Topps Digital Strikes Again:

Press release
GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, March 30, 2021 - Topps Digital continues to introduce exciting new products on the WAX Blockchain. Building on its heritage as one of the first innovators in digital collectibles, Topps is celebrating Toho’s iconic franchise by bringing the studio’s classic monsters, including the King of the Monsters, Godzilla, to the modern platform of NFTs via the WAX blockchain on March 31 at 1pm EST / 10am PST.
 
For over 70 years, Topps has been the preeminent creator and innovator of physical cards and digital collectibles. Generations of fans have enjoyed the pleasure of collecting, trading and showing off their card collections, leading to the rapid and popular adoption of Topps’ sports and entertainment digital collectibles apps which it first brought to market in 2012. By establishing that digital collectibles are valued assets, Topps spurred the reimagination of what a collectible is and means to fans, setting the stage for the NFT craze sweeping the globe. The release of Godzilla Collection joins a rapidly growing portfolio of officially licensed Topps NFT collectibles, including the pop culture phenomenon and Topps’ owned IP, Garbage Pail Kids.
 
“We’ve been one of the first brands to fully embrace the potential of non-fungible tokens (NFTs),” said Tobin Lent, VP and General Manager of Digital at The Topps Company. “By partnering early with WAX and their state-of-the-art trading platform, we’ve been able to create a fun and accessible digital ecosystem for fans with all levels of experience. We are excited to debut our latest NFT set, featuring iconic imagery from the Godzilla franchise, and build on our initial successes of digital collecting to include interactive elements, increased security and transparent transactions.”
 
“We are constantly looking for exciting new ways for fans to connect with the Godzilla brand, and the Topps Digital Godzilla collection is something we’ve never offered before,” says Lora Cohn, Managing Director, Toho International, Inc. “Topps Digital has been at the forefront of the physical and digital card collectible space, so we are thrilled to work with their team on this offering. It’s no secret that NFTs are exploding in popularity right now, so we’re excited to give fans the opportunity to expand their Godzilla collections through the blockchain.”
 
In May 2020, Topps announced a partnership with the Worldwide Asset eXchange (WAX). Since then, their impressive portfolio on the WAX platform continues to be highly anticipated and sought after. On March 31, 2021, at 1 p.m. ET, Topps Digital will be releasing a new collection of NFTs on WAX that focuses on the legendary universe of Godzilla and the classic films. Fans will be introduced to Godzilla’s origins and the many iconic monsters from the series such as Godzilla, Mothra, Rodan, King Ghidorah and Mechagodzilla.

Although the value of NFTs lies in the data on the blockchain, the creative and dynamic imagery is what pulls people in. Discover a vast array of colorful characters and exciting scenes from the beloved Godzilla universe. There are over 160+ unique pieces of art in this collection including comic covers, motion cards, original illustrations, Chibi style animations, classic Topps “Rookie cards”, and much more.
