2020 Topps Sapphire Chrome Update

Description

2020 Topps Sapphire Chrome Update was released January 27th, 2021 -- with members of Topps' 582 Montgomery Club getting access a day earlier. Unlike the Topps Chrome Update set, the Sapphire Chrome edition is a full parallel of the 300-card 2020 Topps Update set. Each eight-pack box will yield one Refractor parallel serial-numbered to 45 copies or fewer and one autograph.

This was the first Sapphire Chrome set to be made available at retail with a limited number of boxes available at Target stores and target.com. In addition, a limited number of boxes were also distributed to Hobby stores.

Distribution

Eight packs per box, four cards per pack (MSRP: $150)

Checklist

Base Set

See 2020 Topps Update for checklist.

Parallels

All 300 base cards are also available in the following parallels.

• Green Refractor (serial-numbered to 45 copies)
• Orange Refractor (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
• Purple Refractor (serial-numbered to ten)
• Red Refractor (serial-numbered to five)
• SuperFractor (one-of-one)

Padparadascha

2020 Topps Sapphire Chrome Update has two different one-of-one parallels: SuperFractor and Padparadascha. Based on the stated insertion ratios for each set, it is impossible that Padparadascha's exist for all 300 cards. We believe that only 130 base cards have a Padparadasha.

Autographs

Each Autograph is also available in the following parallels.

• Green Refractor (serial-numbered to 50 copies)
• Orange Refractor (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
• Purple Refractor (serial-numbered to ten)
• Red Refractor (serial-numbered to five)
• SuperFractor (one-of-one)
