Parallels
All 117 base cards are available as a Refractor parallel, which is serial-numbered to 199 copies.
Encased Refractors
Inserted into each sealed Hobby box as a box topper is one encased card. Each box topper pack will contain either a Buyback Autograph (see below) or one of the following Refractor parallels.
- Black Refractor (serial-numbered to 25 copies)
- Red Refractor (one-of-one)
- Encased Printing Plates (set of four for each card)

Inserts
Prospects
Every pack contains one un-autographed Prospect and an Autographed Prospect. Half the packs yielded an Autographed Prospect from Group A, the other half from Group B. It is believed that the Group B Autographed Prospects were intended to have a jersey swatch, but Topps nixed that at the last minute.
