I'm almost positive the Reflections subset in 2025 TC is original art. I could be wrong though, that happens often

You aren't alone in wondering why anyone would spend that much money on a box of what was just shown. If I'd even spent $100 on the box above...I know I would wonder what exactly I just spent my money on...

While on the subject of overpriced junk...I don't want to give the impression that Topps is the only company that does it. They all do. Problem is that people keep buying it. Then the companies have no reason to change or improve their offerings. So, we are caught in this cycle of mostly mediocre products for what used to be(not that long ago...) top of the line pricing.
