2015 Topps Football Cards

Love the set. Actually fun to open a pack. But what is blue foil in the anniversary set?

Is there a checklist of the buyback cards for this set?

Warning: old-timer rant ahead. I like the Topps 2015 design and I love the shiny red parallels #’d to 60. I also like the size of the set. The stamped buybacks are kind of silly. The biggest problem I have with this set is there are so many themes (AP, FS, T60) that serve only to repeat star players. I’m a huge Packers fan but I don’t buy Topps to get 5 different cards of Aaron Rodgers in the same set. ALL other sets are like that – stars and rookies only. Topps is the one set I would hope would recognize important players regardless of position. Am I the only person who would appreciate cards of Josh Sitton, Travis Frederick, and Mike Iupati? I want meat and potatoes with my gravy. Keep the set at 500 cards, lose the fantasy studs, lose the T60 subset, include 2-3 linemen per team.

I have a question for the community. The set checklist on this site says that there is one rookie auto in every 33 jumbo packs for this product. What exactly is a jumbo pack? I know there are two different 36 ct. packs and one 50 ct. pack (there probably even more variations of packs that I don’t know about). But none of the pack wrappers in stores have anything remotely near 1:33 chance listed for a base rookie auto. Is this site misinformed?

Just pulled card #30 short print Newton MV
p within days right? VERY LUCKY other day Baseball card#1 Jeter SSP ..TOPPS 2015 Any takers?

Different strokes for different folks. I love this set. I’m not a huge fan of white base cards. It just doesn’t appeal to me as much so I’m loving putting this set together. I like how there are sets within the set in the first 500 cards. Not to mention the other insert sets. Great stuff.

I do have a correction for you guys though. In the Past & Present Performers set you have Card #PPP-MS (Tony Romo/Emmitt Smith) listed as PPP-RS. My copy has MS listed on the back even though it doesn’t match with the naming scheme of the other cards. I’ve noticed also that there are two numbers T60-TB in the 60th Anniversary set. I have both and they both have the same number. Tom Brady & Tim Brown. The 60th card is the only super annoying thing so far about this set. (This is a Topps error, not CC’s mistake.)

Has anyone completed the 60th Anniversary autograph set?

I’m a fan of this release but I have found a purple parallel from a blister pack that I acquired. I can’t find any checklist information on these. Any word on them? Thanks!

In researching this product to try to finish the Christine Michael “rainbow”, I found that there is an orange variant to the base cards numbered #/75. The ones on COMC are insanely priced. What a drag.

I find this product to be alright yearly, but loses it’s luster quickly. After buying very minimal amounts of it, I always end up with a ton of repeat cards…and they are rarely worth much (not that I’ve ever sold a single card…)

There is a misprint on one of the Zack Martin cards, and his name is spelled Zach Martin. How common is this misprint?

Collecting the red ser/60 parallel set. Like the overall look, photos and design. Only complaint is small printing on back requires hubbell telescope to read. Design backs that are legible. Question for anyone. How many parallel sets does the 100 card 60th anniv set have? I’ve seen red, blue black, but not much info. Is the red foil parallel the same as the target, blue foil for waaahlmart? Thanks!

I like this years product as always. Of course it’s hard to get the “big hit” but nice patch card set and checklist. From my 1 hobby box I’ve got so far I got: 1 rookie patch auto/50, 4 golds, and a pink…not bad. Can’t wait to bust another box!

Don’t see it anywhere else, so thought to mention that the 72 card Walmart $9.99 hanger pack states ‘Exclusive 60th Anniversary Blue-Bordered Cards inside! Collect All 100,’ may want to add that to the 60th Anniversary Set Checklist info.

Nevermind, must be a buyback card.

I don’t see this in the listings but I got a 1976 Topps card in here. It’s got the 60th imprint on the bottom left hand corner. Atlanta Falcons QB Steve Bartkowski. Any info on this?

I really hope this is not the last in a awhile for Topps Football, as Ryan alluded to in April. Topps has been the primary manufacturer in a hobby that has changed drastically in the past 50 years.

I’ve been collecting sports cards since 1968 when I would go down to the corner store and blow my allowance on packs of Topps cards at 10 cents a pack and included a stick of bubble gum (Which Topps discontinued in 1992).

Although Panini has absorbed Score and DonRuss and improved the product, I still prefer Topps over Panini.

are the sp variation autos worth more??

Least attractive Topps set in years! Even the photography not as sharp as past sets.

