Topps Cosmic Chrome is a fantastic update to Topps Chrome – delivering a range of Rookie Cards (RC) that will complement longstanding favorites like the Topps Chrome Rookie Autos. Topps Cosmic Chrome also includes chase-worthy inserts like the 100-card Starfractor featuring the most explosive players in the MLB and Galactic Greatness featuring some of the greatest players of all time. Topps Cosmic Chrome provides unique investment cards for the practiced collector.  

The History

Beginning in 2022, Topps Cosmic Chrome is the newest iteration of premium products that Topps and other brands started developing and manufacturing in the early 1990s – Topps Chrome, which launched in 1996, being the obvious product progenitor. Unlike Topps Finest, which successfully introduced Topps Refractor cards to collectors, Topps Chrome remained faithful to the design and images of Topps Baseball with elevated materials. 

WHY TOPPS COSMIC CHROME MATTERS

Topps Cosmic Chrome tweaks Topps Chrome’s elevated products by maintaining the player images that collectors expect from Topps but with a cosmic approach to color and background design. This product is lovingly manufactured with chromium technology, creating durable, long-lasting cards. If Topps Chrome is the Hubble Telescope of cards, then Topps Cosmic Chrome is the Webb Telescope—giving collectors a whole new way to view the players and products in the card-collecting universe.  

WHAT AM I CHASING?

For 2024 Cosmic Chrome, expect Shohei Ohtani, Jasson Dominquez RCs, and galactic-themed designs on chrome tech, making the cards in this product fun to chase.
