Best from the Breaks: a Week of Epic Topps VeeFriends Chrome 2025 Pulls

We hosted massive case break streams this week, Monday through Thursday, live on Whatnot, and the hits did not disappoint. Among the standout pulls: a Flex'n Fox Sketch Card 2/5 hand-drawn by Director of Comics D.J. Coffman, a Y2K Logical Lion /10, Witty Weasel Manga Red Speckle Refractor /5, and a Very, Very, Very, Very, Lucky Black Cat Pink Refractor /75.

In this format, we open a full case of Topps VeeFriends Chrome, either 12 Hobby Boxes or 40 Blaster Boxes, totaling 864 to 1,280+ cards respectively. Before the break begins, we auction off 102 character spots, each tied to a specific VeeFriend or rare insert, to receive every card of that character pulled during the break.

It's the perfect setup for character maxis and one of the most electric ways to collect, connect, and chase grails in real time.

Check our upcoming break schedule on Whatnot HERE.
