2025 Topps Chrome McDonald’s All American Basketball allows prospectors to get their hands on new cards of top up-and-coming basketball stars before they hit the big-time.
The product features a lot of familiar Chrome elements — namely, colorful parallels, plenty of autographs, and lots of inserts. Collectors will also see a lot of the red and yellow colors that have become synonymous with McDonald’s restaurants over the years, as well as many designs inspired by Brooklyn, the host of the 2025 All American Games.
There will likely be a variety of traditional Chrome Refractors in different colors, but collectors will also be on the lookout for special McDonald’s-themed parallels like McDonald’s Logo Refractors and McFlurry Refractors. Topps also announced a Tie-Dye Refractor parallel, and box imagery suggests Gold parallels are hobby exclusive, while RayWave parallels can be found in mega boxes.
Collectors will find several autograph concepts within the product.
Event Autographs offer simplistic, hard-signed cards with posed shots of players from the 2025 All American Game and a McDonald’s color scheme.
he 2025 McDonald’s All American Games were held in Brooklyn, New York, on April 1, 2025, and the city is included in the theming for additional autographs and inserts, such as Winning Tags and Billboard Ink.
Collectors can go back in time to re-visit some of the McDonald’s All-Americans who later became superstars in Legends Autographs.
Inserts include Top Recruits, Prospect Paths, and Hype to Legacy.
Adding elements of Brooklyn’s urban style into the design are All-American Drip, Concrete Canvas, and High Rise.
