2026-27 Topps Royalty Premier League Soccer: The Complete Odds, Parallel, and Print Run Breakdown

2026-27 Topps Royalty Premier League released September 24, and Topps posted the odds sheet two days before. It's a simple sheet: one column, 177 lines, and no print runs. Topps' product page fills in the base ladder, and the one-of-one lines on the sheet do the rest. They point to 5,300 boxes behind the sheet's odds, and from there we can check every numbered tier, estimate the versions that Topps gives no run for, and see how much of each ladder actually made it into boxes.

The box

Royalty is one pack per box, 10 cards, with six autographs and two relics, according to Topps' launch page. On Topps.com it sold through a draw at $999.99 a box, limited to two per customer, and the box is marked hobby only. Topps' product page adds that every box has one base card and one parallel.

Since a box is a single pack, the sheet's odds are odds per box. Add them all up and they come to about 9.6 cards a box: the base card, about 0.9 of a base parallel, about 5.7 signed cards and about 1.9 relics. That's the 10-card box with six autographs and two relics, give or take how Topps rounds short odds like 1:3.

The checklist

Not counting parallels, Topps' checklist runs 431 cards across 26 subsets, and Topps tags 74 of them as rookies.

The base set is 100 cards, five from each of the 20 clubs, from Justin Kluivert at #1 to João Gomes at #100. Twenty-one are rookies, among them Max Dowman, Rio Ngumoha, Estêvão Willian, Chris Rigg and Reigan Heskey. Every base card is numbered to 60.

The autographs:

• Royalty Autographs, 50 cards, the biggest autograph set in the product. Current players, legends like Thierry Henry, Wayne Rooney, David Beckham and Alan Shearer, and 12 rookies.
• Crowned Champions, 24 Premier League winners pictured with the trophy, including three managers: Pep Guardiola, José Mourinho and Arsène Wenger.
• Bow to Greatness, 18 all-time Premier League greats, from Cantona and Bergkamp to Gerrard, Henry, Kane and De Bruyne. It only comes in two versions, Tyrian Purple /3 and Platinum 1/1.
• King for a Day, 15 cards built around big individual performances.
• Imperial Ink (13 cards) and Superior Signatures (11).
• Next in Line, 12 cards, all rookies.
• Crown Duals, six dual autographs: Agüero and De Bruyne, Rooney and Cantona, Bergkamp and Henry, Haaland and Shearer, Kane and Son, Scholes and Keane.
• 20 Autograph Edition, four Liverpool players from the 2024/25 title season: Andy Robertson, Luis Díaz, Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk.
• A Royal Miracle, Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez, for the 10th anniversary of Leicester City's 2015/16 title.
• Marks of Excellence, three Mohamed Salah cards, which Topps lists with the autographs.

The autograph relics are Royalty Relic Signatures (33 cards), Superior Relic Signatures (19), the Autograph Jumbo Relic Booklet (15), King for a Day Autograph Relic Edition (8), Rookie Jumbo Autograph Relics (5 rookies: Josh King, Max Dowman, Rio Ngumoha, Reggie Walsh and Tom Watson), Enthronement Debut Autograph Relics (4: Estêvão, Martín Zubimendi, Tijjani Reijnders and Viktor Gyökeres), 20 Autograph Relic Edition (Díaz and van Dijk), A Royal Miracle Autograph Relic Edition (Vardy and Mahrez) and Max's Match Ball Autographs, a single card of Max Dowman.

The relics are Relic Jewels (33), Regalia Relics (23), Premier League Elite Relics (20) and 20 Relic Edition (3: Díaz, Ryan Gravenberch and van Dijk). The one insert is Liquid Silver, five cards: Bukayo Saka, Salah, Erling Haaland, Ngumoha and Estêvão.

The base ladder

Topps' product page gives every print run here. Odds are per box:

Counting the base card, each player in the base set has 119 numbered cards: 60 base and 59 parallels.

