2024 Topps Chrome Cosmic #SF16, StarFractor ⭐️ Paul Skenes RC
This is an under the radar insert, even by Paul Skenes hype standards.
If BaseballCardPedia's estimate of roughly 45 copies is even close, then this StarFractor is significantly tougher than many Skenes cards, including numbered and tough parallels.

2024 Topps Chrome Cosmic #STM-8 Stars In The Night ⭐️ Paul Skenes RC
This has quickly become one of Paul Skenes' most popular RCs.
The Stars in the Night insert is widely regarded as one of the best-looking insert sets for all 2024 releases.
Topps does not publicly announce the print run for this card, but hobby experts estimate approximately 2,175 copies of each Stars in the Night insert were produced, making it substantially scarcer than most mainstream rookie cards.

2024 Topps Chrome Cosmic #PPS-6, Planetary Pursuit Sun ⭐️ Paul Skenes RC
This is one of my first favorite Paul Skenes rookie cards that I came across.
For me, the thing that distinguished this card from others was that the Skenes Sun card is cool and it's a rookie card.

Unlike other collectors, I'm not looking to build the entire Skenes planetary orbit.
The Sun is awesome and plenty for me and my wallet.😂

2024 Topps Chrome Cosmic #30 ⭐️ Paul Skenes RC
This was my son's first favorite Paul Skenes RC.
When he showed it to me for the first time I was also smitten.
It's a superb piece of cardboard artwork.

2024 Topps Chrome Cosmic #ALT5, Star Command⭐️ Paul Skenes RC
This card has an odd numbering quirk.
Topps intended Skenes' card to be numbered "SC-14", but the card was actually printed as "ALT-5" on all copies. That printing anomaly gives the card a small conversation-piece factor that many collectors are unaware of.
Because of the unusual ALT-5 numbering error, this card is more memorable than most insert rookies. Years from now, Skenes collectors will remember the Cosmic Star Command card that was supposed to be SC-14 but was printed ALT-5.
