I know absolutely nothing about copyright laws, but I think you are wrong and I think Topps loses their case.

It's a prize, there's not copyright infringement. They're not reproducing the card.

Didn't one of the companies insert money (I think it was $100 bills) into packs a few years ago? If I'm correct, then by your logic the card copy is guilty of counterfeiting.
