The collection also includes Topps trading cards, New Era caps, Rawlings baseballs and gloves, Victus bats, totes, keychains, and more.
In a special addition, Murakami’s Ohana Hatake brand will debut exclusive Surippa Ohana slides, blending his signature flower motif with the Cubs and Dodgers logos. Collectors will also have a chance to score the 2025 Topps x Murakami MLB Tokyo Series Matchup Set ($120), featuring 25 cards with rare parallels and autographs, including a one-of-one dual-autograph card of Murakami and Ohtani.
