Uncut Sheet Redemptions Set Checklist

Featuring Veteran and Rookie Base sheets, as well as X-Fractor, Black Refractor and Sapphire Parallels.

Product Details

User Rating:

Rookie autographs, new designs and die-cut inserts are among the highlights of 2013 Topps Platinum Football. Every hobby box promises two rookie autographs, a patch autograph and a rookie Black Refractor. Perhaps you're picking up on one of the set's patterns. But it's not all about first-year players.

The 2013 Topps Platinum Football base set has 150 cards -- 100 veterans and 50 rookies. Every hobby pack has a veteran Sapphire parallel that doubles as a decoy to help prevent pack searching. Rookies have several Refractor parallels: X-Fractors (1:5 packs), Black (1:20 packs), Purple (#/75), Gold (#/50), Red (#/25), Pink BCA (#/10), Camo Military (#/10) and Superfractors (1/1). Superfractors and Printing Plates can only be found in hobby packs.

First-year standouts have Rookie Autograph variations, which fall two per box. They come with on-card signatures. Refractor parallels follow a similar color pattern as base rookie parallels but with a couple of additional levels. They include Black (#/150), Blue (#/99), Frost (#/50), Purple (#/25), Gold (#/15), Pink BCA (#/10), Military (#/10), Red (#/5) and Superfractors (1/1). Printing Plates, along with Superfractors,are once again hobby exclusives.

Autographed Patch Refractors are the third guaranteed hit in 2013 Topps Platinum Football. The cards use sticker autographs and have plenty of parallels. The majority of these are cards are rookies, but there are a handful of veterans as well. Ultra-rare rookie parallels include pieces with NFL Shields, gloves, team logos and NFL footballs.

Besides the promised hits, 2013 Topps Platinum has several additional rare autograph and memorabilia cards. Dual Autographs (#/25) have a pair of signatures while double-sided Hexagraphs (#/10) are signed by six players. The multi-player front continues with Dual Autograph Dual Patch (#/25) and Dual Autographed Rookie Refractor Jumbo Patch Book Cards (1/1). Autographed Refractor Platinum Patch Cards (#/5) feature signatures and over-sized patch pieces. Finally Platinum Rookie Patches are a case hit that have no signature but a jumbo patch piece.

New to 2013 Topps Platinum Football are a pair of die-cut inserts. Pink BCA Ribbon cards and Military Ribbon cards have the familiar commemorative ribbons in the background. Besides regular versions, there are also autographed parallels.

Random redemptions in 2013 Topps Platinum Football are good for uncut sheets of veteran cards, rookies and several of the set's parallels including X-Fractors and Black Refractors.

Product Review

2013 Topps Platinum Football Product Review

Reviewed by Dave Edmonds

Good: Three autographs per hobby box. Parallel in each pack. Easy-to-complete base set. All rookies are Refractors.

Bad: Base and rookie cards are made of different card stock. The base veteran cards lack the luster of the rookies. Not many rookies worth chasing.

The Bottom Line: I would consider 2013 Topps Platinum Football a low to mid range product. For its moderate price tag, collectors get three autographs, a couple of inserts and a nearly complete base set. The base rookie autographs are on-card while the rookie patch autograph is on a sticker.

Staff Rating:
4.0 / 5.0

Card Design: 3.5/5.0

The base card design on the front is interesting. Action shots are used for the majority of the photos. Veterans appear in their current team uniforms, as do most of the rookies. The base veteran cards are printed on a foil-board stock, while the rookies are on Chrome-type cards. All of the rookies are also Refractors and the veterans have the look of Refractors but without all of the shine.

The card backs are nothing special. Along with the player name and position, they have the standard vital statistics of height, weight, college, etc. One interesting thing that I saw was that the player's Twitter account is listed along with the vital stats. I didn’t like that the rookie cards are Refractors. It feels like they should be a separate set from the veteran cards.

I was disappointed to see rookie cards that didn’t have the player in his uniform. Photos of rookies from the Combine shouldn’t be coming out this far into the season.

The autograph rookies are on-card and use a different photo than the base rookie cards. The autograph patch autographs are horizontal and look pretty sharp. The patch cards have sticker autographs on them rather than being on-card. The patches are large swatches and many are multi-colored.

Checklist: 4.5/5.0

The base set is comprised of 150 cards including 100 veterans and 50 rookies. It's solid and there's not a lot that Topps can do with regards to the weaker rookie crop. Parallels are plenty for the rookies. 2013 Topps Platinum Football includes several new autographs and rare relic sets.

