Topps NOW UEFA Champions League (2021-22)
Topps
50+ cards
This season's Topps NOW cards for the UEFA tournaments start with one to commemorate Chelsea winning the UEFA Super Cup. Cards are available direct from Topps.com with sales open for 7 days. There were at least 3 cards originally shown on the Topps website, before I could download all the images two of the cards disappeared. No doubt they'll re-appear later today or tomorrow so I will add them at the earliest opportunity.
UPDATE (16-08-2021 18:19): They're back!!!
UPDATE (18-08-2021 18:52): The Raphaël Varane card has just been made available. The Topps website claims that the parallel card numbered to 10 is blue, but it's actually red. I'm colour-blind but they can't fool me!
UPDATE (20-08-2021 15:44): The Romelu Lukaku card has just appeared on Topps.com.

Le numéro 004 pour Varane est étonnant car auparavant on a eu Aguero PS01, Ramos PS02, Sancho PS03, Malen PS04 et Grealish PS05. Je suis perdu. Pourquoi Topps a noté 004 ?
ReplyDeleteHi Thierry,
DeleteThe design for PS01, PS02, PS03, PS04 and PS05 is similar to the 2020-21 Champions League NOW series and I have dated them as being 2020-21. Topps have now added the Raphaël Varane card, but it's part of the 2021-22 collection and that's why it is numbered '004'.

Does PS mean post-season or pre-season? I thought pre-season but from your post, perhaps it's post!
DeleteHi Chris,
DeleteThe 'PS' does mean Pre-Season. Topps used the 2020/21 design so I've tagged the Pre-Season cards on the end of the 2020/21 series:
