0

Update, June 6: The Fanatics blasters are now available for presale on Fanatics (Baseball America may earn a commission based on purchases made via the affiliate links in this story), and Topps has released the full list of merchandise redemptions:

Series 2 of Topps’ 2025 flagship set drops June 11, and the checklist indicates that the popular “Fanatics Blasters,” which features redemption cards that can be used to get autographed balls, jerseys and more, will be returning.

Fanatics Blasters will not only feature some really big names, but will also be easier than ever to find. Previously, the odds of finding a redemption card were one in every 251 blaster boxes. This time, Topps’ odds indicate that the cards will be in one out of every 75 boxes.

That will be music to collectors’ ears, as Paul Skenes, Shohei Ohtani, Ken Griffey Jr. and soon-to-be Hall-of-Famer Ichiro Suzuki are among the players who will have signed merchandise redemption cards in the boxes.

The redemptions are available only in Fanatics Blasters, which are now available for preorder on Fanatics.com. Other formats for Series 2 will be available at Topps.com on June 11.
