2023 Topps Holiday Mega Box #H17 Shohei Ohtani
Do you remember the rush of Christmas mornings as a kid? That pure excitement, the hope of unwrapping that one coveted gift from your list? In 2023, Shohei Ohtani experienced that same euphoria, capturing his second AL MVP. The joy on his card mirrors the feeling of hitting a home run on your holiday wish list.

2023 Topps Holiday Mega Box #H113 Corbin Carroll RC
Carroll played the role of Santa in 2023, gifting the Diamondbacks faithful with its first World Series appearance since 2001. You see the drip on the card and the 32 oz. candy cane. Corbin Claus is here to stay.

2023 Topps Holiday Mega Box #H43 Ronald Acuña Jr.
Atlanta failed on its Christmas goal of winning a World Series in 2023, but that’s no fault of Acuña. The holly, jolly outfielder became the first player in MLB history to hit 40 homers and steal 70 bases in a season, earning NL MVP honors. Talk about a stocking full.

2023 Topps Holiday Mega Box #WHFAR-SC Santa Claus Auto Relic
Santa’s a global celebrity, so it only makes sense that he’d have his own card. This baby here also features an autograph from the one and only SC and a relic from his hat. Yes, it was game-worn. SC’s played in a ton of outings throughout the years.

2023 Topps Holiday Mega Box #RC-JJ Josh Jung RC
The Rangers took home the ultimate prize in 2023, winning their first World Series in franchise history. Jung served as one of the main reindeer, enjoying a successful rookie season and helping drive Texas to the mountaintop. Not only is the design for the card above incredibly festive, it’s also a rookie relic from a world champ.
