2025-26 Topps Museum Collection UEFA Club Competitions: The Complete Odds, Parallel, and Print Run Breakdown

2025-26 Topps Museum Collection UEFA Club Competitions released September 18, and Topps posted the odds sheet and the checklist the day before. The sheet runs 147 lines in two columns, Hobby and Hat-Trick, with odds per pack and no print runs. It still pins the run down. Three one-card books each have an Emerald parallel listed in hobby only at 1:28,200, which puts the hobby run at 28,200 boxes, and the one-of-ones that split between the two columns put the Hat-Trick run at 8,088 packs. From there we can check every ladder, count the cards with no serial number, and find the lines that don't add up, including two sets the sheet seems to count one card bigger than Topps' checklist does.

The box

Topps' product page lists one pack per box and eight cards per pack, with one sequentially numbered base card parallel, one autograph, one relic and one autograph relic in every hobby box. The sheet's base line is 4:1, four base cards a box, which makes eight. Topps' page lists no case configuration.

With one pack per box, every hobby figure on the sheet is also odds per box. The hits match Topps' page: the hobby lines add up to 0.96 autographs, 1.02 relics and 0.99 autograph relics a box. The base parallels don't. Topps promises one a box, and the sheet's nine base parallel lines add up to about 1.89: Gold and Sapphire, at 1:2 each, make one a box between them, and Amethyst through Emerald add about 0.89 more. With the Museum Roll of Honor and The Grail (about 0.10 a box), the hobby column comes to about 8.95 cards, one more than Topps' eight, and since the sheet rounds its odds up (more on that below), the real rates can only be higher. Some boxes may carry a second numbered parallel in place of a base card, or the 4:1 base line may be high; Topps hasn't said.

The second column is Hat-Trick, a configuration Topps' page doesn't describe. Topps' checklist marks three sets as exclusive to it: Museum Marbleized Autographs, Hat-Trick Triple Autographs and Hat-Trick Autograph Relics. The Hat-Trick column has no base cards, no Roll of Honor and no Grail, and its lines add up to 0.99 autographs, 0.98 relics and 0.96 autograph relics a pack, the same three hits as a hobby box. Topps doesn't say how many Hat-Trick packs make a box, so the Hat-Trick figures here stay per pack.

What each slot holds, adding up every version of each set on the sheet. A Roll of Honor of any color is about one box in 10; the single-line relic and autograph relic sets, the three books and The Grail are listed with their odds under The cards with no print run:

In a hobby box the autograph is an Archival Autograph about three times in five, and the relic and the autograph relic are a Meaningful Material Single Relic and a Museum Autograph Relic about three times in four. In a Hat-Trick pack the autograph is an Archival Autograph or a Museum Marbleized Autograph about two times in three.

The checklist

Not counting parallels, Topps' checklist runs 686 cards across 35 sets: 100 base cards, six insert cards, 215 autographs in 10 sets, 161 relics in 11 sets and 204 autograph relics in 11 sets. Topps' page dates Museum's UEFA run to 2017/18 and calls the Museum Roll of Honor, both Curated Collars sets and the Museum Nameplate Relics new this year.

The base set runs from Ousmane Dembélé at #1 to William Saliba at #100, and Topps tags 26 cards as rookies, among them Max Dowman, Rio Ngumoha, Estêvão Willian and Franco Mastantuono. Legends are mixed in, among them Zinédine Zidane, Lionel Messi, Ronaldo and Diego Maradona.

The inserts are the Museum Roll of Honor, five cards (Maradona, Messi, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo and Zidane), and The Grail, a single card, G-2, Zlatan Ibrahimović, listed with Juventus. Topps' checklist marks both, and the base set, as hobby only.

The autographs:

• Archival Autographs, 59 current players, 11 of them rookies, the biggest autograph set.
• Museum Marbleized Autographs, 36, Hat-Trick only, from Del Piero and Dennis Bergkamp to Erling Haaland and Lamine Yamal.
• Museum Framed Autographs, 26.
• Showpiece Signatures, 25, among them Andrés Iniesta, Francesco Totti, Paolo Maldini and Messi.
• Legendary Ink Framed Autographs, 18.
• Museum Rookie Autographs, 12 rookies.
• Marks of Excellence, nine, from Cafu and Andriy Shevchenko to Phil Foden and Arda Güler. Topps lists it with the autographs.
• Archival Dual Autographs, 15 pairs, three of them Messi's: with Neymar Jr, with Ronaldinho and with Zlatan.
• Hat-Trick Triple Autographs, 14 trios, Hat-Trick only, among them Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar Jr.
• Supreme Script Legendary Autographed Book, one card with ten signatures, among them Messi, Ronaldo, Zidane and Wayne Rooney.

