Topps #TBT arrives with new approach for 2021

The first Thursday of 2021 means we've got the first chapter of the Topps #TBT set for this year -- and it's a release that will have some new twists this year.

New in the mix? Photo variations and parallels -- and a smaller set that will have a theme carrying over more than one week.

The sixth year of the program will include just three cards per week with the variations coming one in 20 packs and then parallels that are possible and limited to 10, five and just one copy.

This first set? It's a take on the 1961 Topps Bazooka set and it leads off with Mike Trout, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Cal Ripken Jr. The Bazooka run will span three more weeks until Topps switches to a different throwback -- in essence making each run 12 cards (with the possibility of working in players who have made waves on the field recently) instead of just five in one shot.

We'll add each week's set to the gallery here as they arrive.
