Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Card #99 - Buzz Lightyear to Star Command Rainbow Foil: A Tomorrowland Timeline Treasure
Greetings from the Happiest Place in My Card Binder!
Hey there, fellow Disney card lovers! Pull up a chair - or better yet, picture yourself right at the edge of the Tomorrowland Terrace with a Dole Whip in hand and a fresh pack of Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary cards waiting to be cracked open. That is exactly the kind of magical mood I am in today, because I have a card to talk about that absolutely made my heart do a little Space Mountain loop. We are looking at Card #99 from the 2025 Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary set - the Rainbow Foil Parallel of "Buzz Lightyear to Star Command," representing the Tomorrowland feature in the Timeline subset. And yes, it is every bit as sparkly and wonderful as it sounds.
About the Card and the 2025 Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Set
The 2025 Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary release is a full-on love letter to seven decades of The Happiest Place on Earth. Built around a 150-card base set, the product is packed with multiple subsets celebrating the park's history, iconic attractions, legendary snacks, and breathtaking concept art. There are four major base subsets: Then and Now (cards 1-82), Timeline (cards 83-99), Snack Time (cards 100-117), and Concept Art (cards 118-150).
Card #99 lives in the Timeline subset, and it holds a very special place - it is the final and closing card of those 17 milestone cards that chronicle the most unforgettable moments across Disneyland's incredible history. The Timeline subset spans events like the construction of Sleeping Beauty Castle, the grand opening, the debut of "it's a small world" after the World's Fair, Space Mountain shooting for the stars, and so much more. Card #99 - "Buzz Lightyear to Star Command" - captures the arrival of Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Tomorrowland, that beloved interactive shooting-game attraction that launched to infinity and beyond the hearts of park guests everywhere.
The Rainbow Foil Parallel - Shimmer, Shine, and Disney Magic
Now let's talk about the sparkle factor, because this Rainbow Foil parallel is genuinely stunning. The Rainbow Foil treatment wraps the card in a prismatic, multi-colored shimmer that catches light in the most dreamy way. The surface shifts and dances as you tilt the card, casting soft rainbow reflections that feel completely fitting for a Tomorrowland-themed card - almost like the neon glow you see lighting up that whole futuristic land after dark. The foil finish elevates what is already a compelling Timeline milestone image into something truly display-worthy.
In terms of availability, the Rainbow Foil is the most accessible parallel in this set, falling at approximately 1 per 2 hobby packs and 2 per value blaster box. This makes it a fantastic entry point into chasing the full parallel rainbow for any individual card in the checklist, with deeper parallel tiers like Blue Foil (/99), Gold Foil (/50), Orange Foil (/25), Black Foil (/10), Red Foil (/5), and the stunning Foilfractor 1-of-1 waiting for the most dedicated hunters.
A Little Tomorrowland Memory
I have to share this with you, because Buzz Lightyear to Star Command holds a very warm place in my Disney parks heart. I remember visiting Walt Disney World years ago - before I ever owned a single Topps Disney card - and playing that Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin attraction in Magic Kingdom over and over, convinced I was going to beat my personal high score every single time. There is something about that attraction that captures pure childhood joy. When I finally visited Disneyland and rode Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters in Tomorrowland, it felt like reuniting with an old friend in a brand-new light - same spirit of adventure, same bright colors, same laser blasters, just wrapped in that unmistakable Disneyland magic. Holding this Rainbow Foil card brings a little of that feeling right back.
Every great adventure starts with a single step into the future - and some cards just have a way of reminding you that the magic you felt as a kid never really left.
The Full Timeline Subset - Celebrating 17 Milestones
Since Card #99 is part of the Timeline subset, it is worth knowing the full checklist of those 17 milestone cards, because set builders and park history fans are going to want every single one. The Timeline subset runs from card #83 through #99 and includes moments like Sleeping Beauty Castle Construction (#83), Mickey and Donald celebrating the Grand Opening (#84), Autopia Cars in the First Parade (#85), the debut of "it's a small world" after the World's Fair (#90), Space Mountain Shoots for the Stars (#94), Big Thunder's first wild ride (#95), The Land that Toons Built - Toontown (#96), the Temple of Mara opening to tourists (#97), New Tomorrowland (#98), and of course the closing milestone, Buzz Lightyear to Star Command (#99). Collecting the Rainbow Foil parallels for all 17 Timeline cards would make for a truly jaw-dropping run in your binder.
Collector Notes - Who Should Chase This Card?
This Rainbow Foil parallel is a great fit for a wide range of collectors. Set builders will want to complete the full Rainbow Foil parallel set across all 150 base cards, making Card #99 a key piece. Character collectors who love Buzz Lightyear will appreciate the Tomorrowland connection and the park-specific framing. Park fans who have ridden Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters at Disneyland will feel a deep personal pull toward this card. And parallel collectors chasing the rainbow tier for this specific card number will start here before working their way up through the numbered parallels. It is the most accessible entry point - and still a genuinely beautiful piece of park history foil magic.
Display and Storage Ideas
For storing your Rainbow Foil parallels from this set, I love using Ultra Pro Platinum Series Card Sleeves to keep the foil surface pristine and free from scratches - they are ultra-clear and acid-free, which is exactly what you want for any foil card you plan to hold long-term. When it comes to organizing your full Timeline subset run or your growing Disneyland 70th collection, an Ultra Pro Card Storage Box is a wonderful solution - you can sort by subset, keep your Rainbow Foils separated from numbered parallels, and everything stays organized and protected in one place. I also love pairing this card display with my vintage Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom spell cards as a reminder of how Disney collectible card magic has always been a part of my world.
If you are using the Collectiblz app to track your checklist, do not forget to mark this one as Have once it lands in your collection - there is nothing quite like watching that completion percentage climb!
Happy collecting, and may every pack you open bring a little Tomorrowland sparkle your way. To infinity - and beyond the binder! 🎴 ✨ 🏰
