There was just one event on the MLB calendar on Monday and Bryce Harper stole the show -- and Topps Now has the baseball cards to reflect that.

This year's MLB All-Star Home Run Derby champ will be sitting down to sign a rainbow of autographs showing his victory, while four other players from that event will have their used socks make their way into memorabilia cards reflecting the exhibition.

As the clock counts down to the MLB All-Star break, the countdown clock ticks for a number of Topps Now All-Star offerings, too.

They come with and without autographs on the set side and they come with a bonus offer for the set for those in the MLB All-Star Home Run Derby -- and they're all available now for a limited time initially only via Topps.com.

There are eight set options for the MLB All-Star Game's participants alone with a nine-card American League set, an eight-card National League set, a 25-card NL reserves set and a 24-card AL reserves set. The starters are $29.99 a pop, while the reserves are $59.99. There are autographed versions of all sets (one auto per set) with prices from $99.99 to $199.99 due to the rosters of guaranteed signers seeded into them.