Value: 4.0/5.0

To be able to pull two on-card rookie autographs and one autographed patch relic per hobby box seems like a pretty good deal given the reasonable price tag. As with any product, there is no guarantee to pull a top rookie. With a weak crop of rookies this year, the multiple autograph levels would be the thing that would draw me in. The top rookies have autographs to chase and there are a total of 40 rookie signers. This box had low-level rookie autographs in it, so I don’t feel like the value was there this time. We were able to pull one of the hard-to-get Military ribbon die-cut cards, but still not something that would pull the box value up much.

The Fun Factor: 4.0/5.0

I always enjoy ripping into a box of football cards. The thrill of discovering what is in store hooks me every time. This box was no different. Although there were no top rookie autographs and only one card from the team that I collect, I eagerly tore into each and every pack as though it may hold a real gem. I got everything that was promised plus a rare bonus.

I went to my local hobby store and bought a box. I got a rookie auto military parallel 9/10 of Tavarres King. I recommend this product to any football card lover.

Steph

Really love the cards. I just have a question. I have a one that’s confusing me. Keenan Allen II Xfractor #67. All the ones I see online are number #144. Is this just an error or a special card?

Patrick

Really like the set. More inserts would of been better but really nice over all. Can someone tell me what a kennan all autograph purple refractor 4 color patch card is worth. I can’t find it anywhere its numbered 1/10

Got a Jimmy Graham die-cut military auto out of a regular retail box. I cannot find it anywhere in Beckett, says it’s like 1:several thousand, which I find hard to believe, AND it says it’s an RC. Very confused on what exactly this card is worth. Any thoughts??

i have to be a man of my word, and i try not to be a d. bag. I blasted the product in earlier review. then i broke week and bought another retail box. I pulled a marshawn lynch auto bcs diecut. im much happier now

Happy new year! I don’t have a LCS in my area so depend on big box stores. New Year’s Eve bought two Topps Value boxes , comes with six 2013 football packs, 3 special chrome rookie , and two hobby platinum packs. Kenny Stills on card auto , Stedman Bailey Auto patch refractor , and EJ Manuel on card red 10/10 RC! Thanks Topps for luring me into buying them !

Really enjoyed the product last year and have been really happy with my experience this year. I’ve bought a couple of hobby boxes, a few retail boxes, three packs and singles from a card shop. I’ve pull 4 Rookie Auto/Patch cards…Mike Gillislee #/1000, Giovani Bernard #/250, Jordan Reed Green #/99 & Manti Teo Frost #/50 plus a lot of other inserts including a Jamaal Charles Red AUTO redemption card. I like spreading out my purchases between the product options I think it helps my hit ratio.

I do have a question though…I have a Robert Griffin Military Ribbon DC, but I didn’t see it on the product list. I believe there is an Andrew Luck one as well. Are there additional cards to the lists above? I would like to see an update if anyone has one.

Thanks,
Elia

Elia Tagoai » It looks like there are base Military and BCA versions for Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III, but the autograph checklist includes Nick Foles and Dwayne Allen instead.

bought 3 retail value boxes in 2012. i loved it. lots of great inserts. bought 2 boxes of 2013 this year. nothing but garbage. i wont even buy another pack. totaly dissapointed. i usually spend 1,500 $ a year on football cards. thanks topps. i wont spend another cent this year.

I have sent 1 email but will say again. I have now bought 7 8-pac retail boxes and a few 3-pac boosters and the best I have gotten is 1 diecut and a handful xfrctors. I love this stuff but have been very unhappy about my insert ratio.I will usually build a set every couple of years and doing this !. I never buy loose pacs because I know they have been searched, always a mini-box or 3-pacs. I hated myself for doing it but bought a ‘hot” pac on ebay, knowing it was searched, so I guess I deserve it when I get cheated. I accidentally bought a retail pac, thinking it was hobby, havnt received it yet, but can diecuts in retail have a chance at autos? If not i got truly duped, bought that 1 by accident anyway thinking it was a hobby pack. Our metro area is fairly big, half a million or so but have no hobby outlets available to us any more, used to be plenty and dont like using ebay for that. I understand retail vs hobby, and all that, but most hobby dealers cheat too. Anyway there has to be a bit fairer for us retail buyers who spend lots of money? Plus do I have a chance at dieut auto n retail?It is great stuff though, but extremely disappointed with insert ratio. thanx if u read this BURT BENNETT, jbbdawg@yahoo.com

REal good..pulled a Montee Ball auto patch purple refract 3/10…also got the Luck camo ribbon—it says Rookie Card on it like the lynch and other cards mentioned here. Def not a 1/1 as there’s a dozen of them on EBAY as we speak.

