Ilia Topuria Greetings From #GF-8: 2025 Topps Midnight UFC
Greetings From #GF-8 is the 2025 Topps Midnight UFC card that shows Ilia Topuria with the belt in front of a giant “298”, the night of UFC 298. We have catalogued 3 versions; 2 have a photo of the actual copy.
Greetings From is a 25-card insert in 2025 Topps Midnight UFC that ties each fighter to his big night, with a retro-futuristic design, arcade aesthetics and “bold UFC event numbers”, per the Topps guide. Ilia Topuria is #GF-8, per the official checklist, and his number is 298.
That night's opponent is in the same insert: Alexander Volkanovski is #GF-24. Jon Jones, Conor McGregor, Max Holloway and Merab Dvalishvili are in it too.
GF-8 front and back
Front, landscape: Ilia Topuria with the UFC world championship belt over his shoulder, in front of a huge “298” in blue prismatic relief; on the right, a pink neon strip with the UFC octagon, his name and “Featherweight”.
The Daybreak /5 changes the background: multicoloured cracked ice and the strip in red, per the photo of our copy.
Back: “Greetings From” in eighties-style chrome letters and the story of the night: in the UFC 298 main event he won the featherweight title and a Performance of the Night bonus, knocking out Alexander Volkanovski at 3:32 of the second round; the back counts it as the seventh straight win to start his career.
2025 Midnight UFC has one 7-card pack per box and 8 boxes per case; it was released on August 8, 2025 at $249.99 a box, per Checklist Insider, a secondary source. Per-box odds from the official sheet, with Ilia Topuria's own card in brackets (our estimate, odds × 25):
No colour, unnumbered: 1:42 (1:1,050).
Daybreak /5: 1:170 (1:4,250).
Black Light 1/1: 1:850 (1:21,250).
Some GF-8, any of them, every 810 boxes on average, about a hundred cases. Our estimate, with an even split among the 25.
Worth knowing about Greetings From
The no-colour card is not plentiful: with the odds on the same sheet and a proportional split, there would be about 20 copies per fighter. Our estimate.
Case hit?Checklist Insider says so, a secondary source, but the Topps guide does not: it presents it as an exclusive insert, which is why it is not on our case hits page. Night Vision, the other new insert of 2025, has exactly the same odds, and Ilia Topuria is not in it.
