[[2016 Topps New Era]] is a nine-card set distributed nationwide at LIDS stores. Customers who purchase an MLB-licensed New Era hat at a participating LIDS store would receive a pack of four cards. Randomly inserted are Relics and autographed Relics.


The design is from the 2016 Topps flagship set, but with different photographs. Each card has a New Era logo on the reverse side and is sequentially-numbered with a "New Era" prefix -- the only things differentiating these cards from the flagship set.
[[2009 SP Legendary Cuts]] is a 200-card set released by Upper Deck June 3rd, 2009. The last 100 base cards are short-printed and are serial-numbered to 550 copies. Each 12-pack Hobby box will yield one short-print, seven 20th Anniversary inserts, three game-used memorabilia cards, and one dual memorabilia card. Each 16-box case should contain one 20th Anniversary memorabilia card, two autographs, two cut signatures, and one Mystery Cuts redemption card.
