2021 Topps Finest Baseball
On the surface, 2021 Topps Finest Baseball will look very similar to what it has in the past with intricate designs on chrome stock. This year’s edition will even feature the typical 100 card base set with a 25 card extended base set. However, 2021 Topps Finest Baseball adds nearly twice as many color variation Refractor parallels with limited print runs, as well as Finest Rookies Design Variations which swap out the typical card background for the best rookies in the set. In the 2021 set, you will be able to find rookies for players like Alec Bohm and Ke’Bryan Hayes.
Each 2021 Topps Finest Baseball Hobby Box comes with two mini boxes inside, within a mini box you will find six packs holding five cards per pack. Similar to past releases of Topps Finest Baseball, each mini box should contain one autograph card, meaning you should find two total autographs in the hobby box.

2021 Panini Absolute Baseball
2021 Panini Absolute Baseball is the follow-up to the debut of the Absolute Baseball set in 2020. The main format change this year is each hobby box will only promise two autograph cards as opposed to the four that you could find in the 2020 edition. The base set contains 100 cards and features players who are members of the MLBPA. You will not see team logos or trademarks anywhere on these cards, as Panini does not hold the MLB license. Autograph and Memorabilia subsets are once again the most appealing part of the overall set, rookie autographs for Ke’Bryan Hayes and Cristian Pache have been teased in the preview from Topps.
Inside the 2021 Panini Absolute Baseball Hobby Box, you will find two packs that hold ten cards each. On average you will add two autographs, two relics, and one serial numbered limited print run insert to your collection. Also new to the 2021 Panini Absolute Baseball Hobby Box are some Hobby exclusive color variation parallels such as Holo Silvers that will have a print run of 199, and Spectrum Black one-of-one cards.
