Checklist

Base Set

Rookie-Debut---Hunter-Brown.jpg?id=400d404a-b999-46e8-993b-aed6c5164c38&size=original&side=front&.jpg Rookie-Debut---Hunter-Brown.jpg?id=400d404a-b999-46e8-993b-aed6c5164c38&size=original&side=back&.jpg

The base set is rehash of the 2023 Topps Update base set. Repeating the checklist would be pointless.

We estimate 900 copies of each base card were produced.

Parallels

All 330 base cards are available in the following parallels.

  • Gold Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to 50 copies)
  • Orange Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
  • Black Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to ten)
  • Red Sapphire Refractor (serial-numbered to five)

Padparadscha Refractor/SuperFractor

Caleb-Hamilton.jpg?id=4164d053-5078-46be-90cb-cf36d81ca3ed&size=original&side=front&.jpg Caleb-Hamilton.jpg?id=4164d053-5078-46be-90cb-cf36d81ca3ed&size=original&side=back&.jpg

All 330 base cards have either a one-of-one Padparadscha or SuperFractor parallel. Those cards that appeared in the 2023 Topps Chrome Update set (and therefore already had a SuperFractor), will have a Padparadscha. Those that did not, have SuperFractors.