The hit ladders

The hit sets use the same colors, with Copper and Gold added at the top. Topps' product page gives runs only for the base ladder, so the hit-set runs below are the base ladder's, and the small sets further down show the odds fit them from Royal Blue /25 to Platinum 1/1. Topps hasn't published anything for Copper and Gold. Our data lists them at /75 and /50, but the odds don't back that up in most sets, so the columns below show them without a run. "Base" is the set's own version with no parallel. Where a Platinum shows "x2", there are two different 1/1s per player, a Manufacturer Logo and a Club Logo, each at those odds.

The autographs, odds per box:

Marks of Excellence has its own short ladder: Purple at 1:177, Red at 1:354 and Black at 1:1,767, with no unnumbered version on the sheet. Topps gives no runs for these, but at 5,300 boxes the odds work out to 10, 5 and 1 copies of each card.

The autograph relics:

The relics:

Liquid Silver falls 1:56, and its Gold parallel 1:1,060.

The serial numbers on the cards we've seen fit the ladder: an Imperial Ink Zlatan Ibrahimović at 01/25, a Crowned Champions Pep Guardiola at 6/10 and an Erling Haaland autograph relic at 09/25.

How many boxes the sheet covers

Max's Match Ball Autographs is the key. It's one card, so each of its lines counts copies directly. The Platinum is 1:5,300, which is one copy in 5,300 boxes. The Tyrian Purple /3 is 1:1,767, and 5,300 divided by 3 is 1,766.7, rounded up. The Green /5 is 1:1,060, the Black /10 1:530 and the Red /15 1:354. Every tier lands on 5,300 boxes.

The Platinum line in every autograph and autograph relic set, and in 20 Relic Edition, says the same thing. Multiply the odds by the number of cards and you get the box count:

The spread from 5,300 to 5,313 is rounding, and on this sheet it only goes up. 5,300 divided by 33 is 160.6, which shows up as 1:161, but 5,300 divided by 6 is 883.3, and the Crown Duals Platinum shows up as 1:884, not 1:883. King for a Day, Bow to Greatness and the Autograph Jumbo Relic Booklet do the same. So the real odds are a touch better than printed, and any count worked back from the odds is a floor, most of all on short lines like 1:3.

So the sheet covers 5,300 boxes. At one pack and 10 cards a box, that's 5,300 packs and about 53,000 cards. Six autographs a box makes 31,800 signed cards, and two relics a box makes 10,600 relics. Adding up the sheet's odds gives about 30,400 and 10,100, close enough given the rounding on lines like 1:3.

The base set mostly lines up, with one gap. Every base card is numbered to 60, so there are 6,000 base cards, and every box has one. At 5,300 boxes, 5,300 of them are in boxes, about 53 of each card on average, which leaves about 700 numbered base cards the sheet doesn't account for.

Not every numbered card is in a box

At 5,300 boxes, the small sets come out to exactly their print runs. A Royal Miracle autographs, two cards, put 50 Royal Blues, 30 Reds, 20 Blacks, 10 Greens, 6 Tyrian Purples and 2 Platinums in boxes, which is every copy of every tier. Max's Match Ball puts all 34 of its cards in boxes, Marks of Excellence all 30 Purples, 15 Reds and 3 Blacks, and Rookie Jumbo Autograph Relics everything from the Black /10 down. That backs up the runs from Royal Blue /25 to Platinum 1/1.

The bigger the set and the bigger the run, the more the odds come up short. Across all the hit sets, here's what the odds put in boxes against what the runs would make if every player had every tier at the full number. Since Topps rounds up, each count is a range, and the low end is what the printed odds give exactly:

Topps' note on the sheet says a player being on the checklist doesn't guarantee they appear in every parallel, which would explain a lot of this. The only Platinums that miss are in three of the relic sets, and each comes up exactly one card short: 22 of 23 Regalia Relics Platinums, 19 of 20 for each Premier League Elite Relics Platinum, and 32 of 33 for each Relic Jewels Platinum.

Gold and Copper are the soft spots. At 5,300 boxes, the Gold lines work out to at least 27 to 40 copies of each card in most sets, and the Copper lines to at least 35 to 58. Only two lines are loose enough to fit the runs in our data: Royalty Autographs Gold (1:3) could be a full 50 and Regalia Relics Copper (1:4) a full 75. Everywhere else the odds come up short even after rounding. Until Topps prints those runs, or serial numbers turn up, treat Gold /50 and Copper /75 as unconfirmed.

