Despite the fact that Topps hasn't appeared to have confirmed the short print list for 2010 Topps Series One Baseball, there's already early word on the variations for Series Two:
340 Cal Ripken Jr. (replaces John Buck)
350 Pee Wee Reese (replaces Price/Fielder/Braun Classic Combo)
360 Richie Ashburn (replaces Justin Morneau)
370 Thurman Munson (replaces Robinson Cano)
380 Mel Ott (replaces J.D. Drew)
390 Johnny Mize (replaces Ervin Santana)
400 Honus Wagner (replaces Alex Rodriguez)
410 Frank Robinson (replaces Oakland A's Team Card)
420 Dale Murphy (replaces Shin-Soo Choo)
430 Dizzy Dean (replaces Kazuo Matsui)
440 Nolan Ryan (replaces Willie Harris)
450 Eddie Mathews (replaces Omir Santos)
460 Jimmie Foxx (replaces Aaron Cunningham)
470 Mickey Mantle (replaces Yankees Team Card)
480 Tom Seaver (replaces Red Sox Team Card)
490 Roy Campanella (replaces Michael Bourn)
500 Tris Speaker (replaces Brad Lidge)
510 Eddie Murray (replaces yet-to-be-determined Classic Combo)
520 Ozzie Smith (replaces Randy Wells)
530 Ty Cobb (replaces Fu-Te Ni)
540 Ernie Banks (replaces Sean Rodriguez)
Not only is there a checklist, but they've also announced a finite print run: 3,000 copies of each variation.
Just getting this info early on instead of being surprised makes me personally feel much better, however there's no word on whether there'll be more pies to the face. Or if we're really unlucky we'll get some rookie variations with them dressed in their hazing garb).

Where did this info come from? Not that I don't trust you or anything, but I need corroboration in this duplicitous, Bip-happy world.
Magazine Exchange has an early checklist, sell sheet and set info posted. Combine the three and the set's coming together. I've just spent the past couple of hours reformatting the spreadsheet (including all base and inserts announced) into something that has some organization. I'll likely have it posted in the next 24-48.
Way to give Topps the idea on the hazing costumes. Not quite as annoying as pies to the face (just love that 1930s humor), but in the same ballpark.
How the hell did Brad Lidge get a hero number like 500?? and why is he connected with Tris Speaker while Justin Morneau is connected with Richie Ashburn??
regardless good work by you
