Ohtani One-of-One Card Lands Over $10 Million

A one-of-one Shohei Ohtani Topps Gold Logoman dual autograph card — with two gold MLB logo patches and English and Kanji autographs — was pulled in Boca Raton and sold for more than $10 million. The patches commemorate back-to-back MVP seasons (2024–25) and come from a Sept. 7, 2025 road game and a Apr. 12, 2026 home game; the card’s value is driven by Ohtani’s 2024–25 production (63 doubles, 109 homers, 232 RBI in 317 games) and a 2.87 ERA over 14 appearances in 2025 as the Dodgers secured World Series titles in both years.

Time Extension reports that Nintendo’s original Star Fox puppets—Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Peppy Hare, and Slippy Toad—were destroyed after production because fur glued to natural rubber deteriorated in air; they were used for box art, promos, and the strategy guide before disappearing.
