness, click! ” -JimStaub
“ Plunk aka one of the ugliest baseball players of all-time! ” -carthage44
“ At the time these came out I liked the nostalgic idea of these. Remind me of the late 60s early 70s stamps and "four in ones" Topps would make. Now days with the proliferation of minis in just about every Topps set and some of the sets from other card makers I am done with tiny cards that are more than 1/2 the standard size. ” -captkirk42
“ So tiny, and so many of the cards in my factory set were terribly miscut. With this set, it was almost as though Topps was saying "we don't have to keep up with the other manufacturers, because we have 40 years of history"....but they abandoned their tradition the very next year in favor of white card stock and colorful backs. ” -dilemma19
“ I can proudly say that I have none of these. ” -NJdevils
“ When it comes to a point where you have to consider using a magnifying glass to see stats....for me it's a pass on that. I love minis but this is beyond that point! ” -Joshua825
