Collector's Corner: A Guide To Calvin Heimburg's Memorable Discs

As of Febuary 2024 Calvin Heimburg is the top rated player in the world and won 2023 player of the year. He had one of the most elite seasons in DPGT history with 3 wins, 14 podium finishes, 22 top tens, and only finished outside the top 10 once all year. Although he had an elite season he is still missing a major or world title win. The future is bright for the #1 rated player in the world, and we believe he will have multiple major and/or world title wins in the future (hopefully). Calvin is a fan favorite for his skill on the course as well as his personality on the camera. For all those fans looking to add to their Calvin collection we hope this article helps you find a complete guide to what you should be on the look out for. We are highlighting what we believe are Calvin's most collectible & valuable discs and why!

 

 

A Players first appearance on collectibles is always one of the most sought after, and this is Calvin's. It's a great Innova mold, nice stamp, lower pre-covid quantity, and easily one of the top picks for every Calvin collector. Recently a couple have sold for $55-65, and there is only one listing online for $81. This one is a must have for die-hard collectors.

 

This gem commemorates Calvin's first win on tour. These have everything going for them: low quantity made, limited edition plastic, great mold that he still throws, and stamp history with his win. This is another one on the top of the list of Calvin collectibles. We have only seen one sell recently for $55 new, and only one is listed online that is used for $53. We believe these are have plenty of room to grow with everything going for them. 

 

 

 Here we have a great disc commemorating Calvin's PDGA NT Points Champion. It is also Calvin's first time being on a Millennium disc, and the first of many on the draco; a disc which he definitely put on the map as a go-to for players. We would assume there are very low quantity of these in the wild, and if you want one for the collection then buy them when they become available. Currently one a pair are listed online for $150, and only one has sold recently for $51.

 

 2019 Innova Tour Series Swirly Star Destroyer

 

 Calvin got promoted to the Innova star team, and gets his first tour series disc with the best distance driver in the world. The pop top version of these are held in high regards with throwers. This is the first of many destroyers for Calvin, and puts him in good company with other people that have TS destroyers. Recently 3 have sold in the $75-90 range, and only 3 are listed for $70-75 but aren't great colors. There is also a bottom stamp commemoratives version that pulls an even higher premium, but good luck finding any.

 

 2020 Innova Tour Series Swirl Star Destroyer

 

 So one would think that the second year of swirly star destroyer would be less valuable than the first right? Not Quite! This run of destroyer is regarded as one of the best runs of destroyer ever with the pop tops said to be some of the farthest flying. This one goes on the Destroyer Mount Rushmore. The 2020 run everything going for it as a collectible; sick stamp that is better than 2019, coveted as top-tier destroyer thrower, limited run swirly plastic, pre-covid quantity released, and is a must have for any Calvin collector. Currently a handful are listed online in the $70-85 range with one at $50, and a few have sold recently in the $50-80 range.

2021 Innova Tour Series Halo Star Destroyer

These are the first year Innova made halo destroyers with this one the first Tour Series. They are absolutely beautiful, fly great, and are an excellent disc for the collector not looking to break the bank. The only knock on these is that they made a lot of them, since its the first TS after the covid player boom. You can pick these up easily in the $35-50 range depending on color. Pick one up for the collection or to throw it you don't have one. 

Innova Gummy Rhyno, Star Eagle, & Star Firebird

These are all limited edition low quantity made in tribute to his famous putting mantra "Put the Pizza in the Oven". These are highly sought after but the Gummy Rhyno stands above the other for being a more desirable mold. These combine low quantity and capture the humorous side of Calvin to make them one of his most sought after collectibles. Recently 3 have sold in the $70-120 range depending on mold and stamp, only a few listed online in the $90-120 range plus a few more listed to the moon. If you can find them & afford them then buy one for the collection this one is Iconic.

This may be the best stamp on any disc ever! It is also held in high regards for being one of the best overstable fairway drivers on the market, with this run being especially beefy. Combine beautiful disc, high demand thrower, low quantity and we get one of the best additions to the Calvin Collection. Recently a few have sold in the $45-60 range, and only 3 are listed online for $55 each. 

 

For a long time Innova was missing the reliable overstable approach akin to the zone, but they hit it out of the ballpark with these. These are great for all Calvin fans whether you want to put it on the wall or throw it on the course. They look stunning, great for glow, a must have thrower for the bag, and won't break the bank. Several have sold recently in the $30-40 range, and you can find them easily in the $32-40 range.

 

 These made the list because Innova seems to be making a trend of releasing limited edition Calvin & Sexton disc for the Las Vegas Challenge. These are produced in very low quantity and always in special release plastic. Currently listed anywhere from $50-120, and only a couple recently sold between $30-60. Buy these if your looking to add to the wall, but its probably safe to wait a year or so to see where they settle in price.

 

If you have watched Calvin on coverage then you have seen him carve up wooded or open courses with these Innova Champion Eagles that are Flatter & Opaque. With these both beloved by throwers & collectors they are a must have for the collection. They are tough to find, but can be found online in the $50-100 range. These are usually listed a bought very quick.
