2025 Topps Chrome Disney #116 Rapunzel SN75 - Purple Wave Parallel Magic
Hello, Dreamer Collectors!
If you have ever stood under the lanterns at Disneyland during the Tangled area viewing, you know there is something absolutely magical about Rapunzel. And now, that magic is captured in chrome with the 2025 Topps Chrome Disney card 116 featuring Rapunzel in a stunning Purple Wave parallel, serial numbered to just 75 copies. This card is a must-have for any Disney collector who loves the princess with the golden hair and an even brighter spirit.
The Visual Wonder of Chrome and Purple Wave
This is not just another Rapunzel card. The 2025 Topps Chrome Disney set brings that signature Chrome shimmer, but the Purple Wave parallel takes it to a whole new level. The purple wave pattern flows across the card like magical lanterns floating across the night sky, just like in that breathtaking scene from Tangled. Rapunzel is front and center, her long golden hair cascading down, those big green eyes full of hope and adventure. The Chrome finish catches the light beautifully, while the Purple Wave overlay adds depth and a sense of motion, almost like you are watching her hair sway in the breeze from her tower window.
The Topps Disney branding sits crisp and clean, and the serial numbering SN75 reminds you that this is a limited treasure. Only 75 of these exist, making it a true chase card in the parallel hierarchy. The purple tones complement Rapunzel perfectly - she is the girl who dreamed of seeing the floating lights, and this card brings those purple, pink, and golden hues right into your hands.
When you wish upon a lantern, your dreams take flight - and this card is proof that magic is real.
A Memory from the Parks
I will never forget the first time I saw the Tangled tower at Disneyland. It was right after the Fantasyland expansion, and I walked through the archway into that beautiful courtyard. The tower stood tall, draped in her iconic purple flag, and I could almost hear the music from the movie playing in my head. I grabbed a snack from Maurice's Treats nearby and just sat there, watching little kids run around with Rapunzel-inspired crowns and Pascal plushies. That feeling of pure Disney joy is exactly what I get when I look at this Purple Wave parallel. It is like holding a piece of that magic in cardstock form.
I have also been lucky enough to collect some Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom spell cards featuring Tangled characters, and pairing those with Chrome Disney cards like this one makes my collection feel complete. There is something about combining different types of Disney collectibles that just feels right.
Collector Notes and Set Context
The 2025 Topps Chrome Disney set is packed with fan-favorite characters, and Rapunzel as card 116 sits in a sweet spot within the checklist. The Purple Wave parallel is a mid-tier chase in terms of rarity, serial numbered to 75 copies. That puts it above base refractors and some of the more common color parallels, but still attainable for dedicated collectors. It is not a case hit, but it is absolutely a binder showpiece.
This card will appeal to princess collectors, Tangled fans, Chrome enthusiasts, and anyone chasing the numbered parallels in this set. The Topps Chrome Disney line has been a collector favorite for its beautiful chrome aesthetics and strong Disney IP, and the 2025 edition continues that tradition with gorgeous card designs and a variety of parallel levels to chase.
Display and Usage Ideas
A card this beautiful deserves proper presentation. I recommend a magnetic one-touch holder to protect that Chrome finish and let the Purple Wave shimmer shine through. If you are building a Tangled mini-collection, pair this with other Rapunzel cards, Flynn Rider inserts, or even Tangled concept art cards from the Disneyland 70th set if you have any. You could also create a princess rainbow display, organizing your Chrome Disney princess cards by their parallel colors.
For grading fans, this is a great candidate for PSA or BGS if you pull one in pristine condition. A high-grade SN75 Purple Wave Rapunzel would be a stunning centerpiece in a graded showcase. And if you love binder pages as much as I do, place this front and center in a nine-pocket page surrounded by complementary purple or gold cards for maximum visual impact.
Adding This Magic to My Collection
I actually snagged this one during a late-night Topps Chrome Disney box break, and let me tell you, seeing that purple shimmer come across the camera feed was pure excitement. I marked it as Have in the Collectiblz app right away, and it is such a satisfying feeling to see that completion percentage tick up. If you are tracking your 2025 Topps Chrome Disney collection, the Collectiblz app is a must - open the set checklist, mark your Haves and Needs, and watch your progress. It makes collecting so much more fun, and you will always know exactly which parallels you are still chasing.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 Topps Chrome Disney card 116 featuring Rapunzel in a Purple Wave parallel is everything a Disney card should be: beautiful, nostalgic, and collectible. Whether you are a Tangled super-fan, a Chrome completist, or someone who just loves a gorgeous princess card, this one deserves a spot in your collection. With only 75 copies out there, it is a chase worth pursuing.
Keep dreaming, keep collecting, and may your next pack bring you the magic you are searching for!
