Trading cards have made a roaring comeback in recent years – from Pokémon to the Premier League – and now Topps, the premier trading card brand of Fanatics Collectibles, has dropped their most ambitious release yet.
The Topps Premier League 2025/26 Hobby Box is billed as the ultimate upgrade for collectors looking for more than standard retail packs. Each box is guaranteed three autograph or relic cards – with at least one autograph inside – plus three exclusive Black Edge inserts, a bold design variation available only in Hobby.
Among the Hobby exclusives are Beast Mode Autographs, Relic Cards featuring swatches of player-worn shirts, and Black Edge Autographs in ultra-premium signed editions.
Collectors can also chase four sequentially numbered parallels, two Chrome King Legend inserts, and short-print Diamond Rookies, alongside the full 2026 Rookie Class headlined by Estêvão Willian, Josh King, and Rio Ngumoha.
Adding extra spice are the Case Hits – ultra-rare inserts found just once per case (sometimes even rarer). These include Chrome King Autographs of Premier League legends, Heat Vision cards inspired by player heatmaps, Home Advantage featuring stars with club city landmarks, and the lightning-charged Perfect Storm.
For collectors, it’s not just a box of cards – it’s a box of chances.
