Coffee Break:2025 Topps Holiday Baseball Mega Box

Here is Box #3 in this series. Before I begin with this one, I want to mention I kept the other holiday mega box sealed. I have been collecting sealed holiday boxes for a few years now and will show them off as my Christmas post this year.

I don't know why I am, but, wanted to.
 

Today's box is my way of continuing to show off of retail wax that I got in the 9-card lot of autograph Daniel Jones cards I traded away. If you missed that, here is the ARTICLE.

I started with the football boxes and now moved to baseball saving basketball Value Hanger Pack for last.

Without further ado, let's start to rip and take a sip with these highlights,  

Before I show off the highlights, I want to point out that these Mega Boxes no long guarantee an autograph or relic card. For $29.99 a box, you want that. What used to be a good deal is no longer that on these. It's typically what Fanatics has been doing with Topps products so far.

Rant over, now the highlights.
My ornament pull. I like this years design.

Base card design. It feels recycled to me.

Some silver parallels,





Blue? I don't know a lot about this years product.

First short print find,
Jazz Gingerbread cookie. Kinda lame parallel/Sp.

These look good!

But, not as good as having holiday chrome!! What do you bet they will release a Topps Holiday Chrome next year. Mark my words and bookmark this post!

Final Sp,
 
Mike Trout. Remember when he was hobby relevant?

Well not too much there to get excited about. I do like the Trout Sp, the chrome card and ornament, but outside of that, not much in here. I miss finding a hit per box.

Alright, we have one Coffee Break left in this trade coming up tomorrow.

Hopefully it ends on a good note since the first three breaks were not that great.

We will see on that.

  1. Yeah, the blue is weird. Seems like Holiday is a hit-or-miss set every year. Loved 2019 and 2024, The others: *shrug*

  2. My favorite color is blue. You got some good players in the above mix. I like the holiday theme and the holiday season with exception of cold temperatures. The coffee is good, and the leftovers are in order. Enjoy the time all!

  3. A. Cool Trout. One of the things I still enjoy about Topps Holiday are the candy cane and Christmas tree light gimmick/sp cards. I also like the ornament inserts.

    B. But overall, I'm kind of over the Topps Holiday product. It's sad that they got rid of the guaranteed relic/auto. And I had to actually to research the "gingerbread" parallel. That's totally silly and not needed.
