After a successful return to a tiered base set a year ago, Topps brings back the concept for 2025 Topps Finest Baseball.

Finest became one of the most well-known tiered sets when the format gained popularity in the late 1990s, with common, uncommon, and rare segments on its checklist. Those parameters return as part of the 300-card base set in 2025.

Hobby boxes have six 10-card packs and guarantee two autographs, 12 base parallels, and 10 inserts or insert parallels.

2025 Topps Finest Baseball Checklist Overview

The base set again clocks in at 300 cards and will be broken up into common, uncommon, and rare segments. Every base card will have plenty of colorful parallels.

Each box will give collectors six uncommon base cards and two rare base cards (such as the Shohei Ohtani card pictured below).

Refractors and Parallels

The entire 300-card base set had 16 levels of parallels, including 12 Refractors and four Checkboard Refractors, but how rare those parallels are depends on the card’s tier.

Every concept from the basic Refractor to the Red Refractor gets rarer with each tier. The only exception is the Superfractors, which are all 1/1s.

Below is a breakdown of the parallels for the common, uncommon, and rare tiers of the set.

Among the parallels is a new Refractor: the return of the Magenta Refractor for the first time since 2014. And the ultra-rare Oil Spill Refractors are back.

Inserts

Inserts have always been a standard component of Topps Finest Baseball, and this year’s edition is no exception.

Creators inserts are inspired by the past – and another sport.

In the late 1990s, Topps Finest also broke its sets up into various subsets. In the 1997-98 Topps Finest Basketball set, one of the most popular subsets was Creators – largely due to the uncommon Michael Jordan and the rare Kobe Bryant cards belonging to it.

Now, Creators will be a 30-card insert set in 2025 Topps Finest Baseball.

Arrivals, another take on a ’90s basketball subset, also returns as an insert for a second year in a row and features young, rising stars.

Headliners inserts are back after a one-year hiatus, and new inserts to Finest this year include Smashing Through, Bullish, and Gusto.

The Smashing Through inserts have colorful modern art designs peaking through a smashed rock background.

Autographs

Collectors have also come to expect plenty of autograph options in Finest products, and 2025 Finest Baseball delivers.

The hunt will be on for Finest Moments Autographs, which are found once per case.

As has been tradition for years, these cards memorialize an individual moment from a player’s career, and a hard-signed signature gives them a special touch.

New to Finest in 2025 are Topps Rookie Cup Anniversary Autographs, which will allow collectors to remember players from the past who earned a place on the annual Topps All-Star Rookie Team, and Gustographs, a horizontal set limited to /25.
