My good friend, Hammer, told me of a Topps shop opening in London this year. The web site is very glossy and mentions zero about the opening date apart from marking my calendar for a season of the year, no address, and absolutely no mention of non-sports cards. We will check it out and report back at some point.

I had heard something about one opening, but then heard nothing more and wondered if the whole thing had been shelved. I wonder if it will end up being in the Oxford Street/Regents Street/Piccadilly Circus area. It would have prime footfall around those parts.
Keep us posted.

I read about it on the Football Cartophilic Info Exchange on the 22nd January where they included details from Topps website with some artistic images of what it would look like. I believe it was copied from Topps website. It states that it will be in Regent Street. I seem to remember that there was a Disney Store in Regent Street, Is it still there or are they using the same site? It is due to be opened in Spring 2025 and is meant to be Fanatics first ever Collectibles store.

There is a small Topps/Fanatics store in the Westfield Shopping Centre at White City in London - just opposite the old BBC TV Centre.

It actually a bit scary just how many pies that Fanatics have thumbs in, particularly in the sports world. The amount of official sports stores that they seem to run seems to be ever growing.
