Stature is back and it is doing something unusual by covering two seasons at once. The checklist splits right down the middle with 100 base cards, 50 tagged to 2023-24 and 50 to 2024-25, each mini set built the same way with 25 veterans, five legends and 20 rookies. The brand returns to thick, premium stock, a restrained design, and a promise that even quick breaks feel substantial.

Configuration is straightforward. Hobby boxes have one pack with five cards and typically deliver one autograph or memorabilia card, two numbered parallels, one numbered legend or rookie, and one veteran. Cases have 16 boxes, which keeps the overall print run feeling focused. Release is slated for September 17, 2025, with the usual “subject to change” caveat you see on modern hockey calendars.

The base set is the engine for everything else. Each year’s run has the same seven non-auto or memorabilia parallels, all serial numbered, starting at Green out of 375 and stepping down through Red out of 249, Orange out of 199, Blue out of 99, Gold out of 50, Purple out of 25, and Black out of 10. Boxes reliably yield two cards from that ladder, which is part of why team builders and player collectors like this product even when they are not chasing signatures.

Autographs lean into tiered scarcity rather than a sprawling insert menu. On average, base-set autos fall one in three packs at the product level, with color tiers numbered to 199, 99, 50, 25 and 10, plus short-print Purple to 5 and Black to 3. Stature also brings back patch and premium memorabilia autographs, starting at Auto Patch to 49, then Green to 35, Red to 25, Orange premium to 15, Blue to 10, Gold to 5, Purple to 3, and a one-of-one Black Auto Premium Memorabilia as the apex. The checklist sticks to the brand’s identity of on-card ink where possible, which is a big part of its appeal.

Relic cards mirror the autograph tiers so the parallel story stays consistent across the product. Patches start at 49 with Green to 35 and Red to 25, while premium memorabilia hits arrive in Orange to 15, Blue to 10, Gold to 5, Purple to 3 and Black one-of-one. The absence of extra insert sets keeps attention on the core checklist, the parallels, and the hits, which is exactly how previous strong Stature years have played.

Team collectors get two distinct runs to chase, one per season, which makes player projects simple to plan and checklists easy to complete. Hobby shops and online retailers are already posting presell pages with the box breakdown and date, so planning a case, a team break, or a targeted singles run is as easy as cross-checking the configuration and parallel tiers before release day.

For quick reference at a glance, hobby boxes are five cards, one pack, and two numbered parallels per box, with one autograph or memorabilia card guaranteed. The set size totals 100 cards across the dual-year format, and cases land at 16 boxes. Street date is tracking to September 17, 2025.
