A Fortnight of 2013 Topps: Day 1

It's that time of year when the ash begins to fall from the eruption of 2013 Topps Series 1.  We've all had time to pick up some cards, read some reviews, and develop some opinions.  I've enjoyed seeing everyone's perspective, and it's time to do my extensive review.  I enjoyed doing a fortnight of posts last year, as it forced me to look at and consider each card of each pack.

This year's damage:

5 Rack Packs, 2 Retail Packs, 2 Jumbo Packs.

That's 5 * 36 + 2 * 12 + 2 * 50 = 304 cards.

Call them what you will, but with Fielder on the front, all of these are fat packs. I think this pack design is a step up from last year's design.
