2016 Topps Walking Dead Survival Box Trading Cards Checklist and Details
2016 Topps Walking Dead Survival Box trading cards don’t have any major elements that are entirely new for the show. However, there is a big change in that it’s the series’ first high-end set from either Topps or Cryptozoic. Done in a format that’s similar to Star Wars Masterwork and Topps Museum Collection, packs come as mini boxes. In each is either an autograph, memorabilia card or sketch card.
Base Set
The 2016 Topps Walking Dead Survival Box base set covers all six seasons of the show. Arriving shortly after Topps’ Season 5 set, these are the first cards to include the sixth. The base set has 50 cards plus another 25 short prints (#51-75) using different images of the show’s characters bringing the total number of cards to 75.
Parallels take a bit of a different approach from the standard colors found in most sets. Getting more visual and down to the show’s gruesome tone, they include Infected (/99), Rotten (/25), Maggots (/10) and Bone (1/1). The different can be found on the sides of the card with the flesh borders. Base cards also have Printing Plates.
Autographs and Relics
Based on the initial sales material, basic autographs come with on-card signatures. According to Topps, the checklist also includes some signers that weren’t in their Season 5 set. Parallels add more chase elements as do Dual and Triple Autographs. Multi-signed cards use stickers.
Danai Gurira (Michonne), Melissa McBride (Carol) and Norman Reedus (Daryl) are among the set’s signers. Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays Negan, was a late addition to the release. These are his first signed cards for The Walking Dead.
Relics have costume swatches from the show. These also have a variety of parallels and some cards with two swatches.
Sketch cards were originally announced for the set but were cancelled.
Inserts
Basic inserts fall one per mini box and come with three different themes: Walker Bite Cards, Survival Guide and Kill or Be Killed. These have the same levels of parallels minus Infected. Numbering for parallels is also the same.

I didn’t see an autograph (single) posted for Benedict Samuel as alpha wolf
Very cool that they got a Negan autograph in here. I wish that Andrew Lincoln had signed; the set seems somewhat incomplete without the chance for a Rick Grimes autograph, you know, the star of the whole show.
