Topps is gearing up to unveil a special treat for collectors and enthusiasts alike at the highly-anticipated Fanatics Fest in New York City. The exclusive Topps Chrome Baseball box will feature the coveted “Big Apple Refractors” cards, each boasting a print run limited to fewer than 50. These cards will showcase the iconic New York City skyline in the background, adding a touch of sophistication and local pride to any collection lucky enough to have them.
For those eager to get their hands on this exclusive box, there are two formats to choose from – the Value Box and the Hobby Box. The six “Big Apple Refractors” per Hobby Box guarantee collectors a set of six unique and sought-after cards per box. However, the catch is that these special boxes will only be available for purchase on-site at Fanatics Fest, which is scheduled to take place from August 16-18 at the Javits Center in New York City.
With buzz around this limited release building up, it’s important to note that snagging one of these exclusive boxes is not a sure bet, even with an admission ticket in hand. Quantities are restricted, adding an air of exclusivity to the event. VIP ticketholders will have the first crack at securing a box, but even they are not guaranteed success due to the high demand and limited supply.
Fanatics Fest is set to be a showcase of epic proportions, with claims of being the “home to the largest trading card show in recent New York City history.” The event will bring together over 300 of the industry’s top dealers and brands, promising an immersive experience for attendees. Alongside the trading card extravaganza, fans can look forward to engaging with star athletes and sports personalities through appearances and discussions, making Fanatics Fest a must-attend event for sports aficionados and card collectors alike.
The exclusive release of the Topps Chrome Baseball box at Fanatics Fest adds an extra layer of excitement to an already thrilling event. Attendees will have a rare chance to enhance their collections with the unique “Big Apple Refractors” cards, which are sure to become prized possessions for any collector lucky enough to secure them.
