2025 Topps Holiday, mega box

The 2025 Topps Holiday was released in late October. Once this product was released, I decided to order 2 mega boxes of the 2025 Topps Holiday on amazon. Nonetheless, things didn’t go as expected. The order didn’t arrive.

 

A few weeks ago, I saw a vendor selling this product on amazon and I decided to order again. This time, I only ordered a mega box. And thankfully, it arrived. So, let’s see what I got.

The 2025 Topps Holiday has been a bit different this time. A hit isn’t guaranteed anymore. Hence, my expectation was modest. Moreover, the delay was quite annoying and I had to order it again.

 

However, after opening this mega box. Things are getting a little bit more interesting. Firstly, I found a Roki Sasaki oversized die-cut ornament. His performance during the regular season wasn’t so impressive. Nonetheless, he did a good job in the playoffs. It’s fun to collect this one.

 

In addition, a Nick Kurtz rookie card is a good one. He’s been fantastic after being called up and won the AL Rookie of the year award. Furthermore, there’s a new back variation short print card. At the beginning, I didn’t see its difference. After checking the back, I realized it’s a new SP card. I’m glad to add it into the collection.

 

Finally, there’s a hit in this mega box and it’s a numbered one. I watched some videos on YouTube and didn’t anticipate seeing a hit in this mega box. Nevertheless, I found one. And this time, it’s a game-used memorabilia card. As you can see, there’s a piece of game-used jersey from Sal Frelick. Previously, I normally found a player-worn memorabilia card from this brand.

 

For me, it’s fun to open this mega box. Although it took a little bit more time to get this product, the result is acceptable. Nonetheless, a fun thing is to find a hit from this product. With some changes this year, I don’t know if collectors would like to see these changes. In particular, it’s getting harder to get a hit.