The relics are Meaningful Material Single Relics (34), Legacy Boot Relics (32), Momentous Material Jumbo Relics (16), Single Player Swatches Dual Relics (14), Single Player Triple Relics (14), Curated Collars Relics (12), Museum Nameplate Relics (12), Museum Rookie Relics (11 rookies), UEFA Foundation Patch Cards (10), Home/Away Dual Relics (five) and the Supreme Materials Relic Book, one card with ten current players, among them Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Lamine Yamal.

The autograph relics are Museum Autograph Relics (71, the biggest hit set in the product), Momentous Material Jumbo Autographs (33), Legacy Laces Autograph Relics (29), Curated Collars Autograph Relics (18), Single Player Signature Swatches Dual Relic Autographs (18), Museum Framed Autograph Patch Cards (14), Museum Rookie Autograph Relics (seven rookies), Hat-Trick Autograph Relics (seven, Hat-Trick only), Home/Away Dual Relic Autographs (four), the Kit Construction Triple Relic Autograph Book (two: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Haaland) and the Supreme Script Legendary Autographed Relic Book, one card with ten signatures, among them Messi, Zidane, Xavi and Steven Gerrard.

Counting each signer on the multi-signed cards, 171 different people sign. Messi signs 15 cards, the most, then Zidane (13), Ronaldo (12), Ronaldinho (11) and Henry (10).

The base ladder

Odds per hobby box. Topps prints no runs on the sheet; the runs below are the numbered runs for each tier:

If every copy were in a box, run times cards times odds would land at or just above the box count. From Sapphire down it comes to 29,400 to 30,000 against 28,200 boxes (worked out below), so at least 94 percent of each tier is in boxes. The long lines pin it: 96 of the 100 Emeralds, 478 to 486 of the 500 Diamonds and 940 to 972 of the 1,000 Black Diamonds. Because the sheet rounds up, the short lines leave more room: the Blue Topaz at 1:12 could be anywhere from 2,350 to all 2,500, and the 1:2 to 1:6 lines can't rule out a full run. The Gold is loosest of all. A full /249 works out to one every 1.13 boxes, which would still print as 1:2, the same as the Sapphire, so the sheet can't confirm the /249 or rule it out.

The Museum Roll of Honor runs the same colors without the Ruby, and the sheet has no plain version, so every Roll of Honor card is numbered:

Here the Gold fits its /249, with about 1,175 to 1,226 of the 1,245 in boxes. All five Emeralds are in boxes, and the Diamond comes to 22 of 25. Across the colors, the odds put about 556 of each card in boxes, 2,780 in all. The Maradona below is a Blue Topaz numbered 01/25.

The Grail has one line, 1:576, which comes to 49 copies of the Zlatan card, all in hobby boxes.

The autographs

Hobby odds per box, with each tier's print run. "Base" is the set's own version with no color:

Museum Rookie Autographs also has a Hat-Trick parallel at 1:1,008, with no print run given. The book's Emerald is hobby only.

Per Hat-Trick pack, most lines on the sheet run about 15 percent longer than per hobby box (the Archival Autographs Black Diamond is 1:85 against 1:74), which leaves about 80 percent of each in hobby. The exceptions lean hard. The Archival Autographs base version and Sapphire are 1:49 and 1:27 per Hat-Trick pack against 1:6 and 1:9 per hobby box, Showpiece Signatures 1:121 against 1:37, and the Museum Framed Autographs base version and Ruby 1:119 and 1:111 against 1:32 and 1:33, so hobby holds more than 90 percent of each. The Museum Rookie Autographs Sapphire runs the other way, 1:21 per Hat-Trick pack against 1:31 per hobby box.

The two Hat-Trick exclusives, odds per Hat-Trick pack:

Marks of Excellence has its own ladder, with no plain version on the sheet:

Its odds are out of order in both columns. In hobby the Gold /50 (1:291) is rarer than the Orange /25 (1:235). In Hat-Trick the Gold is the most common color, at 1:34, and the Red /5 (1:289) is more common than the Purple /10 (1:450). Added up, Hat-Trick packs hold about 71 percent of the Golds and 64 percent of the Reds.

The Zlatan Ibrahimović below is a Showpiece Signatures numbered 01/10. The sheet has a single Showpiece line, with no colors, and it comes to about 33 or 34 of each of the 25 cards, so that one line has to cover more than a /10's worth per player.

