2022 Topps Allen and Ginter Chrome - Blue Refractor

Year: 2022
Manufacturer: Topps
Set: Allen & Ginter Chrome
Card Number: 89
Card Type: Parallel
Parallel Set: Blue
Card Attributes: Serial Numbered
Serial Number: 067/150

Topps loves to chrome out it's card sets.  And of course it also loves to save money by reusing a previous design with that chrome printing technology.  But I'll be honest other than I find that unopened chrome products tend to be way overpriced for what you get, I'm a sucker for shiny things.

Take this great Blue parallel of Robin Younts 2022 A&G Chrome card.  A close color match for team colors it really does pop in hand.

2024 Topps Five Star - Yount Checklist

 This product is expensive and rough.  But once again Robin has a bunch of autos to chase this year.  I'll start adding images when stuff starts popping up and add serial numbering.

2024 Topps Update - Yount Checklist

 Robin has only one card to chase in this year's update set, but it's a big one.  Robin finally gets his own Legendary Home Field Advantage card!!!  These Legendary cards are much harder and rarer than the regular HFA cards.  So good luck out there hunting this one down.

2024 Leaf Decadence - Yount Checklist

 I swear I have no radar for Leaf products and if Robin is in the product it just shows up in my ebay saved searches.  That being Robin is featured with 7 HOFers on the Octet set in this product.  An insanely expensive unlicensed product, but in very cool packaging.  You should check out some of the breaks of this.  Is it worth $800-900 a box for 3 cards, no.

2024 Panini Crusade Baseball - Yount Checklist

 Kind of a surprise release that snuck under my radar.  Robin has a base card in the set, which isn't surprising since Panini is only allowed to use retired and prospect players in these baseball releases, but Robin doesn't have any cards in the inserts or auto sets.  But we get a base card and the parallels to chase.

2024 Leaf Electrum Multi-Sport Yount Checklist

 Don't confuse this release with the Leaf's Electrum Baseball, which oddly enough Robin does not have any cards in.  But Robin does have some autos to chase in this one.  And I just picked one of them up super cheap which I will share when I get it.

2024 Topps Spotlight by Andy Friedman Yount checklist

 Another Topps online exclusive.  I missed that Robin was in this when it offered.  I don't even remember seeing a checklist when this came out.  Anyway, Robin has an insert in the offering that also has a few parallels to chase.

2023 Topps Rip - Riptide Mini


Year: 2023
Manufacturer: Topps
Set: Rip
Card Number: MRIP-RY
Card Type: Insert parallel
Parallel Set: Riptide
Insert Type: Rip Mini
Card Attributes: Serial Numbered
Serial number: 30/30

Back in 2020 Topps took what is arguably one of the best and most desirable aspects of Allen and Ginter, the rip cards, and just made a product of just rip cards.  And so Topps Rip was born.  They have so far put the set out every year.  Who knows if there will be one in 2024 as Fanatics does not do a lot of pre-release announcements.  So we'll have to wait and see if Rip returns for 2024.  

The concept is pretty simple every card in a box of Topps Rip is a rip card.  All the rip cards also have parallels and inside the rip cards in one mini card.  Those mini's also have parallels and autograph and auto parallels.   While Robin has yet to be featured on a rip card he has been featured on a mini card in 2020, 2021, and 2023, and as an autograph subject in 2020, 2021, and 2022.

That being said I just picked up my first Yount card from the offering.  This great 2023 Riptide Mini parallel, numbered to just 30 copies.  For those curious these mini's are the same size as the Allen and Ginter mini's and fit in the tobacco sized supplies.

2024 Historic Autographs & Card Co - All-Time Greats Yount Checklist

 I'll be honest Historic Autographs is pretty niche.  So much so that it falls under my radar 99% of the time, but there are enough Yount cards on ebay that the product is hard to avoid.  Robin supposedly has 2 autos in the set and it looks like all autos are cut autos.  Haven't seen one of the autos pop up yet but there are quite a few parallels to chase.  The base set has 8 Tiers, all having a lower print run as you move up in tiers and a different foil design.

 While not in the base checklist Robin does have an auto and auto parallels to chase.