Relic Jewels Gold looks off. It's listed at 1:10, longer than the Relic Jewels Royal Blue /25 at 1:9. That works out to about 16 Golds per card in boxes, fewer than the roughly 18 Royal Blues. Either the sheet has a slip or the Relic Jewels Gold is printed much shorter than 50.

The top of the base ladder comes up short. The base card is one per box, so 5,300 of the 6,000 are in boxes. Because Topps rounds its odds up, the parallel lines each give a range: Red (1:4) and Black (1:6) fit anything from 88 percent of their runs to all of them, and Royal Blue (1:3) anything from about 1,767 to all 2,500, since a full 2,500 would print as 1:3 too (5,300 divided by 2,500 is 2.1, rounded up). Green, Tyrian Purple and Platinum can't be full even after rounding: about 442 to 481 of the 500 Greens, 279 to 294 of the 300 Tyrian Purples, and 95 or 96 of the 100 Platinums.

The base versions

Topps gives no print run for the base version of any hit set. One of Topps' own preview cards, an Eden Hazard Superior Signatures base version, is numbered 01/99, but at 1:10 the odds put only about 48 to 53 of each Superior Signatures card in boxes, about half of a /99. Using 5,300 boxes, here's about how many of each card are in boxes:

A few of these are scarcer than numbered tiers in their own set. The Relic Jewels base version is 1:19, the same as its Black /10. The 20 Autograph Edition base version, at 1:144, is longer than that set's Red /15 (1:121) and Black /10 (1:136). Crown Duals' base, at 1:54, sits between its Royal Blue /25 and Red /15.

These are estimates, and because Topps rounds its odds up, they're the low end. The short lines are the loosest: 1:3 covers anything from just over 1:2 to 1:3, so Royalty Autographs could run about 35 to 53 per card and Crowned Champions about 74 to 110.

Topps gives no run for the Copper and Gold lines either, and at 5,300 boxes they work out the same way, again as the low end:

Seven sets have no base version on the sheet at all: Bow to Greatness, A Royal Miracle, Marks of Excellence, the Autograph Jumbo Relic Booklet, Enthronement Debut Autograph Relics, A Royal Miracle Autograph Relic Edition and Max's Match Ball Autographs.

The rarest pulls

The toughest line on the sheet is the Max's Match Ball Autographs Platinum at 1:5,300 boxes, one copy on the whole sheet. The set is one card, Max Dowman's, and every copy is numbered: 15 Red, 10 Black, 5 Green, 3 Tyrian Purple and the Platinum, 34 in all.

Next, at 1:2,650 boxes, are the two-card sets: the A Royal Miracle autograph and autograph relic Platinums (Vardy and Mahrez) and the 20 Autograph Relic Edition Platinums (Díaz and van Dijk, each in a Manufacturer Logo and a Club Logo version). Then 1:1,767: the three Marks of Excellence Black 1/1s of Salah, the 20 Relic Edition Platinums and the Max's Match Ball Tyrian Purple.

Bow to Greatness skips the bottom of the ladder entirely. Its 18 legends come only as Tyrian Purple /3 and Platinum 1/1, 72 cards in all. The odds put about 41 of the 54 Tyrian Purples and all 18 Platinums in boxes, about one Bow to Greatness every 90 boxes.

Across the product there are 31 one-of-one lines, counting each Platinum logo version, the base Platinum, the Marks of Excellence Black and the Liquid Silver Gold parallel, which the odds put at one copy per card. Together the odds put about 484 of them in boxes, about one every 11 boxes.

What to watch

The things we're watching: Topps publishing runs for the Copper and Gold tiers, serial numbers on the base versions of the hit sets, and whether the Relic Jewels Gold really falls 1:10. 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 2026-27 Topps Royalty Premier League Soccer release page, and you can track what you pull in HobbyMonitor Collections.