The relics

Meaningful Material Single Relics has the full ladder, and it's the relic in about three hobby boxes in four:

The Blue Topaz is the odd line: 1:17 per Hat-Trick pack against 1:83 per hobby box, which puts about 58 percent of that tier in Hat-Trick packs.

The other relic ladders, hobby odds per box:

Momentous Material Jumbo Relics has no plain version on the sheet; its ladder starts at Amethyst. Four relic sets have a single line: Legacy Boot Relics at 1:232, Museum Nameplate Relics at 1:478, Curated Collars Relics at 1:2,820 and UEFA Foundation Patch Cards at 1:3,525. The book's Emerald is hobby only.

The autograph relics

Museum Autograph Relics is the autograph relic in about three hobby boxes in four, and it has the full ladder:

The other autograph relic ladders, hobby odds per box:

Hat-Trick Autograph Relics, the Hat-Trick exclusive, runs base 1:42, Blue Topaz /25 1:66, Black Diamond /10 1:118 and Emerald 1/1 1:1,156 per Hat-Trick pack. Four sets have a single line: Legacy Laces Autograph Relics at 1:1,282, Curated Collars Autograph Relics at 1:2,015, Museum Framed Autograph Patch Cards at 1:2,564 and the Kit Construction Triple Relic Autograph Book at 1:14,100, hobby only. The Messi at the top of this piece is a Legacy Laces numbered 1/1.

How many boxes the sheet covers

Four lines count copies directly. The Supreme Script Legendary Autographed Book, the Supreme Materials Relic Book and the Supreme Script Legendary Autographed Relic Book are each a single card, and each one's Emerald is listed in hobby only, at 1:28,200: one copy in 28,200 boxes. The Roll of Honor Emerald, five cards at 1:5,640, says the same.

So the hobby run is 28,200 boxes, one pack each: about 225,600 cards at Topps' eight a pack, and about 28,200 of each kind of hit. The two Kit Construction books, at 1:14,100, come to one copy each.

This sheet rounds up. The Archival Autographs Emerald at 1:614 comes to 45.9 copies in 28,200 boxes, and copies come whole: 46 copies works out to 1:613.04, which only prints as 1:614 if the sheet rounds up. The Meaningful Material Single Relics Emerald (28 copies, 1:1,007.1, printed 1:1,008) and the Legendary Ink Framed Autographs Emerald (14, 1:2,014.3, printed 1:2,015) do the same. So the real odds are at least as good as printed, and every count worked back from the odds is a floor: tight on long lines, loose on short ones, where a printed 1:2 means anything from just over 1:1 to 1:2.

The Hat-Trick column works out through the Emerald lines that run in both columns. Take hobby's share of each set out at 28,200 boxes, and the six shared lines leave exactly 8,088 packs for Hat-Trick. The two Hat-Trick-only Emeralds come to 8,092, and 8,088 packs rounds up to their printed odds (8,088 / 14 = 577.7, printed 1:578; 8,088 / 7 = 1,155.4, printed 1:1,156):

So the Hat-Trick run is 8,088 packs, about 29 for every 100 hobby boxes and about 24,300 hits at three a pack. Across both formats that's about 36,300 autographs, 36,300 relics and 36,300 autograph relics.

Not every numbered card is in a pack

At 28,200 hobby boxes and 8,088 Hat-Trick packs, the Emeralds are nearly full, and the bigger the run, the more the odds come up short. Across the autograph, relic and autograph relic sets, here's what the odds put in packs against what the print runs would make if every card had every tier:

Topps' note at the top of the sheet says a player on the checklist isn't guaranteed to appear in every parallel, which would explain a lot of this. Some sets come up much shorter than others:

• Archival Autographs. The Sapphire /150 comes to about 58 to 65 copies per signer, 39 to 43 percent of the run, and the Amethyst, Ruby, Citrine and Turquoise to 55 to 75 percent. From Blue Topaz down it's 77 percent or better, and 58 of the 59 Emeralds.
• Museum Autograph Relics Gold doesn't fit a /249. At 1:9 in hobby it's rarer than the Pink Sapphire /199 (1:7) and the Sapphire /150 (1:8): about 56 to 62 Golds per card in packs, against 69 to 80 Pink Sapphires and 62 to 71 Sapphires. A /249 shouldn't be rarer than a /150, so either the Gold line is off or the Gold isn't a /249 on this set.
• Marks of Excellence Green and Gold. The Orange, Purple, Red and Black fill 98 to 100 percent of their runs. The Green comes to about 198 cards, 22 percent of a /99 across nine cards and exactly two cards' worth, and the Gold to about 335 to 342, three quarters of a /50 on nine.
• Home/Away Dual Relic Autographs. The Emerald fills all four cards, but the Blue Topaz comes to 49 and the Black Diamond to 20, half of what /25 and /10 make on four cards, as if two of the four players skip those tiers.
• Others. The Museum Framed Autographs Ruby comes to 48 to 49 percent, the Museum Marbleized Autographs Turquoise (at the same 1:10 as that set's plain version) to 45 to 50 percent, and the Single Player Triple Relics Turquoise and Blue Topaz to 68 percent each.

