2026 Futera World Football FX Series 3: A 200-Card Portrait Set and Messi–Yamal Ink

2026 Futera World Football FX Series 3 builds its base collection around 200 portrait cards, divided into goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, forwards, Next players and The Greats. Its on-card autograph program reaches Lionel Messi, Lamine Yamal, Kaká, Luís Figo, Rivaldo, Nico O’Reilly and Wayne Rooney, among others.

The collection belongs to Futera’s 2026 release program. Each hobby box contains ten foil packs with up to five cards per pack, plus a stated selection of numbered parallels, inserts and a special card.

The box and base checklist

The hobby configuration includes two foil-numbered parallels, one foil-numbered insert and an additional special card. That special card can be an on-card autograph, game or training memorabilia, or a low-numbered special FX insert.

The portrait base set contains ten goalkeepers, fifty defenders, fifty midfielders, fifty forwards, ten Next players and thirty Greats. The Next group opens with Tom Bischof, Antonio Nusa and Estêvão; The Greats begins with Gareth Bale, Franz Beckenbauer and George Best.

A separate 100-card Landscape set shares the base parallel ladder: Green /29, Blue /15, Pink /6, Red /3 and Diamond 1/1, alongside unnumbered Gold cards.

Regular and special inserts

Revered, Superstars, Powerplay and Apex each have 32 cards, with versions numbered to 26, 19, nine, five, three and one. The special-insert groups Masters, Gamechanger and Maestro each have 42 cards, with a lower sequence of six, five, three, two and one.

Hometime is the 100-card case-hit set, celebrating players’ home countries with cards numbered to five. Messi, Enzo Fernández and Lautaro Martínez lead that checklist’s Argentina entries.

Memorabilia combinations and on-card signatures

The memorabilia families include Playmaker, Striker, Victory, Supreme, Captains and Masters, plus dual-player Versus and Showdown cards. Versus pairs Rodri with Vitinha and Achraf Hakimi with Trent Alexander-Arnold; Showdown includes Paul Gascoigne with Rayan Cherki and Best with Eden Hazard. Their parallels run to nine, five, two and one.

On-card signatures are divided among Modern, Superstars, Prominent, Maestro and Unique 1 of 1 Auto. Available autograph parallel colors vary by player. Signed card backs give the signing date and location, while memorabilia backs identify the enclosed game or training material.

The standard cyan packaging has Red, Gold and Diamond box variations, limited to three, two and one respectively. Series 3’s deeper attraction is the checklist’s breadth: Next players such as Estêvão sit alongside The Greats, while the autograph and dual-memorabilia lists create specific connections between football generations.
