2007 Allen and Ginter does not dissappoint.  Topps took last year's hit set and did a little tinkering, but it is still an awesome product. 

New this year are mini insert sets of :

Deadliest Snakes (1 per case on average)

Roman Emperors (5 per case on average)

Flags of the World (2 per box on average)

There are 2 Specials per box and include: Game-Used Relics, Autographs (some short-printed to 200 and others signed in red and hand-numbered to 10) and printing plates (all 1 of 1).

The special Rip cards are back and are seeded about 1 per case.

Early reports are there are Autograph hot CASES.  A friend of mine opened a case and pulled only autographs - and more than the stated 2 per box average.  The case and a half I personally opened were more of the norm, with me pulling 4-5 autographs per case.

Below is a list of the 50 short prints in the main set:

UPDATE 9-5-07 - Beckett confirms that the short prints for the mini sets are the same numbers as the main set short prints.
