2025 Topps Archives and Topps Chrome

[ronfir]

I have slowly been working on the 2025 Topps Chrome set and decided to take in all the extra rookie cards I had to the local for a little in store credit. Ended up with four packs of chrome in the deal and lucked out pulling this card.



While there I busted some 2024/25 SP Authentic hockey and hit an amazing card.



As I was walking up to pay for my purchases I noticed they had three packs of 2025 Topps Archives sitting there. One pack was standing up and two were flat on the shelf. I asked the store employee to hand me the top pack laying flat but he hands me the one standing up. I tell him that is not the pack I want. I want the top pack of the two laying flat. He seemed a little ticked and said "What are you trying to do pull an Ohtaini auto?"

Rip the pack I asked for!



Well I guess I was!

And Topps sent me an email yesterday the autograph is a 2023 Topps Cosmic card set to ship out by 8/29/25 So not a long wait.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Great pull on the Ohtani redemption and even better than Topps is actually shipping it out
