** UPDATE **
Pujols hand-signed 20 copies of his Elite Series card, and reportedly was amused at seeing the nearly 12-year-old image of himself decked out in his Fort Osage Indians jersey.

Highlights of the 150-card base set include:
- Cards of the first 18 players in the Autographed Rookies subset were sent out for on-card autographs - a first for EEE. Their parallel cards will be sticker autographs. "The intent was to make those players' on-card Autographed Rookies as valuable as possible," Payne said. "To do that, and keep enough autographs in the program, we opted to use stickers for the Turn of the Century parallels and for any inserts they may appear on."
- The first certified autographs of Aroldis Chapman - The 22-year-old lefthander and Cuban defector had not signed with a major league club at the time of the printing of EEE, so he is pictured in his Holguin uniform whom he played for in the Cuban National Series last year.
- Some 42 first-round or supplemental first-round picks have autographs in the set

Other highlights of the product:
- Pete Rose autographs and memorabilia cards
- Elite Series autographs, Back to the Future Signatures and Private Signings - autographed sweet spot baseball swatch material - make their debuts
- Throwback Threads - with, among others, an LSU Jared Mitchell jersey, a Brownwood HS Shelby Miller jersey, a Mike Minor Braves jersey worn during the 2009 Arizona Fall League, an Arizona State Jason Kipnis jersey and a Millville HS jersey worn by Mike Trout
- Yes, there will be Hot Boxes
