Inserts

Rookie Cup Reprints

This set serves as a pseudo-parallel of the first 150 cards of the base set, featuring reprints of their original Topps Rookie Cup-bearing card. Please refer to the base set checklist for a full checklist. Each Hobby pack contained two reprints, while retail packs had one.

A Chrome edition was exclusive to Hobby boxes, and was packaged in it's own wrapper and inserted as a box topper. Each Chrome Rookie Cup Reprint was serial-numbered to 25 copies and available in the following Refractor parallels.

  • Refractor (serial-numbered to 15 copies)
  • Gold Refractor (one-of-one)

Manufactured Relics

Original Relics

This unique 428-card, Hobby-exclusive, set features various All-Star Rookie winner's Topps cards that were bought-back for this set. Topps then cut-out the Rookie Cup from the original card and replaced it with a manufactured metal relic in the shape of a Rookie Cup. The cut-out original and the manu-relic Cup were then glued onto a second copy of the bought back card, giving it the appearance of an original card. Each is serial-numbered to the production figures listed below.