Ugly as hell base set is all I can say but I guess that’s more of an opinion

Topps has been the standard for many years. Great for young and old, beginners or people that have been collecting for years. This set however is a bit much.
Pros: Design – I think this a solid design and I happy Topps hasn’t just copied the design for each sport like they used to.
Past & Present Perfomers – Best insert I’ve seen from Topps in a while (copied from Passing the Torch though)
Photography – Solid photography throughout(I’m a Giants fan so the Beckham card had me)

Cons: Too many inserts & not enough parallels – This means they produced a lot of this product
They didn’t keep it simple – There are 5 Aaron Rodgers cards in the base set…WHY? Put the All-Pro flag on the base instead of a separate card. I’m tired of the fantasy football junk as well. They are pointless.

Finally I would just like to say to those complaining about the hits. Guess what this is not a hit based product. Read the product details and summary so you know what you’re buying.

Further breakdown of retail box – 24 packs/288 cards – comments above
213 of 500 cards base set 42% – no variations
37 duplicates (almost 13 % of all cards)
5 parallels – 4 gold, 1 camo
33 inserts
No Mariotas or Winstons

1- These cards are really ugly – worst Topps product in many years. They make some of the Score sets look good. Even worse than 2015 baseball which was pretty bad in itself.
2- Do not buy Retail 24 pack boxes – no auto or relic, inserts not as listed on wrapper- 3 sets were short 1 or 2 cards, 1 set had an extra and worst of all numerous duplicates in base set. Maybe Hobby better but I doubt it.

This is the second straight “down year” for Topps Football, in my opinion. The stock is flimsier (like last year) than it had been in 2012 and 2013, I believe. The inserts are boring. I contrast this to Topps baseball, which also is a low-end set very heavy on the inserts, but I think that product does a better job of making the inserts interesting and diverse. These inserts all sort of run together for me. Also, the base is set is just too big. 500 cards? With so many doubles of the same players, it’s just too much.

The stamped buyback cards from different years are cool, but maybe TOO tough to pull. I bought 1 jumbo box and got 2 of them. One was a 1977 team checklist card of the Cardinals (which was cool) and one was a 2013 Roddy White card (not so cool).

The colored border parallel cards — with the exception of the 60th anniversary ones — are cheap looking and difficult to identify. Specifically, the pink, gold and camo cards. I got one 60th anniversary parallel serial numbered to 60 of Jamaal Charles, and those are sharp looking cards.

My hits were a base auto of Sammie Coates, a 1963 mini auto of Kevin White serial numbered to 25, and a Bryce Petty rookie patch. The White was a sweet, on-card auto. I did appreciate that all 3 hits were skill positions instead of OL or LB, etc.

Overall, I think Topps could do more to make this low-end product more fun for base and insert collections, like Topps baseball is.

Ryan,on the buyback cards you forgot to mention to Tyler they are 99.9% of the time not “mint”
condition cards. The autos. if you get one of the stars can be very valuable even if the card is not
mint.

im sure its the same old topps retail oriented base card prominent and impossible to pull any of the letterman, top veteran, or any card you really want. Umless you buy 20 cases and open every pack. Never once have i seen more than 1 of the Amazing cards pictured pulled. Sorry everyone i just dont have $5.000.00 to waste on basecards to clutter my house just to try and get something nice that will never equal what i’ve spent to obtain it

Presidential Celebration? If the Fantasy Focus insert set is still scheduled (not listed) and with the additions to the 1,000 and 4,000 yard clubs, we could have 370 inserts. And none of them appear to be numbered. Nothing makes collecting more fun than spending hours trying to alphabetize non-numbered cards. Also there seems to be a lot of Rookies in the 60th anniversary set. At least one who won’t even play this year.

Will there be Topps Prime or Panini Prizm (NFL) this year?

It says the base set has 500 cards with 240 veterans and 99 rookies. What are the other 161 cards?

Trey, Thanks for the response. Yes, I’m looking for the Titans jersey, so it looks like I have to wait for the 8/26 box(es) to be released.

One other question. I don’t see a purchase option above for the Jumbo Box, will that option be available later or can you somehow order it now?

I’m kinda new to all this and living in Eugene, OR, so a big Duck fan. Anyone know which of the box options this year would stand the best chance of containing Marcus Mariota rookies?

This is a great thing

Can someone explain to me what a buyback is?

Hard for me to rate the product before I have it in my hand. I notice no mention of a mini insert set.
But if each jumbo contains one of each of the 7 inserts mentioned and a 2nd 60th anniversary insert plus one autograph/relic/variation/parallel/buyback, that leaves one card unaccounted for.

Can’t wait for Topps 2015 !!!!

Is 2015 the last year of Topps Football? I heard that Panini and the NFLPA agreed to an exclusive license that’ll start in March of 2016.

Sounds cool like the Odell Beckham Jr. Card. What Are the pack odds?
