Horrible checklist. Topps must have some disgraced daddy Reyna (29 MLS appearances) stickers to get rid of.

Super excited for this, the strongest Auto checklist in an MLS set we've ever had

Meola and Hartmann the only GK's in the set.. spanning 30 years of the MLS?

No Keller, Friedel, Howard, Guzan, Rimando?

Keller, Howard and Friedel are three of the greatest US players to have ever lived. No biggie ignoring them I guess lol.

No Donovan, Lalas?

Beckham, Keane, Vela, McBride?

I'll add some others.

Marco Etcheverry. The best player of the 90s.

Marcelo Balboa (+ his TV work for MLS/US Soccer in English and Spanish)

Dwayne De Rosario (too bad he and A. Davies didn't play in the same era)

Bruce Arena

.. and while I understand that Cavan Sullivan is the next 'big thing' in US Soccer, the kid has played just 170 minutes of football.

I guess Topps had to squeeze a RC chase into the set though, despite it 'celebrating' thirty years of 'history' not future prospects... which I also don't fully understand. Topps had cards for him from the 2024 season with no RC designation, but his 2025 season cards do have it. Whut.

That would require Fanatics to pay extra for the rights to these players.....they'll never do that.....

i'll be picking up a few autos off ebay at some point

henry, zlatan, villa, stoichkov, drogba, and valderrama? hell yeah

2025 Topps MLS 30th Anniversary
Tues. 7/22 - 2 PM EST
1 auto per box
Hobby Box: $99.99

Missing big MLS names but "Messi" autos will make this a sellout.

Easy buy

Sold out

Per usual Topps site, the cases sold out within 1 min.

In for 1 box. I'm ready for my $20 in cards. lol
No odds, but product could be fairly short printed. From the description looks like no base autos.

Each Box Includes the following:

(7) base cards
(4) inserts
(3) numbered parallels (base or insert)
(1) autograph parallel or limited-edition multi-signer autograph card.

If they do the typical /99, /50, /25 , /10, /5, /1 that puts the print run at around 5,000 boxes or 500 cases

The boxes look like the same size as dune + disney genesis, fwiw

Topps probably only releases 5-10% of the print run via these early pre-sales to create the illusion of demand/scarcity....

This wasn’t a presale

Thought about a quick flip as a breaker is buying these for $125 each but it didn’t seem worth the hassle ultimately for what would’ve been $130 profit or so on the 10 box max.

In the “specs” drop down on the product page it is listed an an online exclusive box so I would assume a higher amount

Buy any Salt Lake cards from the set if anyone wants to sell or trade them!

All these name drops and not one single mention of Freddy Adu!

The original Cavan Sullivan! :cool:

[QUOTE=crdbored;19968532]The original Cavan Sullivan! :cool:[/QUOTE]

The original was Tab Ramos!

The hype on him was wild. Injury wrecked him too, like so many 'prodigies'.

looks like someone has a box in hand (per ebay). no tracking on mine yet

Donovan has an ownership interest in Upper Deck
Beckham and some of the others are with Panini

Donovan had autos in 2022 finest and other names like Vela had autos in 2023.

Like someone else said, Topps probably did not want to pay the price of certain individuals.
