[[2000 Pacific Invincible]] is a 150-card set released in October, 2000. All cards are written in both English and Spanish.
+
[[2009 Kellogg's Japan]] is a set of six "rulers" produced for the Japanese market. Each ruler measures fifteen centimeters and features lenticular printing of the player "in action." Unlike the previous two year's Kellogg's Japan sets, these "cards" do not have the Upper Deck branding.
  
The product was intended for release in August, but was pushed back so that Pacific could include their first game-used inserts. Unfortunately for Pacific, among those game-used cards is the now infamous Manny Ramirez "corked bat" card.

+
[[2024 Topps Pro Debut]] is a 200-card Minor League set released September 6th. Each 24-pack Hobby box will yield four autographs.
 
 
Much like how the [[1994 Bowman's Best|original Bowman's Best]] was conceived as a hybrid of the Bowman and Finest brands, 2015 Bowman's Best can be seen as a hybrid of [[2015 Bowman]] and [[2015 Finest]].  Each Hobby box will contain two Finest-style six-pack mini-boxes, with each mini-box yielding two autographs.

[[2015 Bowman Draft]] is a 200-card set scheduled for release December 9th. For the second consecutive year Bowman Draft will not feature any current active Major League players. As there are not even a token number of actual Major League players in the base set (Bowman Draft is not licensed by the MLBPA), none of the cards fit the traditional definition of a "Rookie Card" and none bear the MLB-approved RC "icon."
+
[[2024 Finest]] is a 300-card set released August 7th.
  
For the first time since this product's inception as "Bowman Draft Picks & Prospects" in 2000, only players who were selected in the 2015 MLB Draft will be included -- in other words, all draft picks and no "prospects."
+
For the first time since 1997, Finest will have a tiered base set. The first 100 cards are "Commons". Cards #101-200 are "Uncommons" and are seeded at the rate of one-per-pack. The final 100 cards are "Rare" and come one in every third pack.
  
Each Hobby box will yield one autograph, with Jumbo boxes having three autos and Super Jumbos five. Exclusive parallels were inserted into packs distributed to the Asian-Pacific market.
+
A six-pack Hobby box is expected to yield:
  
31 of the 35 players selected in the first round of the 2015 MLB Draft have signed autographs for 2015 Bowman Draft including first overall pick Dansby Swanson. This marks the first time since 2004 that the number one overall pick in the draft has an autograph in that year's Bowman Draft/Draft Picks & Prospects.  
+
* Six Uncommon base cards
 +
* Two Rare base cards
 +
* Six Refractor parallels.
 +
* Eight inserts
 +
* Two Autographs.

[[2015 Panini Contenders]] is a 99-card set, released November 11th, 2015. As with all other Panini products, it is not licensed by Major League Baseball, and as such, none of the cards are considered "true" rookies. However, the set is licensed by the Collegiate Licensing Corporation (CLC) and USA Baseball and features players, primarily, in their college uniforms.

<div style = "class">

[[2024 Topps Museum Collection]] is a 100-card set to be released July 31st. As usual each five-card pack will contain one autograph or game-used Relic. Each four pack Hobby box will yield the following:

[[2015 Topps Heritage '51]] is a 104-card boxed set released October 28th.
