2023 Topps Chrome MLS Pearlers

The Chrome MLS release that captures Messi's first full season at Inter Miami. At ~1,700 hobby cases, the print run is modest — significantly lower than Chrome UEFA — which means each card has roughly 987 total colored parallels. The dual-track system (standard + Lava/Wave/Mini-Diamond at matching numbering) gives deep chase variety. 1 auto per hobby box is standard Chrome fare. The 1958 Topps insert (1:6) applies the classic baseball card design to MLS stars, and Pearlers (~120 print run) are the premium case hit. A solid product elevated by the Messi factor and reasonable print runs.
