[[1966 Bazooka]] is a 48-card set printed in three-card panels on the sides of boxes of Bazooka gum. Each cut-out card measures 1 9/16" X 2 1/2", while three-card panels measure 2 1/2" X 4 11/16". Uncut panels and whole boxes command a premium over cut-out single cards.
[[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.


The design is identical to the previous year's set, with the exception of the cards being sequentially-numbered "NO. X of 48 CARDS" on the front.

<div class="row">
[[2016 Topps Update]] is a 300-card set (100 cards smaller than [[2015 Topps Update|the previous year's set]]), released October 19th, 2016.  As usual, each Hobby box will yield one autograph or Relic, while Jumbo boxes will have one autograph and two Relics.
 
This set will have the first Topps flagship card of Baltimore Orioles All-Star catcher Matt Wieters.
</div>
 
<div class="row">
[[2016 Topps Five Star]] was released October 5th, 2016. All cards are autographed, and each box will contain two.
</div>
 
<div class="row">
[[2016 Triple Threads]] is a 100-card set originally scheduled for release September 14th, 2016, but was recalled due to undisclosed "packaging issues" and eventually released two weeks late on September 28th.
 
As usual, each seven-card Hobby pack will contain three base cards, two parallels, one triple Relic card serial-numbered to 36 copies or fewer, and an autograph serial-numbered to 99 copies or fewer.
</div>
<div class="row">
 
[[2016 Topps Heritage Minor League]] is a 215-card Minor League released September 28th.  Each 18-pack box will yield one autograph and one Relic card.
</div>
 
<div class="row">
[[2016 Bowman Chrome]] -- the 20th edition of this product -- is a 100-card set supplemented by a 100-card Prospects insert set, scheduled for release September 7th.  Each 12-pack Hobby box will yield two autographs.
 
2016 BowChro seeing the return of "Vending Boxes." Unlike the Vending Boxes of old, these are not designed to restock baseball card vending machines, and are closer to [[1992 Bowman's|1992 Bowman]] "cartons."  Each 80-card Vending Box will yield three autographs.
</div>
<div class="row">
[[2016 Topps Archives Signature Series All-Star Edition]] was released exclusively to Hobby outlets August 30th, 2016. 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.


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.
<div style="background:#cedff2; font-size:120%; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ccc; text-align:left; padding:0.2em 0.4em;">Just Released</div>


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).
<div style = "class">

On April 22nd, Topps announced drastic changes in 2016 Finest's distribution.  Those Hobby dealers who pre-ordered Finest directly from Topps would have their orders honored. (Finest was solicited to Hobby dealers from November 25th, 2015 to January 13th, 2016 at a direct price of around $600 for an eight-box case.) However, reportedly due to low pre-sales, Topps would not make Finest available to Hobby distributors or to online retailers and instead would sell it directly on the Topps.com website for $99.99 a box or $799.89 for an eight-box case.
* Two Relics (one of which is a Quad Relic)
* One Autograph
* One Autographed Relic

Set of the Month

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.

Previous Sets of the Month
