Great review of Series 2, the inserts in this release look great with the K zone and the all kings hard pulls but great looking. Looks like update will be better but not hit full potential with Jac and Mayer headed towards 2026 Series 1. Great stuff as always!!

Yeah, man, now we're talking -- Update will have some beasts! Do we know if Roman Anthony will qualify for Update? Gotta get Patrick on that -- he's pretty good knowing the RC ins and outs!

From what i read an article Topps will only include those who made their debut prior to June 1. This would knock out Jac and Roman. https://www.si.com/collectibles/news/topps-isn-t-making-anymore-rookie-cards-in-2025-01jwv2d16z2r

Boooooooooooo! That certainly narrows the RC list for 2025 Topps Update. Matt Shaw, Kristian Campbell, Marcelo Mayer and Cam Smith...

I know right!!! Update could have been a monster rip! Will still be better than series 2 but the what could have been. I understand this gives 26 series 1 a major boost

Very true, and remember, that 2026 Topps Series 1 set will be the company's 75th Anniversary set, so having awesome RCs could make whatever they have in store even better! (I am still hoping the All-Time All-Stars makes an appearance, with updated All-Timers at each position. The Topps Heritage version this year was kinda weak.)

Never thought of that. I wonder if they will make a special parallel to be used with the anniversary. I mean given how many we got id say yes but this will be cool!!