Hi, I recently bought a retail box of 2013 Topps football. It contained one pink ribbon patch card. I received a Marshawn Lynch. He was in seahawks uniform (current) but the patch was the buffalo bills. Looking online the only images I can find are with the appropriate seahawks patch. I asume this is an error. I know this is a new product, but have you had any reporting of error patches? hypothetically does this increase or decrase the value of the card? Thanks in advance for your info…

Mike A » I haven’t heard of any other errors (but there probably could be). Errors like these can bring a small premium sometimes with player collectors, but it probably they don’t normally have widespread appeal. At least with that one, the patch connects with Lynch as his draft team. If you’d rather have the proper patch, Topps should replace it if you send it back.

nice overall product biggest complaint is the autos so far i got two late rounders and of the same guy and only one 3rd rounder no higher draft picks which really sucks….

Theres a Frost base rookie variation /99 thats not listed on this list. just a heads up

Average product that could be better if RC patch autos were # less than/1000?!!

Jackson

Thanks. Just weird its 6000 to 3000 on a duel auto numbered to /25 without a serial number

Jackson
Jackson

Yeah I saw that on the Lynch photo after I posted. Any word on how many were made on each? I’ve heard 1/1, it’s 1:6000 packs but no serial number.

Ryan Cracknell

Jackson » Unless cards are numbered, Topps doesn’t usually release production numbers. One could get a rough estimate perhaps by comparing to a serial numbered part of the set. If you’re like me, you’d likely need a calculator handy.

I just pulled a milatary cut Arian Foster. I have 2 questions… 1. It says its a RC on the card, the front has the Topps rookie card logo, and the back says it’s a rookie card. 2. Are these cards 1/1? All of the ones up on ebay say they are. If anyone can help me out I’d appreciate it

Jackson » I believe it was an error and all are like that, rookie or not.

Topps & Bowman products are the best out there and they are the only reason the hobby is thriving right now. Personaly I dont buy cases of there products because of the risk of being let down. Buying one or two boxes of a product at a time and also buy a little from hobby, retail and from multiple locations seems to get me the most variety of hits.

Topps sucks, their collation of hits on all 2013 products is just plain terrible, u buy a case your likely to get 4 or 5 auto’s of the same late round rc.

May I add, to all CBC subscribers. Behind of each 2013 Topps Platinum Card at the top, a Twitter account of the player that is represented in the front is available. Certain players like Tony Romo and Philip Rivers are not available. I’m sure there are more players with their Twitter account not available but at this time I do not have the aforementioned information. Have fun Tweeting.

Compared to 2012 Topps Platinum? In reference, imagine a comparison of a Mercedes Benz SLS to a Mercedes Benz SLS AMG! They are both excellent cars. The Benz AMG just happens to be a faster upgraded model. With that said, 2013 Topps Platinum has the same fantastic card stock that Topps continues to excel in. The graphics are absolutely outstanding. Finally, with vibrant colors that tie into the graphics there is not much to dislike in this years debut of Topps Platinum.

rookie cards as always in this set look great-vets are not on as heavy stock as normal with the set-but the question i have is, all of the die-cut cards have the rookie card insignia on the card even for the veterans. was this an error by topps or the way they planned it? thanks for any help!

This product is awesome…Colors are vibrant and all…that is why I am giving it away…just follow me on twitter @bfitchnj and find my giveaway tweet and RT it for your chance at a hobby box!

Picked up about 10 jumbo packs or 30 packs. Love these the best because you get 3 orange refractors in each Jumbo. Grabbed 2 Autographs with 1 being a Die Cut Auto, 2 more Die Cuts, several Xfractors, 3 Black parallels and several other parallels/refractors. Not sure of the difference yet. Love the set so far but did get some duplicate packs or would have been a 5 star.

Bought two hobby boxes and thought after the first box it was a 5 star product. After opening the second box I drop it to a 3. The second box did not contain the Patch Auto as stated on box. Alot of the packs were repeats, after 40 packs (2 boxes) still 12 cards short from base 100 set.

Years before collected this set but no love for the bears means no love for the set didn’t even see bears rookies and only peppers and cutler for base U could have thrown Tillman or Jennings into the mix sad day for a fan of the bears for this set over all would have been a 4 or 5 star product but oh well only bought one pack that will be no more will get my 2 cards from card show

Just picked up a box today, very nice cards. Base cards look great and lots of parallels. I have a question though, I got a military die-cut Montee Ball, non-auto, but the card is #ABMDC-MB as if it was supposed to be signed. Any thoughts? Could this be an error SP? Thanks!

Ryan Cracknell
Ryan Cracknell

Sean » Not sure. Since it just came out, tough to say if others are similar. Even if it is, my guess is people would rather have the signed version.

3 Autos, and 5 X fractors..Plus nice looking set..good design,seems like they thought about this product..count me in
