Yeah I don’t get that. Soler and d’Arnaud still in Braves uniforms. They easily could have used Michael Harris II and Sean Murphy instead and held those 2 back for Series 2.

The checklist on the 2023 Topps Series 1 lists that set as a insert 1988 TOPPS BASEBALL with the "real one" parallel.
https://www.topps.com/media/pdf/2023...hecklistV2.pdf

This 2025 checklist lists an insert as 1990 TOPPS BASEBALL.
https://www.topps.com/media/pdf/MLB2...es-deleted.pdf

Same thing with the 2024 series 1 1989 Insert Set.
The FLAGSHIP REAL ONE AUTOGRAPH CARDS is another section, separate from the inserts. And the 1990 Insert has an auto section too.

Heritage as a sole product is likely dead in 2025.

Wouldn’t really make sense to jam 1975 motif autos into this set + the rookies aren’t rookies in 2025 sets.

The real ones are the likely explanation of base card design with on card autos.

I don’t know why everyone is writing off 2024 HHN. Fanatics released 2023 products into May of 2024.

I think I am in for only singles. Guys who I think will be in it that I will be chasing shouldn't be expensive.

It's fun to see James Wood on a non-Bowman checklist!

Ordered 1 Jumbo and 1 hobby/value.
I did really well on my 2024 Update bundle so here’s hoping twice the charm and that value box is juiced.

Oh and I didn’t see this in the thread but I think I twice had to do a 2FA at login and confirmation. Perhaps this is Topps’ way to beat the bots now? I don’t remember this a month back trying to get Sapphire Update which sold out in 30s.

No base Mookie Betts, but a 'Dancing Dodger' variation?

Fantastic combo.

Fanatics will have them closer to release date. Right now it’s just the preorder on Topps.com. We’re still a month out from true release.

Are they usually more expensive when listed on Fanatics?

Topps Pre-Order

If you order from Topps, Topps will send them directly to you. As stated by Rcoronoman, this is a pre-order and nothing will ship until February.

I don't think you will find these items for a cheaper anywhere else. Hobby boxes are 89.99 on Topps. There are a few that have already sold on eBay for over 120. I don't get it but people are already making sales at a higher price.

My apologies JW. You were asking about Fanatics and I gave you info about Topps. I need to pay closer attention to what is actually being asked.
