Depends on your definition of hot. Hot as in T206 hot? Nah. Hot as in will prices go back up? My guess is yes.

They are so much tougher than T206 and T205 and while rarity isn't the only barometer in determining collectability, it's important to remember that they were previously more valuable. I've been working on a set for the past year and can't tell you how many times I've heard from sellers that the rarer commons in particular used to command so much more. Prices have cooled a little but that happens with most sets. There's a lot of ups and downs in collecting.

I was drawn to them after working on T205 and T206 and I suspect others have taken that path. As more collectors work on those sets and look for an alternative, I think more will find T207. And the challenge of completing a set will be attractive to some as well.

I personally enjoy the cards. I don't think the aesthetics are real great but there are some poses that I really, really like. They're a win with me but that's more in a context of just enjoying the T205, T206, and T207 sets collectively. Each is distinctly different and I enjoy each one for different reasons.
