After years of anticipation, Topps Basketball is officially back and collectors everywhere are ready. The 2025-26 Topps Basketball Hobby Box brings the brand’s classic flagship design into the modern NBA era, packed with rookies, veteran stars, and legendary icons. This release celebrates the energy, personality, and excitement of the game like never before, blending nostalgia with a fresh, bold look that’s built to impress.

Something for Every Collector

Topps delivers a 300-card base set that captures the full landscape of today’s NBA, from the next generation of superstars to established All-Stars and legends who defined basketball’s golden eras. The design feels timeless and clean, with vibrant action photography that mirrors the pulse-pounding atmosphere of the court. It’s a return to the authentic Topps look fans have missed, now updated for a new wave of collectors.

Amazing Parallels

No flagship release would be complete without eye-catching parallels, and Topps doesn’t disappoint. The 2025-26 lineup includes everything from common color parallels to ultra-limited 1-of-1s.

Collectors can chase:

• Gold (#’d to 2025) 

• Blue (#’d to 150) and Green (#’d to 99) 

• Black (#’d to 68) and Orange (#’d to 25) 

• Red (#’d to 5) and FoilFractor (1-of-1) 

You’ll also find Clear Variations (#’d to 10) and Player Number Variations, adding a fun surprise to any rip!

Inserts, Case Hits & Super Short Prints

This year’s insert lineup is loaded with creativity and chase appeal. Topps blends artistic design with basketball storytelling through inserts like:

• Golden Mirror 

• Home Court 

• All Kings, Rise to Stardom, MVP Vault, The Daily Dribble, and Levitation 

• 1980-81 Topps Throwback 

For those who love the hunt, keep an eye out for Class of 2025 Super Short Prints. These ultra-rare cards fall roughly once every few thousand packs, and the FoilFractor versions are true 1-of-1s- grails in the making.

Autographs & Relics 

Every Hobby Box guarantees at least one autograph or relic, and there’s no shortage of heat. Collectors can look for Rookie Photo Shoot Dual Autographs, 1980-81 Rookie Autographs, and signatures from some of the NBA’s biggest stars and legends.

The relic lineup also impresses with Rise to the Occasion, Own the Game, and Rookie Roundball Remnants memorabilia cards, many featuring low-numbered parallels and premium swatches. Whether you’re chasing rookie autos or nostalgic legend signatures, this product brings a slam dunk of variety and value.

The return of Topps Basketball is a defining moment for collectors. It’s the first time in years that Topps has brought its flagship design to a fully licensed NBA release, and the hobby community couldn’t be more excited. Between the massive checklist, fresh parallels, and high-end chase potential, this set bridges the old-school charm of Topps heritage with the modern collecting experience fans crave.
