2021 Topps Baseball Factory Sets Details
2021 Topps Baseball factory sets are the easiest way to put together a flagship base set. And while the main draw is the complete set, collectors have some choice for how they want to go about it.
Collectors can expect a few different approaches the pre-built sets. Typically hobby and retail are the two major releases. However, for several years, additional versions have also been available with other exclusives or angles.
No matter the type of factory set, the main content are the base cards. They bring together all 660 base cards from the 2021 Topps Series 1 and Series 2 release. 2021 marks the 70th anniversary of Topps baseball cards.
Factory Set Exclusives
Hobby
Hobby sets stick with what has been done for several years. Each comes with an additional pack of five Foilboard parallels. These are exclusive to hobby sets and not available anywhere else, whether that’s other complete sets or packs. Parallels are also serial numbered. These cards do not replace any base cards so you won’t be missing anything. The Foilboard parallels are an extra.
For player collectors, these are usually more coveted than the serial number reflects. That’s because a lot of factory sets stay in tact or are part of personal collections for those who might not do a lot of buying and selling otherwise. The result is cards that are fairly tough to track down, especially over time after breakers so their initial sales.
Retail
The main 2021 Topps Baseball retail factory set is a little different than hobby. Instead of the five Foilboard parallels, there are five exclusive Rookie Variations.
The set still has all 660 base cards. The variations are a bonus. So for the five players getting the alternate photo treatment, they act as a second card.
582 Montgomery Club
Now in its third year, members of Topps’ 582 Montgomery Club members receive a special factory set towards the end of the baseball season. All of the cards in these sets come with a special stamp. This essentially makes all of them exclusive parallels.

What is required to become a member of the 582 Montgomery Club?
@William – They have a short window each year to sign up. Renewals get first dibs so doubt there are many left after that. They’ve sold out very quickly the last couple of years.
Hi Ryan:
When will a card be out with Nolan Arenado in a Cardinals uniform?
Thank you!
Darcie Jamison
Savage, Minnesota
@Darcie – He does already with online sets like Topps Now (and probably a couple of others by now). I suspect he will in Topps Update and probably some sets before that as well.
PLEASE ADVISE WHEN 2021 BASEBALL CARD SET IS AVAILABLE AND PRICE
The release date (as of right now) is in the article. You’ll need to check with dealers for prices.
When will the topps 2021 complete set is available.
@Len – The hobby version came out this past week.
Where do I buy the 2022 cards am brand new snd want to start collecting
@Dennis – 2022 cards won’t be out until the new year. You can find baseball cards at card shops, online retailers and retail stores like Target and Walmart.
Ryan
I have a Topps Baseball Card collection with complete sets, Mint to X-Mint cards in binders from 1976 unit 2021. What would be my best avenue for price evaluation on this 45 year old collection. I know I have some very special cards within the sets but do not want to break these beautiful sets apart. The baseball memories and history within these sets bring back wonderful player memories.
Thanks….Dennis
