Frequently asked
What makes this product special compared to regular Topps releases?
This is a collaboration with world-renowned artist KAWS, who reimagined 60 MLB stars through his iconic abstract style. Every pack is guaranteed to hit with either a parallel, KAWS Creation insert, short print, or autograph, making it a premium experience.
Who are the key autograph cards to chase?
The five on-card (hard-signed) autographs are the crown jewels: Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge, Derek Jeter, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Roki Sasaki. Beyond those, there are 41 total autograph cards featuring MLB legends and rookies, plus ultra-rare KAWS-signed SSP cards.
What's the difference between the KAWS Creations and KAWS Companion SPs?
KAWS Creations are the main insert set at 1:12 packs, featuring 25 players reimagined in KAWS' colorful abstract style. KAWS Companion SPs are much rarer at 1:78 packs and showcase some of KAWS' most famous artwork designs.
How do the base card parallels work?
There's an unnumbered parallel at 1:3 packs, then a rainbow of 10 numbered tiers ranging from Aqua /199 down to the ultra-rare Foilfractor 1/1. Each tier has its own pull rate, with the rarest (Red /5 and Foilfractor 1/1) being case-hit level.
What does the base set look like?
The 60-card base set features a multi-colored border inspired by 1990 Topps Baseball, with KAWS' signature XX symbol in the upper right corner. The set mixes current stars like Juan Soto and Mookie Betts with legends like Derek Jeter and Ken Griffey Jr.
Is there a KAWS autograph card?
Yes. Artist KAWS designed and signed five super short-printed autograph cards of himself (SSP-K11 through SSP-K15), available in Black /10, Red /5, and Foilfractor 1/1 versions. These are extremely rare pulls.
