Topps Home Run Challenge redemptions
I have a successful home run challenge redemption from about a week ago. Says it's in process still. How long should I expect to receive the card? (Or at least to not say in process but something like "successful" or give me a date or something.
Thanks

Wait about a month after the month of April is completed. Congrats! Hopefully you have a player that doesn't hit many during the month. Last April, guessed a Bryce Harper and "won" a card # to 38 (he had a slow April). Collected his HR challenge cards each month for all of 2021. Fun little game. Passed along the "loser" cards to others for their PC's.

Do you actually scratch those? I got a Wander Franco and am not going to scratch it off.

It is well worth scratching to try and win. The bonus card if you pick a correct homerun date is worth much more than the unscratched version.

I have gone completely overboard this year with the Harper HRC Cards. Currently at 130 and counting. On track to be able to put one in for every game lol

I hit on a Giancarlo Stanton one last April and got the winner card in mid to late May if I remember right.
A few weeks back I picked Vlad Jr. and did the "double down" feature new for this season (HR has to travel 425+ feet and winning picks get an exclusive parallel).
Second AB he launched a moonshot into the upper deck in straightaway center. Excited to see what the card looks like!

Congrats - let us know what the exclusive parallel is.

Wow
I totally forgot about those cards
Got a George Springer /111 back in 2019
Haven’t been buying any 2022 cards yet, but those cards were very exciting and frustrating. I remember one player getting injured and my HR card chances were basically over.
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.
