Flawless is back in briefcases and it is leaning all the way into the luxury lane. On-card ink, game-used swatches, and real gemstones are the core of the brand, and this season adds one more card per box so every hobby briefcase holds 11 cards.
Update is the last chapter of Topps’ flagship story each year, and I like thinking of it as the season’s scrapbook. Series 1 and Series 2 set the scene, then Update ties up the threads with call-ups, midseason moves, All-Star moments, and the odd headline that deserves a cardboard shoutout.
Topps Finest took a three year break from WWE, which left a chromium shaped hole on the wrestling shelf. With licensing back in the Fanatics camp, Finest returns with a design language wresting fans already know from baseball and basketball, plus a few twists that make sense for sports entertainment. If you like color, texture, and that layered refractor shine, this is the rip that pulls you in.

Samuel L. Jackson is putting ink to cardboard as Frozone for the first time ever, and the autos are landing in a Topps Chrome release.
