2015 Topps Heritage High Number Baseball Cards

Are the Mini cards really 1:69 packs? Cause I’m looking at the odds on the back of a hobby wrapper and it states the Mini is 1:169. Just curious if that’s correct.

. . . nevermind, it is a swatch from the awesome blue throwback uniforms. Nice touch Topps!

I like the Heritage high numbers my big problem is that I bought 5 sealed blaster boxes of high numbers with sealed packes I got 4 to 5 high numer cards in each pack and the other 4 or 5 cards were from 2012 topps all commons or 2010 topps all commons. whats up with that I took the boxes back and my money was returned. I called Topps they said they were not responseable for tampered boxes from the warehouse. Sad when people stoop that low.

Great set for rookies and parallels to chase. But, so far, I have only hit a Francisco Lindor chrome /999. Plenty of base Correa’s. Then today, from a Walmart blaster box, I hit a triple relic (Cepeda, Yadi & Wainwright) hand-numbered to 25. One of the toughest hits I have ever pulled, at 1/6,777 packs.

The Wainwright jersey relic is light blue — anyone know from where it came (obviously not St. Louis game uniform colors)? Any help would be appreciated.

I have 1 card shop within a 200 mile radius from my home, but the owner mostly stocks up on football and basketball as baseball is the least popular of the 3 here in southern WV so what baseball hobby boxes he does get in, its usually the regular topps or bowman…so ive been forced to buy retail only…i have always liked the Heritage brand BUT i only bought prolly 3 retail boxes since 2011 cuz there usually isnt many big name rookies per set and its so hard to hit relic/auto/big name rookie sp/parallel…but the 2015 class is stacked esp the later series of topps products with all the later callups after the 1st edition topps sets were released…so becuz of that ive been buyin a lot of later 2015 boxes just to pull the base rookies of correa/Bryant/buxton/etc…and anything else id consider a bonus..so from heritage high number, all my purchases haven been of the retail kind and so far ive spent less than $100 and have pulled a kolten wong/orlando cespeds dual bat/jersey #/66, kris Bryant rookie bazooka mini (seems rare n would love to knw the print run!), 2 kris Bryant rookie SP’s, 5 correa rookies, russell, Kang, and buxton rookie SP’s, raisel iglesias rookie chrome /999 so far so i think ive done alright…very happy with the product and as much credit as id like to give topps for gettin a non heritage buyer to buy heritage, its more to do with the overload of top rookies than topps making it more appealing…so as long as my local walmarts and target keeps this in stock, ill be cleaning them out!..i collect for future investment and i think 10+ yrs down the road, my buying of the 2015 topps baseball mid-late year products will definately payoff if i keep pullomg correas and bryants out of every box lol!..ive been really lucky pulling kris Bryant cards…i bought a 2014 bowman blaster last yr at walmart, only one they had, and pulled a lucky redemption which turned out to be kris Bryant auto refractor /500!..so topps if you read this, keep stackin those retail boxes you send to WV!!!..anyways great product love it!….o yea, i didnt see anything about the bazooka minis as far as checklist and print run…i dont care bout checklist but if you have any ideal what the print run is even if its a he said she said estimate id love to know…from what ive seen from ebay, seems like it shoukd be 100 or less cuz ive not seen no more than a handful of each player at any given time on there..any helps is greatly appreciated!..keep up the good work!

The high number series imo is better than series 1. so far the packs I have purchase have no gum stains or white out markings on it. Don’t mind the getting the gimmicks cards, just eliminate all the gum stain & white out on card backs in future sets. I hope they continue with high number or series 2 heritage in the future.

So I bought 2 hobby boxes and got 2 relics of nobody very good. I did however get 3 Bryants 1 base sp 1 base chrome and 1 refractor /999. Also action variations of Rodon and Lindor.

I went to target and purchased a few of the 20 card rack packs and pulled a Machado relic AND A HANK AARON CLUBHOUSE AUTO RELIC /25 REDEMPTION!!

Granted it’s always the luck of the draw but I’ve seen many better hits from retail than hobby packs

Does anyone know or have a checklist for the purple refractors? cant seem to find it anywhere for the 2015 heritage high number set.

Avoid the retail boxes…4 boxes and ZERO cards that are SP’S(700-725).Wish I
lived near a hobby store.

