$200k Celebrity Polaroid Mystery, Disney Wonder Hits a New Market & SpongeBob Sales Soar

This week on Hobby Nonsense , Jesse is joined by Alex of Clever Cuban Cards while Ray’s out of town, and the two dive deep into a packed week of hobby news and insights! They start by uncovering hidden gems in recent card releases — and Alex shares a possible reason why some of the best content isn’t being marketed as much as it should be. Then, the guys discuss the new Topps Disney Wonder product , comparing it to the ongoing success of Disney Chrome . While it may seem like another Disney drop, they explain why this one targets a different collector base with its Princess focus and lower entry cost. Next up, they tackle the SpongeBob card explosion , with over 25 cards already selling for $3,000+ each in the first week! They debate whether SpongeBob could have serious long-term staying power — as long as Topps manages the print run wisely. Finally, Jesse and Alex break down an incredible $200,000 auction of candid, autographed celebrity Polaroids — featuring actors, musicians, athletes, and politicians — and speculate on what the card manufacturer that bought them might be planning to do with them. From Disney Princesses to SpongeBob profits and a $200K Hollywood mystery, this episode is packed with non-sport gold.
