2025 Topps Baseball Design Revealed

Handsome Wes · 01-09-2025, 09:40 AM

(Starting a new thread here)

Here's Aaron Judge on Topps' flagship product for this year.

I'm getting 2019 Topps vibes here (which I wasn't super thrilled with). I wish they went back to the full bleed like they had between 2016-2018 (and then again in 2020).

Not a huge fan at this point - but I wasn't when I first saw 2024 and I really like those now. Same with 2008. Maybe these will grow on me.

It’s fine. I like it, not an all-timer for me though.

MiamiMarlinsFan · 01-09-2025, 09:42 AM

I need to see what the Indy #/76 parallels look like before passing final judgement.

Thanks for the picture. All the links that has been shared looked to be taken down.

Reminiscent of 1982.

Handsome Wes · 01-09-2025, 09:42 AM

Kinda a hybrid of 1982 and 1984 (with a little bit of 2019) as well:

Hmmm. That's strange.

bhundley · 01-09-2025, 09:44 AM

My first thought is that the same person who designed the 2024 Brooklyn base designed this.

NYRE2PECT · 01-09-2025, 09:44 AM

I really like it!

But, the Diamond Dot scheme is meh.

JMStang · 01-09-2025, 09:45 AM

Interesting how position is noted in the diamond in the corner.

It looks nice other than the position designator. Where are they going to place a DH on that. At the plate?

Was coming here to say the same thing

rcgdodge · 01-09-2025, 09:53 AM

I really like it! Looking forward to get my Phillies team set.

It's cardbaord.. Sheep will still buy it

Scottish Punk · 01-09-2025, 09:57 AM

Looks fine. The only thing that bugs me is the last curve from the pipe along the top feels out of place. I think it would look better if it would just end at the border of the picture rather than the card. Throws off the centering of the picture for me.

Or just extend it horizontally to the edge that way. The abrupt curve to the top seems odd.

What a crazy thing to say on a baseball card forum. According to you, everyone here, including you, are sheep.

Anything was going to be a departure from 2024. It's interesting. I guess my first take (after it being similar to Brooklyn) is that is has a solid but forgettable mid-90s workout clothes aesthetic. Like some Champion sweats.

Bunny Hop · 01-09-2025, 10:07 AM

I want to see the backs.

Hollywood42 · 01-09-2025, 10:07 AM

I like it, minus the position icon in the bottom right

anusinha · 01-09-2025, 10:09 AM

im guessing every grader at PSA is going interpret the L/R centering differently and grades will be random.

mikejones · 01-09-2025, 10:18 AM

Ok I'll say it. That design is ugly as hell.

That was the first thing that popped into my head. 1982.

This might not be the right thread for you.

ledgewerx · 01-09-2025, 10:25 AM

I like the overall design but agree with a couple of the criticisms already leveled.

I don't like the position designator and I don't like how the piping turns up on top of the card.
