I’m confused. I never received that Topps email but my order was for hobby boxes only. Will there be chrome in the hobby SKU? Does this mean they’re planning a stand alone 2025 Stadium Club Chrome release for 2026? What is going on here lol?

They sent the email out because the value/mega boxes were available for sale when they switched the images.

No one really noticed the hobby box "16 base chrome cards" until a week later, and long after the boxes had sold out.

The odds sheet, sell sheet, and checklist do not support any version of Stadium Club having base chrome cards. The only thing that mentions them is a likely out-of-date hobby box product image. It is extremely unlikely there are base chrome cards in hobby or else they would advertise it to get people to buy more.

It more than likely will be the case but one can hope it's not,right?

none today

Did finally find another blaster of Archives, have struck out several times recently.

When I can wager my hard earned wages on a new blaster of Stadium Club with nothing in it except cool looking Baseball Cards? I wish this would come out vending box style with zero hits. But nobody wants that, we must have lottery tickets to scratch, every time.

I do hope they ditch those absurd “Master Photos” - a Baseball Picture Card product that is simultaneously too big, and too small - quite an achievement in pointlessness. So I hope my blaster has some sort of new pointless gimcrackery in it this year.

looks like the cheapest is on fanatics.com for 49.99 USD, so $70.65 AUD.

I suspect we should see some good deals on singles and numbered cards by the time Heritage hits, Just seems like hype for SC is dead in the water with Series 1 being the go to product right now and anticipation for Heritage growing by the minute.

Saw on Reddit that the megas indeed do NOT have chrome base from someone that received theirs. And the insert designs are atrociously bad.

Truly sad what has happened to Stadium Club.

When I found out there, it wasn’t gonna be any chrome. It was very disappointing.

I noticed that black and whites no longer say hobby only which has been a tradition for a long time. Red, bronze and blue listed as hobby only. Wonder what the print run will shake out to for these and interested to see what the bronze parallel looks like

This is a product, like Black & White, where the "color" is actually overkill and detracts from the visual appeal of the cards.

All the color just drowns the photography....

It doesn't say B&W are hobby exclusive on Beckett but odds sheet shows they can only be pulled in hobby boxes. Just a heads up.
