Overview
- Series 1 is now on sale with a 350-card base set, and hobby boxes list 12 cards per pack, 20 packs per box, and one autograph or relic per box.
- Topps confirms the 1952 Mickey Mantle will be awarded through a redemption card to preserve condition, not inserted loose in packs.
- The Iconic 75 list was chosen by a panel of executives, historians and collectors, with Mantle ranked No. 1 ahead of Willie Mays, Hank Aaron and Jackie Robinson.
- Iconic Topps Buybacks will be delivered unstamped in PSA slabs, a break from prior stamped buyback programs to retain each card’s original look.
- Topps set a new rule making the 1952 design exclusive to flagship with a one-time use per player, and inserted experiential redemptions such as All‑Star and Home Run Derby tickets plus high‑value Topps/Fanatics gift cards.
