Item 8.01

Other Events.

On September 19, 2007, The Topps Company, Inc. (“Topps”) held a special stockholders meeting at which stockholders were asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, effective March 5, 2007, by and among Topps, Tornante-MDP Joe Holding LLC and Tornante-MDP Joe Acquisition Corp. Topps issued a press release on September 19, 2007 announcing that, based on a preliminary count of the votes cast at the special meeting, Topps stockholders have approved the pending merger agreement providing for the acquisition of Topps by The Tornante Company LLC and Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC. A copy of such press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated in this Item 8.01 by reference.

In light of the preliminary results of the stockholder vote on the merger and the expected closing of the transaction in October 2007, Topps does not expect to hold its 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the election of directors, among other things.
