Just saw over on Blowout that the jumbo boxes will only have 40 cards per pack, rather than 46. 60 less cards per box. Absolutely loving the direction that Topps is going under the ownership of Fanatics.
I suppose they are doing this so they don't have to increase prices. Just a guess. I haven't seen any prices yet.
 
Now even the Jumbo's are not safe from reduction of cards....and the price is higher than last year! No longer putting together two sets....from now on..one set with the duplicates being the rookie cards. Best regards, David

I just looked at the odds over on the topps site and it looks like 1 gold for every two hobby boxes. 1 Per jumbo box. They printed a TON of this stuff.

They are printing a ton of everything - it is almost like the late 80's/early 90's all over again. The only difference is that instead of pure base cards, they keep making up colored inserts of 500 to 1000 to make you think you are getting something special rather than what it really is, a watered down base card.

Curious to know if they changed the card count per pack in the blasters as well. They did not mention the blasters with the release info, or did I miss it somewhere?

Just trying to figure out if I will be opening any Topps product or just finding something different.

Thanks,

Here is what I found for Blasters: The release date is 02/28/2024. I'm sure I will be made a liar on that. Retail dates seem to be more sporadic.

Configuration:

  • 12 cards per pack.
  • 7 packs per box.
Look for 1 Stars of MLB Insert Card and 3 Holiday Base Parallels per box on average. Chase Retail Exclusive hits.

I just pre-ordered a hobby jumbo. The price actually has been going down. 2 years ago it was 210.00 for a hobby jumbo. Last year it was 194.00 for a hobby jumbo. This year it was 186.00 for a hobby jumbo. I am not sure if the boxes all held the same amount of cards or not though. I am assuming that they do but I could be wrong.

Checklist for base is out. Haven't seen the lists for inserts, etc.

If I remember correctly, there are 5 PC cards that I will be looking for parallels of.

Topps.com has the full checklist and odds for everything. If you go to shop boxes and packs and click on the sold out ‘24 series one boxes the option comes up on the right for the details. One of the table will be for checklist the other for odds across all platforms.

Was hoping to get out a day early and try and find a blaster or two, but mother nature kiboshed that idea. Just going to have to wait until tomorrow to find my way to the LCS.
