Everything we know about Topps UFC Royalty 2026 so far
There is no official UFC Royalty 2026 checklist yet. See the 13 November release date, the teaser cards shown so far and what the 2025 set says about the box.
There is no official UFC Royalty 2026 checklist yet. Topps lists 2026 Topps Royalty UFC for 13 November 2026. As of 22 October 2026 it has published no card list, fighter list, box configuration or price. What exists is nine teaser photos of autograph and relic cards, covered below. Octagon's data on the 2025 and 2024 Royalty sets shows what a Royalty box contains.
When is 2026 Topps Royalty UFC released?
The Topps product page says "Available November 13 2026" and promises that "Premium hits and Octagon icons return". Preorders opened on 12 October 2026. 13 November is an announced date, not confirmation that boxes have shipped, and retailers still list the hobby box with no release date.
The product year is not the release year. The 2025 set released in 2026, and the 2026 set follows it by about nine months.

Which cards has Topps shown so far?
The upcoming release page collects nine teaser photos. Two are social media captures, one from the r/ufccards community on Reddit and one from an Instagram story tagged @toppscombat. Topps has not confirmed any of them in a checklist, so serial numbers and set names below are only what is printed on the cards in the photos.
Diego Lopes and Paddy Pimblett
The Diego Lopes card reads "Royal Arms Relic Autograph" above a blue signature. A black and gold "Noche UFC" patch window sits between two blue lace-pattern panels. A foil-edged stack of cards sits behind it on the table.
The Paddy Pimblett card reads "Royal Heir Autographs", a set name that appears in neither the 2024 nor the 2025 Royalty checklist. It is a plain autograph card with a blue signature and no serial number visible.
Alexandre Pantoja
Alexandre Pantoja has the most teaser cards. Four are single cards, serialled 1/1, 1/1, 01/10 and 1/5.
The Superior Signatures card is serialled 1/1. Superior Signatures was also an autograph set in 2025, with 18 cards, and in 2024, with 34.
A second 1/1 has a black patch window with the UFC and Venum logos and the printed line "Authentic Product".
The 01/10 card has a grey UFC lettering patch and gold foil trim.
The 1/5 card has a gold lettering patch on black fabric and green trim. Those two serial numbers match the 2025 base ladder, where Gold is /10 and Green is /5, but Topps has not published the 2026 parallel names.
The booklet photo shows one signed Pantoja card and one gold and black letter patch per booklet. The letters A, N, T, O and J are fully visible, with a partly visible booklet at each end of the row. That fits one booklet for each letter of his surname.
Charles Oliveira, Alex Pereira and the signing table
The opening photo is a dual booklet pairing Charles Oliveira and Alex Pereira. Each page has a patch window, and only Pereira's page shows a signature. The last photo shows stacks of cards with patch windows on a dark table covered in signatures.
What are the five teased fighters' 2025 Royalty cards worth?
Octagon tracks all five. The table shows their weekly fighter index rank on 5 October 2026, out of 770 ranked fighters, and Octagon's estimates for their 2025 Royalty base cards as of 22 October 2026, built from sales through 20 October. Every 2025 base card is numbered /99, and the Platinum parallel is 1/1.
| Fighter | Index rank | 2025 base card | Base /99 estimate | Platinum 1/1 estimate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alex Pereira | 4 | #1 | $22.02 | $967.02 |
| Paddy Pimblett | 6 | #86 | $14.65 | $1,261.59 |
| Charles Oliveira | 17 | #73 | $19.94 | $899.27 |
| Diego Lopes | 30 | #28 | $13.40 | $584.74 |
| Alexandre Pantoja | 73 | #45 | $5.81 | $566.00 |
Autographs start higher. As of 22 October 2026, Octagon estimates Pimblett's 2025 Time Is Now Autographs card, numbered /25, at $374.99 from three sales. Octagon puts Pantoja's 2025 Regalia Relic Signatures card at $75.25 from one sale.
What will the 2026 box and parallels look like?
Topps has not said, so the last two Royalty boxes are the guide. Both were one pack of 10 cards per hobby box and four boxes per case. The 2025 box guaranteed 5 autograph cards and 3 relic cards, and the 2024 box guaranteed 5 autograph cards.
The 2025 base set is 100 cards, each numbered /99, with six parallels. Octagon's estimates for Pereira's card, as of 22 October 2026, reach $967.02 at Platinum, and Octagon puts Red below Blue.
| Parallel | Print run | Pereira #1 estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Base | /99 | $22.02 |
| Purple | /35 | $34.64 |
| Blue | /25 | $70.96 |
| Red | /15 | $45.64 |
| Gold | /10 | $80.07 |
| Green | /5 | $143.95 |
| Platinum | 1/1 | $967.02 |
Set names rotate. Of the 28 sets in Octagon's 2025 checklist, read on 22 October 2026, 19 had the same name in 2024, and nine were new. The two new names in the 2026 photos, Royal Heir Autographs and Royal Arms Relic Autograph, suggest the same pattern again.
How much will a 2026 Royalty hobby box cost?
Topps has not published a price. The 2024 box was $399.99. The 2025 box was $479.99 in presale from 22 December 2025 and $499.99 at release on 6 February 2026, 25 percent more than 2024.
