2021 Topps Factory Set
Picked up WalMart 2021 Topps set today. Comes with 5 foilboard parallels. Also states that 1 in every 3 sets is a complete parallel set. I never open them, so won't know what I got. Since I have all of the Topps sets since 1972 (minus 1976, 1977 and 1 card in 1973), I am hoping it is just the regular base set.
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

1 in 3 sets being a parallel set makes it sound like the parallels aren't at all very rare

RE: 2021 Topps Factory Set
That would be cool to get a complete parallel set. My question is - if you get a parallel set, do you get 5 base cards? LOL just kidding. I think getting a complete parallel # set (all cards with the same serial #) would be cool. I always open everything I purchase

Won't be the first time 1992 Gold comes to mind

1992 Topps Gold was a specially marked factory set, not a surprise.
However, 1993 Upper Deck Gold Hologram were only 1 per case. Those are awesome!
All-time favorite insert card designs:
- 1991 Donruss Elite
- 1995 Studio Platinum
- 1994 Flair Hot Glove
- 1993 Ultra Award Winners
- 2001 Bowman Heritage Chrome
- 1994 Fleer All-Stars

I saw those at Doosh Mart over the weekend - first cards of any kind I've seen there in maybe three, four months?
Pass.
Packs or blasters would have been more fun, Topps.

Doesn't mean they are the same parallel set- the Gold Stars from last year aren't rare, the Orange (/99) are very rare.
