=Description=
 
2006 Topps Updates & Highlights is a 330-card set released in November, 2006.  2006 marked the first year of the MLB's "ROOKIE CARD" icon program, where a player actually had to appear in a Major League game before he could appear in a Major League trading card set. This severely impacted the Updates & Highlights brand as, previous to 2006, it was the only Topps-branded product (not including Bowman) allowed to feature non-40 man roster players (e.g. draft picks and low-Minors prospects).
 
The first 132 cards in this set feature players who were either traded, free agent signings, or veterans who were otherwise not included in the first two Topps series.  Cards numbered 133-170 feature 2006 Rookies while cards numbered 171-181 are 2006 Season Highlights. Cards 182-201 are a Postseason Highlights subset, cards 202-217 are the 2006 League Leaders. 218-282 feature the complete rosters of the 2006 All-Star Game while 283-290 have the contestants in the Home Run Derby, cards 291-320 were Team Leader cards and the set concluded with ten Classic Duos (321-330).

'''NOTE:''' 2006 was the first year of the MLBPA's new rules regarding rookie cards.  Although each card in this subset has the standardized "ROOKIE CARD" icon, and each player made their Major League debut during the 2006 season, most of these players had their "true" rookie card in a pre-2006 set.  These players are designated with an "(RC)".

Inside each 2006 Topps Updates & Highlights factory set are three exclusive Limited Edition parallels.  Each card had the words "LIMITED EDITION" stamped in (rather small) gold foil on the front.

In lieu of releasing a stand-alone Chrome edition of Updates & Highlights, Topps instead issued this 50-card set.  One card from this set was packaged as a box-topper in every Hobby wax and HTA Jumbo box.  The cards were packaged in a clear fin-sealed pack, and it is common to see these packs unopened.
 
Cards #CRC1-CRC38 are a pseudo-parallel of the base set's Rookie subset (cards #UH133-UH170), while cards #CRC39-CRC50 are of players who do not appear in the base set. 
Each card is serial-numbered to 599 copies with a Refractor parallel, numbered to 59, also available.

Description

2006 Topps Updates & Highlights is a 330-card set released in November, 2006. 2006 marked the first year of the MLB's "ROOKIE CARD" icon program, where a player actually had to appear in a Major League game before he could appear in a Major League trading card set. This severely impacted the Updates & Highlights brand as, previous to 2006, it was the only Topps-branded product (not including Bowman) allowed to feature non-40 man roster players (e.g. draft picks and low-Minors prospects).

The first 132 cards in this set feature players who were either traded, free agent signings, or veterans who were otherwise not included in the first two Topps series. Cards numbered 133-170 feature 2006 Rookies while cards numbered 171-181 are 2006 Season Highlights. Cards 182-201 are a Postseason Highlights subset, cards 202-217 are the 2006 League Leaders. 218-282 feature the complete rosters of the 2006 All-Star Game while 283-290 have the contestants in the Home Run Derby, cards 291-320 were Team Leader cards and the set concluded with ten Classic Duos (321-330).

For the first time since Traded/Updates revival in 1999, a Chrome edition was not issued.

Cory Lidle In Memoriam

Cory Lidle, who was traded from the Phillies to the Yankees in mid-season, perished in a plane crash about a month before the release of Updates & Highlights. Topps was able to include an "In Memoriam" notation on his card (#UH73).

NOTE: 2006 was the first year of the MLBPA's new rules regarding rookie cards. Although each card in this subset has the standardized "ROOKIE CARD" icon, and each player made their Major League debut during the 2006 season, most of these players had their "true" rookie card in a pre-2006 set. These players are designated with an "(RC)".

In lieu of releasing a stand-alone Chrome edition of Updates & Highlights, Topps instead issued this 50-card set. One card from this set was packaged as a box-topper in every Hobby wax and HTA Jumbo box. The cards were packaged in a clear fin-sealed pack, and it is common to see these packs unopened.

Cards #CRC1-CRC38 are a pseudo-parallel of the base set's Rookie subset (cards #UH133-UH170), while cards #CRC39-CRC50 are of players who do not appear in the base set. Each card is serial-numbered to 599 copies with a Refractor parallel, numbered to 59, also available.