In 2008, 2009 – the Cut off date for rookies for the Update set was end of August – all the September were for the next year (though Pablo Sandoval date a Heritage rookie update only 2008 card) – Now the cutoff appears to be June 15. I doubt we will see Sano and Schwarber in any 2015 set.

What are the black and white print run thanks

I REALLY like this set. It is absolutely loaded with top rookies, so even with only 1 hit per hobby box (and an 80% chance that hit will be a relic), there still are many chances for great parallels and variations of players like Kris Bryant, Carlos Correa, and/or Francisco Lindor, just to name a few. I am giving this product a 5-star review despite opening 8 hobby boxes and pulling not one auto. Because you know going in with this product that autos will be very tough, and the price point is very manageable given all of the great rookies in this set. I also know I had bad luck not getting any autos in 7 boxes. The auto checklist is terrific, however, so if you DO get an auto, you have almost a 50% chance of it being a very good name.

But in 8 boxes I pulled 9 Correa rookies, 4 Bryants (SPs), 8 Syndergaards, 7 Gallos, etc. These cards could be $20 a piece or more in 10 years, so it’s a great investment product in my opinion.

My best hit was a gold bat relic of Jose Abreu numbered to 99. I pulled a chrome refractor of Bryant. I had a purple refractor hot box that had a purple of Correa. I pulled action variations of Lindor, Correa, Buxton and Addison Russell.

Interestingly, I bought two blaster boxes from Target just to see how the distribution would differ and pulled a dual relic of Machado and Frank Robinson hand numbered to 66. Much better than any of my hits from 8 hobby boxes. No accounting for the luck involved in this hobby, but this is a very fun product for set building. The 4 insert sets are all either 10 cards or 15 cards so those are quite manageable to build as well. The key to this product, though, IMO, is the sheer volume of top rookies, which I think will make this a very valuable set 5-10 years down the road.

MJ, Good point I didn’t remember Schwarber & Sano’s debut but it feels like they have been around forever now. I kinda hope they didn’t make it for Update either and we can get them in 2016.

Huge bias alert – pulled Francisco Lindor and Jose Abreu red (redemption) autographs in two hobby boxes. Also pulled an Addision Russell (redemption) autograph in a blaster box.

Even besides the above, the set works. Clubhouse Connection is a nice new addition. Like that there should be an action variation in each hobby box. Slightly dislike that the gum damaged back is harder to pull.

Really looks like Topps went out of the way to make this a more compelling set. It worked. Got me to purchase the cards where I’ve passed in past years.

Patrick, I don’t think they were “holding back” some key rookies. I just think their go-to-press deadline was earlier than those players were promoted (and Topps’ license with MLB says they can’t issue a card until player X has appeared in the majors; they can’t just “anticipate”, lest there be another Alex Gordon mess). Correa is in the set and he was recalled June 8. Schwarber debuted June 16 and isn’t in the set. I think its fairly obvious that Topps’ deadline was somewhere between those two dates. There was never any chance of Bird or Severino being in the set as their debuts came in August. The release date for the flagship update is a little less than a month away. That tells me the deadline for that product was at least a few weeks later. So I think you might get Schwarber and Sano in that one. But Conforto, Bird and Severino still figure to not make it given the dates of their promotions.

I got my hands on this product early at Target. Nice quality look and feel. Thick card. I grew up in the 80s so I dig the paper look. Corners are consistently sharp unlike panini retail. This set is stacked with rookies which is my favorite thing to collect. The retro look is actually convincing and nice. Not really any stars in the base set as far as veterans (they’re in the low number sets obviously) but I enjoyed my packs for the rookies and inserts. It’s also nice to see players that play hard every night but don’t get a chance to be on cardboard as often. Favorite product of the year.

If there were any Padres collectors out there, I could imagine them being slightly miffed at having to chase 4 of the 25 SPs.

Most likely they are saving Bird, Severino, and Conforto(as well as Sano & Schwarber) for the early 2016 releases otherwise there will not be many hot rookies to chase. This set is loaded with top draws as it is(Bryant, Correa, Lindor, Buxton, and on and on). I love Heritage but typically only buy some retail and singles but I will be buying some hobby boxes of the high number.

how does this set miss bird severino and conforto really what’s up with that

**–don’t understand how topps can blow including conforto, bird and severino in this set. talk about missing the boat.

I thought for sure they’d get a Molitor managerial card in this set. I was wrong.

When is the checklist going to be released?
