2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Variations Gallery & Checklist

As has been the case for a few years, the 2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations come in several forms with a handful of parallels.

Unlike other brands that mainly just swap photos without a consistent theme, 2020 Gypsy Queen variations only deal with special-event uniform images.

However, let's dive into the parallels first, since that is typically a source of confusion for Gypsy Queen.

2020 Gypsy Queen Baseball Base Parallels

*All odds noted below are for Hobby packs.*

The 2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball checklist works in a mix of cardboard quirks that add, remove or switch portions for all 320 base cards. In general, these are just base parallels and not variations, but the image variations have parallels, as well.

2020 Gypsy Queen Missing Nameplate Parallels

The Missing Nameplate parallels naturally remove the player's name from the front of the card. These average 1:23 packs for the base set and 1:605 for the base short prints (SP).

2020 Gypsy Queen GQ Logo Swap Parallels

There are also the GQ Logo Swap parallels that substitute the standard "GQ" logo for a stencil-drawing of a woman in purple and white. These fall at 1:31 packs for base and 1:1,210 packs for base SP.

2020 Gypsy Queen Bazooka Back Parallels

The third parallel is the toughest at 1:61 packs for base or 1:1,817 packs for base SP. The Bazooka Backs feature a full gum ad on the back in place of the standard card back.

2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Variations

In terms of the 2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations, collectors can chase two returning options and one new set. The assortment consists of short-printed Jackie Robinson Day (1:152 packs) and Player's Weekend (1:150 packs) images, along with the debut of Armed Forces Day SSP cards (1:1:1,210 packs).

All cards except Armed Forces Day offer GQ Logo Swap and Black parallels, while the Jackie Robinson set also works in signed versions for select players.

In addition, a few of the Armed Forces Day cards are surfacing in Retail formats with die-cut/rounded edges instead of the standard corners. The rounded style matches the look of the Tarot inserts, but, other than that, they appear to be exactly the same as the regular Armed Forces Day. It appears these are a production error rather than an intended variation.

2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball Variation Codes

If you need a helpful cheat for identifying the 2020 Topps Gypsy Queen Baseball variations, look on the back of the card. In small letters and numbers next to the stats or at the very bottom of the card, the CMP code can be used to confirm the variations. Compare the last three digits to the list below to see what you have.

  • Base (#1-300) - #042
  • Base SP (#301-320) - #075
  • Players Weekend Variation - #084
  • Jackie Robinson Day Variation - #081/#087
  • Armed Forces Day Variation - #087

I noticed Aaron Nola has two base cards; #231 & #282. The codes on the back are the same, the front photos are different, and the bio on the back is different. Can you help? Thanks!

Trey Treutel

It’s just two different base cards for the same player. Sometimes Topps does this. These aren’t variations.

What’s the code on the back of the die cut Arenado?

I’ve only seen the code for Yelich and it’s the standard Armed Forces Day – #87

Bought my first blaster tonight. Pulled a Reggie Jackson blue #’d to 150, a mini Fortune Teller of Austin Meadows, a Tarot of the Diamond of Aaron Nola, and a GQ logo swap of Adam Ottavino. No auto/jersey, but an enjoyable first taste overall.

too much variations and no minis and base packs not worth it and took away 2 hits

Can help me with some info on this set. I pulled a Nolan Arenado #294. The card has the Armed Forces photo but the card has die-cit corners . I can’t seem to find info on this card. What’s the deal with the cards cut this way. Thanks

Trey Treutel

It appears there is a Retail version with rounded corners like the Tarot inserts. It is not clear if this is an exclusive parallel to Mega Boxes or if there is some other explanation.

Caught the bug and got (2) more blaster boxes…(2) each of TOD, fortune and SP including (1) nameplate and logo swap. Overall, about 18 binder worthy cards and plenty of good green/silver parallel RCs. ’19 gypsy appears to be more pull friendly however.

Today I pulled card #76 Bryce Harper wearing a camo sleeve and camo hat. The Topps code on the back of the card ends with 087. This card is very obviously the SSP Armed Forces variation and as such should bear the CMP # ending with 097, not 087. This card is definitely not the Jackie Robinson Day variation. Have you any info on this??

Trey Treutel
Trey Treutel

It’s the Armed Forces variation if it matches the Harper card shown on this page which has the dark camo hat. The code is just a way to distinguish from the base. The image makes it the variation. I think the Jackie Robinson and Armed Forces Day cards both show code 087.

Brad

Bought (2) monster boxes from wal-mart today…came away with (4) TOD and (2) FT inserts including (1) Bazooka backing and (1) indigo #250. Not too many good pulls but I will be purchasing more in the future. These are beautiful cards and much like poster above alluded to, it’s a fun set to sort through looking for variations. So far I’ve had better luck with ’19 gypsy with auto, # and inserts with blaster and monster boxes but jury is still out.

Photography and Design are sharp as usual with Topps Gypsy Queen. One of my personal favorite sets since its (re)inception in 2011. Plenty of variations to watch closely for, which makes sifting through the cards somewhat more time consuming but also fun at the same time. I personally could not tell the difference between the Indigo (/250) and Blue (/150) Parallels they look pretty much identical. That would be my only complaint about the set really. I spent $160 on blaster boxes and got 1 auto of Shed Long. Odds are not in your favor with the higher print runs than in previous years.
