2009 Topps UFC: The Newest UFC Trading Card SetTopps Releases Second UFC-Themed Trading Card Set
A second UFC-themed trading card product will be released in time for the UFC Fan Expo, which will be held July 10-11, in conjunction with UFC 100. This news is according to a new report from Topps.
Entitled “2009 Topps UFC,” the series will feature a 165 card a set, as well as several special inserts and special-edition card sets.
The cards are considered a new brand rather than a follow-up series to the original Topps UFC Round One cards that were released in February.
According to the report, each hobby box includes 16 packs, and will retail for a suggested four dollars per pack. The hobby boxes are guaranteed to contain a minimum of two autograph cards, as well as at least two memorabilia cards.
The new set will feature some of the same fighters that were also contained in the first series of cards, but the new series will also feature some of the organization's newest fighters.
The report lists Jon Jones, Dan Miller, Jim Miller, Dan Hardy, Ryan Bader and as Efrain Escudero among the fighters included on the new product that were not featured in the first line.
Historic fighters from the UFC's nearly 16 years of history will be included in the set, as well. Additional special cards will include a ”Bloodlines” series, which will “showcase fighters and their diverse heritages” and cultural backgrounds, as well as “The Greats of the Game” series, which will feature graphics and statistics from the soon-to-be released video game from THQ, UFC 2009 Undisputed.
