Yesterday, I showed off the contents from the first window of the 2025 Topps Advent Calendar. Now that it's a new day, it's time to open another window!
Today's gift is another pack of cards (remember, the Advent Calendar promises 20 packs plus four other items: 1 Exclusive Evergreen pack, 1 Original pack, and 2 stamped original cards). So, no surprise that two days in, we've seen two packs.
Day 2:
H168. Rece Hinds
Our first Reds card of the Advent Calendar! With only a 200-card base set, I have to admit that I'm surprised that Hinds made the cut. My best guess is that Topps wanted yet another rookie included.
H193. Masyn Winn
A nice rookie cup card of Winn. I do like the overall look of this year's holiday set. I think it's the large snowflakes that seal the deal for me.
H171. Francisco Lindor
Plaid parallel
Our second pack, our second plaid parallel. Are these one-per-pack in Advent calendars, or am I getting lucky thus far? I guess time will tell since Topps refuses to print odds on their pack wrappers anymore. Is it bad that I'm starting to get tempted by the allure of collecting the Plaid parallel set?!
MNL-19. Oneil Cruz
Making the Nice List insert
My second Making the Nice List insert as well in as many packs! These are also Advent Calendar exclusives.
H100. Bobby Witt, Jr.
I'm happy to get this card because Bobby Witt, Jr. is one of my current favorite non-Reds players in MLB. I've had Witt on my fantasy team for the past several years, and he's been a stalwart of points for me! Definitely glad to get this particular card.
And that does it for Day 2 of the Advent Calendar. So far, so good I'd say. I am enjoying the holiday vibes!
