[[1991 Bazooka]] is a 22-card set produced by Topps. Also known as the "Shining Stars," the set's design is similar to the year's Topps Baseball base set. One card was inserted into specially-marked boxes of Bazooka bubble gum.
[[2009 Kellogg's Japan]] is a set of six "rulers" produced for the Japanese market. Each ruler measures fifteen centimeters and features lenticular printing of the player "in action." Unlike the previous two year's Kellogg's Japan sets, these "cards" do not have the Upper Deck branding.

<div style = "class">
[[2024 Topps Update]] is a 350-card set released October 16th. You know the deal.
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">


[[2017 Honus Bonus Baseball]] is a 500-card trading card game.  The set is being produced and distributed by Rittenhouse Archives, a noted producer of non-sports cards.  This is Rittenhouse's first baseball set, but not their first sports card product as they have had the WNBA license for a few years.  Due to their exclusive license with Topps, Honus Bonus is NOT licensed by MLB Properties and does not have logos.  The product is licensed by the MLBPA.
<div style = "class">

</div>
<div class="row">
 
[[2017 Topps Gypsy Queen]] is a 320-card set. In response to lagging sales and collector interest, Topps has reconfigured the Gypsy Queen brand at a lower price point.  Gone are the one-per-pack mini parallels, as well as the two-per-Hobby box Relics -- although each 24-pack Hobby box will continue to yield two autographs.  The ten-card "mini-box," which had been a Gypsy Queen staple, is also replaced by an oversized GQ Reflections box topper.
</div>
</div>


<div class="row">

<div class="row">

As with the [[2015 Topps Archives Signature Series|previous year's product,]] each box contains one encased autographed buyback card which is stamped as coming from this product and serial-numbered.


Rather than the plastic "slabs" Topps had used in the past (in brands like Topps Tribute and eTopps), each card is encased in an off-the-shelf BCW Mini Snap magnetic holder with a sticker sealing it shut. Since One Touch holders can only fit standard-sized (2 1/2" X 3 1/2") cards, all pre-1957 Topps cards (which measure 2 5/8" X 3 3/4") used in this product are encased in top-loaders.  
<div style = "class">
[[2023-24 Topps Chrome Platinum Anniversary]] is a 500-card set, released May 22nd, 2024.  All cards are on chrome stock and are done in the style of the [[1954 Topps]] set.


As the subtitle of the product's name suggests, each player was at one point in their career an All-Star.  New for 2016 are multi-player autographs and autographed game-used Relic cards.
Each 24-pack Hobby box will yield six Refractors, an X-Fractor, and an autograph.


There appears to be a significant number deceased players -- some dead for over a decade.  It is unclear how Topps acquired these cards (i.e. whether these players signed for Topps before their death, or if these autographs were purchased by Topps from third-parties).
Although marketed as a "2023" product, for rookie card purposes, BCP considers this to be a 2024 set.
