Soccer fans have a lot of stars from around the world to spend their hobby dollars on, but it seems more than a few of them have high-end rarities all in one place.

That's inside a box of the ultra-high-end 2018 Panini Eminence World Cup Soccer.

Those crafted wood boxes include at least 10 cards (nine autographs) but there also are Hot Boxes that include as many as 15 cards (one in four boxes). These scorchers have included gems like the Lionel Messi 1/1 diamond autograph you see above. Earlier this month, that card collected 38 bids on eBay and sold for $4,450.

And it's not alone ... nor is it the highest sale in recent weeks.

There’s a newcomer in the Topps lineup this year with a legendary rainbow of Refractors that has thrilled collectors worldwide for years now in a number of sports. It's hit the Champions League pitch for the first time this year, though, with a roster of signers that that could contend for a World Cup if there was one for soccer cards.

It’s 2017-18 Topps Chrome UEFA Champions League and it arrived last week with some of the biggest autographs in the global game possible in every box — but without a high-end price.

Also helping this one heat up? Team colors -- stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo are featured in their natural uniforms. Also adding some power? Timing and a limited release. This one has arrived well before the World Cup, giving it time to gain momentum before demand for soccer cards kicks in even harder atop interest in this inaugural release. It's also only found in hobby shops, not at Walmart or Target.
