Anywho, one of the cards I pulled was this Reggie Jackson variation from Topps Update.
This is at least the 4th Reggie Jackson Variation Topps has put out I do believe he had a Angels, Yankees, and A's cards in last years set. And doing a quick search I see he has at least one other variation in this years set as an Angel, so I will assume he has another Yankee variation out there as well so that brings us up to 6. Here are last years.
Now I'm a Reggie fan. But I'm kinda of a passive Reggie collector and very opportunistic in collecting his stuff. That means I'm cheap and when I find a Reggie I need that's a good deal I'll usually scoop it up. That being said I really like the Topps veteran variation cards. Now anybody who knows Reggie knows he was a hotdog and a little self absorbed. He knew he was good and he was cocky. Mainly because he was that good. He also played for 4 different teams in his career, 5 if you count the Athletics before they moved from Kansas City. Probably best remembered as an A or Yankee, Reggie also put in 5 season with the Angels and one long forgotten season with the Orioles.
I guess my wish would be that Topps would put out a nice Reggie variation in an Orioles Jersey or a KC Athletics with the KC logo on there. I love the ecclectia and those would be great oddballs.
Who would you like to see get there own Variation card and with what team?
There are some out there but I like Harmon Killebrew as a Washington Senator.
