2024-25 Bowman Chrome University Basketball

features all ac+ve NCAA players with both men’s and women’s standouts being featured. Among them is

Cooper Flagg, one of the top names projected for the 2025 NBA DraE. This is the first mainstream collegiate

card for the Fana+cs-exclusive athlete, although he was previously in 2024 Topps Chrome McDonald’s All

American Basketball (discussed on the episode released February 15th). All 100 cards have more than two

dozen different Refractor parallels. Stealth versions are only in “breaker’s delight” boxes while mega boxes

have exclusive Shimmer Refractors. Wave Refractors can only be found in blasters. The main set also acts as

the founda+on for the Base Prospect Autographs. All 100 players have signatures in the product including even

more Refractors here.

Set Size: 100

4 Cards per Pack | 24 Packs Per Box

Each Hobby Box has; 2 Autographs

Cost: $300

Verdict: Better Get My Donuts 2/5

2024 Panini Select Baseball

puts some addi+onal shine on a broad mix of players, primarily from the past and with eyes for the future. The

product s+cks with the Select formula, which includes a +ered base set, large rainbows and lots of inserts.

Autographs land two per hobby box. They’re joined by one memorabilia card. All cards, no maXer the +er,

have an assortment of parallels as well, some of which go into mul+-color paXerns. Tie-Dye, Zebra and one-of-

one Gold Vinyl are among those to watch for. The 10-card Color Wheel is among the toughest chases in the

product. Autos appear to be s+cker. Checklist consists primarily of re+red stars and prospects. A very small

number of ac+on veterans also make their way into the product. There’s a card of Willie Mays that I really like.

Set Size: 300

5 Cards per Pack | 12 Packs Per Box

Each Hobby Box has; 2 Autographs, 1 Memorabilia Card, 9 Inserts, and 12 Parallels

Cost: $180

2024 Topps Inception Football

sees another one of the company’s modern brands return to the gridiron. Like its original run that debuted late

in Topps’ run with the NFL license before Panini’s exclusive, designs are as colorful and abstract as ever. Like

Topps’ other 2024 football products, most of the checklist is split between re+red greats and rookies. A couple

of veterans have snuck in as well, but not many. First-year players account for 50 cards in the base set. ShiEing

into the premium content, the checklist has four different themes for autographed memorabilia: Dual Rookie

Relic Autographs, Franchise Founda+on Relic Autographs, Provenance Patch Autographs, and Rookie Jumbo

Relic Autographs.

Autographs: Appear to be ON CARD

Set Size:TBA

7 Cards per Pack | 1 Packs Per Box

Each Hobby Box has; 2 Autographs, 1 Memorabilia Card, 2 Parallels, 2 Base Cards

Cost: $250

Verdict: That is some high quality H20
