no on-card auto in the preview. doesn't look good to me

Huge downgrade if there aren't on cards in this like last year.

What's the point of this set if they don't have on card autos this year?

Not to mention it looks awful this year.

It feels like Fanatics has a ton of no name sticker autos that they need to dump. See: Triumphant, Chrome, now this. Graphite on cards were underrated last year, IMO. Too bad that's gone.

We went from never having tennis cards to having way too many sets.

Bob Ross · 03-03-2026, 11:33 PM

Do we have an early look at 2026 Chrome w on card autos?

ricebellypanda · 03-04-2026, 08:30 AM

That looks pretty good

I'd assume Royalty again this year?

YayNJ · 03-04-2026, 08:40 AM

zero effort gone into the card design, looks like late 90's clipart

look at the utter state of this.

I sure hope so on Royalty. And yes, that Topps Chrome on card she posted is promising for 2026. I mean, they probably already have 2026 Chrome cards made if they're doing on card autos. Assuming it takes forever to get some people to sign based on timing, their schedules, location, etc. But man, on cards would really make 2026 special.

Right. Graphite looks awful based on these previews.

Also get to see the pen they use as many always ask what they should use for IP -autos. Stabilo it is I guess lol

Jagsfansunshine · 03-04-2026, 08:21 PM

Skipping graphite again.

All-in on 2026 topps chrome.

Jagsfansunshine · 03-04-2026, 08:27 PM

Are they skipping sapphire this year?

Someone at Topps found the text emboss filter! Stop hiring web designers to do print work.
