Elevated For the first time, Topps brings the world of Arrakis into Chrome with the 2024 Dune Chrome. This inaugural edition transforms the sweeping saga of spice, prophecy, and power into a collector’s chase, blending Chrome technology with unforgettable characters and visuals. It’s a historic launch that marks the beginning of Dune’s journey in the trading card hobby.
Dune Chrome brings Arrakis into chromium for the first time, merging the franchise’s cinematic world with Topps Chrome tech, refractors, and premium chases. Building on the 2024 Topps Dune (non-Chrome) debut, 2024 Dune Chrome arrives with inserts, relics, and autograph content designed for both film fans and Chrome collectors.
The History Behind Topps Dune Chrome®
Topps first explored the sands of Arrakis in 2024 with Topps Dune, a cinematic trading card set spotlighting characters and scenes. Riding that success, Dune Chrome debuts in 2025, reimagining the saga in chromium with signature Chrome parallels, refractors, and numbered hits—elevating Dune from a movie collectible to a premium, Hobby-driven experience.
Why does Topps Dune Chrome® Matter?
It turns a prestige sci-fi world into true chase cards. The Chrome finish makes the franchise’s cinematic aesthetic pop, while refractors and parallels create natural rainbows for set builders and numbered hits for hunters. Tied to a multi-Oscar franchise, it brings film fans into The Hobby, giving entertainment collectors crossover appeal and long-tail value.
Who is 2024 Dune Chrome® For?
Fans of the Dune universe who want cinematic characters and scenes in a premium finish, entertainment card collectors chasing film/TV IP with display pop and parallel depth, and Chrome diehards who love building refractor rainbows and numbered runs. It’s a clean on-ramp for movie fans and a rich chase for seasoned collectors.
What am I Chasing in 2024 Dune Chrome®?
In 2024 Dune Chrome®, the chase opens with inserts. Dune Acrylics put the 25 most important characters on acrylic, spanning top subjects from Dune: Part One and Part Two. Dune Walls showcases textured art pieces from the films alongside the characters, while Behind the Scenes highlights the talent from Part One. Adversaries frame on-screen conflict as two individual cards, pairing the actors across the divide.
On the hit side, Dune Authentic Relic Autographs deliver autograph versions of the insert with top talent from both films. Relic hunters can target Manufactured Character Medallion Cards—medallions of House Atreides, House Harkonnen, or Dune symbols paired with franchise characters. There are additional relics beyond these headline types.
