Topps Chrome Football will feature Tecmo Super Bowl themed insert cards in its upcoming set. The design is inspired by the touchdown celebration screen from the 1991 game. This marks the first licensed NFL trading card product from Topps in more than a decade.
Tecmo Bowl Nostalgia
Fanatics Collectibles CEO Mike Mahan expressed his enthusiasm for the Tecmo Bowl video games. He said he is willing to participate in impromptu tournaments. Mahan’s love for the game explains his excitement for the new insert card subset in the 2025 Topps Chrome Football set.
Mahan said that the Tecmo Super Bowl cards will be a “nod to the past”. He added that the cards will mean the world to a lot of people because the game was important to them growing up.
Insert Card Details
The checklist will include 13 former players and 10 current players. Former players include Bo Jackson, John Elway, and Joe Montana. Current players include Josh Allen, Jayden Daniels, Jaxson Dart, Saquon Barkley, and Cam Ward.
- These cards will be case hits.
- One will appear in roughly every 12 hobby boxes or more.
- Both white-ink autographed and non-autographed versions will be available.
PREM1ERE Patch Autographed Cards
The Chrome set includes the NFL version of the MLB Rookie Debut patch autographed cards. The one-of-one Topps Rookie PREM1ERE patch autographed cards will appear in 2025 Topps Chrome Football. Members of the 2025 NFL Draft class wore the PREM1ERE patch on their jersey during their first NFL regular season appearance last season.
The patch was then removed and placed into a rookie card.
NFL Honors Autographed Cards
Chrome will also feature one-of-one NFL Honors gold shield patch autographed cards. These cards will be from the 2024 league award winners for MVP (Allen), Offensive Player of the Year (Barkley), and Defensive Player of the Year (Patrick Surtain II).
