2026 Topps Mars Attacks Christmas Checklist and Details
Jump to the 2026 Topps Mars Attacks Christmas Checklist
Those pesky invaders can’t seem to stay away, and this time, they’re interrupting the holiday season.
2026 Topps Mars Attacks Christmas is the latest installment in the decades-long science fiction series originally created by Topps in 1962. Topps commissioned all-new artwork for the release, which sees the cult classic Martians invading Earth to disrupt Santa Claus’ work.
Each box includes two numbered parallels and a greeting card box topper.
2026 Topps Mars Attacks Christmas Checklist Overview
The base checklist includes 50 scenes filled with holiday festivities — and Martians — that form a cohesive storyline. There will be a variety of parallels in different colors and patterns, several of which will be numbered. That includes Snowcaps (/5) and bordered versions with rounded corners.
The base set is extended with 25 special character cards. Parallels here include festive versions like Candy Cane (/299).
Autographs and Memorabilia
Part of this new holiday story involves heroic actions taken by athletes and celebrities during the invasion. Among autograph signers for Caught In The Crossfire are Mike Tyson, Dennis Rodman, and Jeff Goldblum.
Collectors will also look for Cryptids Alliance Facsimile Autographs, including a Christmas card-like appearance from Santa Claus.
Santa appears again in Invasion Worn Relics, which include manufactured relics that would have been worn by characters in the storyline. The materials were “recovered” from the battle.
Inserts
In another sports-related crossover, Mars Invasion Chrome inserts parody the 2022 Topps Cosmic Chrome Baseball Youth Invasion die-cut inserts.
Headlines! are mock-ups of newspaper front pages that capture the action.
Battle Ready inserts are stylized with the layout from a trading card game like Pokémon or Magic: The Gathering, furthering the crossover appeal of the product.