Two sets go the other way, with more cards in packs than Topps' checklist allows.

Museum Rookie Autograph Relics: the sheet counts eight cards. Topps' checklist lists seven. The Emerald lines put eight one-of-ones in packs (six in hobby at 1:4,700, two in Hat-Trick at 1:4,044), and the Turquoise and Blue Topaz come to about 388 and 194, more than seven cards can make at /50 and /25 (350 and 175). On eight cards every tier fits: 97 percent of the Turquoise and the Blue Topaz, 89 percent of the Black Diamond and all eight Emeralds. Every tier running over a seven-card set is what a wrong card count looks like: either Topps' checklist is missing a card, or the sheet was built for one that didn't make it.

Meaningful Material Single Relics: 35, not 34. The Emerald comes to 35 one-of-ones (28 in hobby at 1:1,008, seven in Hat-Trick at 1:1,156), and the Black Diamond to about 342 to 346, more than 34 cards can make at /10 (340). On 35 cards the Emerald fills and the Black Diamond is 98 percent. It's one card, a smaller signal than the rookie autograph relics, but both top tiers need a 35th.

The cards with no print run

Copies of each card across both formats, at 28,200 hobby boxes and 8,088 Hat-Trick packs. Since the sheet rounds up, these are the low end, and the short lines leave a range:

The base set's 4:1 line comes to 112,800 base cards in hobby boxes, 1,128 of each, if every box has four. If the extra numbered parallels covered under The box take a base card's place, eight cards a box leaves about three base cards once every other line is counted, about 860 of each.

The first six sets in the table come to one copy of each card (the Legacy Laces one card short). The sheet gives them no run, but the Messi Legacy Laces at the top of this piece is numbered 1/1, so these work out to one-of-ones.

A few others land near familiar runs: the Legendary Ink Framed Autographs at 25 of each card, the Archival Dual Autographs at about 15 and the Museum Rookie Autographs Hat-Trick parallel at about three, which would fit a /3. Neither the sheet nor Topps' checklist says which carry serial numbers, and the 01/10 Zlatan Showpiece shows at least one single-line set covering numbered cards. The Museum Nameplate Relics come to about six per player, and Topps' page describes putting a player's name together from all of his Nameplate Relic cards, so those six are probably different cards, not six copies of one.

The Museum Rookie Autographs base version is about 90 percent hobby (1:16 per box against 1:43 per Hat-Trick pack), and the Museum Autograph Relics base version only about two thirds (1:14 against 1:8).

The rarest pulls

The toughest lines on the sheet are the three book Emeralds at 1:28,200, one copy each, all in hobby. With the versions with no color (four in hobby at 1:7,050 and one in Hat-Trick at 1:8,088), there are six of each book in packs. Next come the two Kit Construction books, Aubameyang and Haaland, at 1:14,100, one of each and hobby only, then the Home/Away Dual Relic Autographs Emerald, four cards at 1:9,400 per hobby box and 1:8,088 per Hat-Trick pack. In a Hat-Trick pack nothing is tougher than 1:8,088, shared by the three books and both Home/Away Emeralds.

Counting every Emerald, the Marks of Excellence Black and the six sets that come to one copy per card, the odds put about 608 one-of-ones in packs: 461 in hobby, about one every 61 boxes, and 147 in Hat-Trick, about one every 55 packs.

What to watch

We're watching for Topps' Hat-Trick box configuration, an eighth Museum Rookie Autograph Relic or a 35th Meaningful Material Single Relic, serial numbers on the short tiers called out above and on base versions like Showpiece Signatures, and how many base cards and numbered parallels a hobby box really holds. We'll update this piece if any of that changes.

The full checklist and every parallel with its print run and odds are on the 2025-26 Topps Museum Collection UEFA Club Competitions release page, and you can track what you pull in HobbyMonitor Collections.
