The Topps Update release brings an end to the Flagship’s yearly set. Normally, it provides players in new uniforms after mid season trades, as well as some All Star content. This year, while the release comes at the normal time of year, it seems the content cut-off was much earlier. For whatever reason, deadline trades are not included in the set. It makes for a weird scenario where some late season trades could potentially have their only cards with their new teams in next year’s releases, after they have moved on as free agents.

This release continues with the parallels found in series one and two. , but with a separate update series numbering scheme. Many inserts sets, such as the 1986 style cards are continues in this set, as well. A jumbo box contains ten packs with forty-six cards per pack. Each box also advertises 1 Autograph and 2 Relic Cards per box. It also includes three special silver packs, featuring 1986 Chrome and Tek inserts.

This box contained:
