Dump all of it fast, theyve already sold chrome update so all this stuff will crash when that comes out.

Opened 2 Hobby boxes.
Only card worth mentioning is a Gold (/50) Jeter First Pitch Card.

Flagship usually doesn't crash. With that being said though, its running way too high right now, so it does need to reset to a normal price range. Out the gate at around $1,700 a jumbo case is too high.

Default 2025 Topps Update: Pre-order, release day pricing

Got my two Hobbies today & ripped one. The good news, not a single card worth the money to grade so at least I’ll save a few bucks there. And 2 relics cards from the one box, maybe the least desireable, Maikel Garcia all star stitch and a Kevin Alcantara 90.

The bad news; undesireable relics.

Beyond that:
J Soler gold
C Paddack gold holo? /50
C Simpson silver pack / 99

Best card likely the base black gold of Jacob Wilson.

Keeping my other Hobby sealed.
Bought a single Jumbo today which I’ll rip, can’t possibly be worse than my hobby box AND hopefully will produce a set or at least almost where I can buy the needed singles on the bay.
Best of luck to all the rest of ya

No blacks on eBay so far... I think Topps dropped the ball again. This sucks.

Opened a single jumbo box.
Seems that two autos is the norm for jumbos. Unfortunately if you don't hit a Kurtz then you've got a steep hill to climb. Hit two common rookie autos and two relics. Two green refractors on the silver packs. Lowest #'d card was a gold rainbow /50.

2 autos in my jumbo as well. Plus a couple of relics.

Regarding Kurtz, I opened 1 jumbo and 1 hobby. The only Kurtz I got was a Topps Black Gold.

Yup...They have the ones to /10 again...Probably /299 too...No Blacks then no Hobby Wax in this house...

The Blacks in Topps Basketball are dreadful and sellers are still calling them Near Mint or better...

Fanatics doesn’t care just like most corporations...The products are still selling out...

It could actually be a blessing in disguise...

They probably used the S1 template for parallels and completely forgot they didn't include Blacks in S1.

This is probably what happened. Those Fanatics interns..

Don't see why Topps would axe the black in update when they included it in basketball.

Especially after the made it a point to make it a big deal they were putting them in S2 for S1.

Hopefully they do something about the black parallels but I’m not counting on it this time. There was a good amount of social media outrage in series one, haven’t seen much said this go around other than here. A shame we won’t have a Kurtz black and some others to chase.

I don't think many realize they aren't there yet. I'll mention it tonight on the Blabbin' show - that should get the word out.

Fedex taking their time with my boxes. Delivery rescheduled today, but guessing they're not coming today either since tracking has them still at the hub and not out for delivery.

Can Topps have made their website any stupider and harder to navigate?

Are their still boxes (not Chrome) available and can someone post a link please? Cant find it if available or sold out.

Yeah, I feel ya.

Two Hobby boxes:
2 napkin relics (Lowder, Ballesteros)
Best cards:
Chase Dollander Gold Mirror (#259)
Bobby Witt Bleacher Reacher /25

In two boxes:
Zero Kurtz RC (2 Debuts, though)
Zero Kristian Campbell RC (2 Debuts, though)

Definitely regretting my decisions to cheap out and spend $25 less and not buy that jumbo box.

Granted, plenty of crummy autos that I could have also pulled in a Jumbo, but I'd say it's pretty clear that JUMBOS are the way better value for hits of all types based on these posts and live breaks I've seen.
