2026 Wild Card Summer Splat: Beach Cards, Night Game and Gold Vinyl

2026 Wild Card Summer Splat brings beach imagery and bright paint effects into the same collection. Billy Carlson’s official base preview uses a purple splash around the throwing pose, while Carl Yastrzemski’s Summer Splash card adds a wave, beach ball, palm trees and a sunburst behind the batting image.

Wild Card lists the collection in June 2026. Its six principal families are Base, Summer Splash, Night Game, Splat Bomb, Starry Break and Gold Vinyl.

Numbered base cards

The Base family uses six color groups across an eight-foil ladder. On Rainbow foil, unsigned Orange is /10, Green /8, Purple /6, Pink /5, Blue /4 and Multicolor 1/1. Each color has four card variations within that structure. Autographed base cards are one-of-ones.

The Carlson and Yastrzemski previews show two different visual approaches: a concentrated paint burst around the player versus a fully illustrated coastal scene. Both leave a broad white signature area across the lower-middle portion.

Beach, Cove and Night Game

Summer Splash has Beach and Cove settings, each in 12 colorways on Rainbow foil. Every exact card is a one-of-one. Night Game revisits Beach and Cove in its own illustrated branch, also with 12 colorways on Rainbow foil and one-of-one numbering.

Those location-based families give Summer Splat its strongest seasonal identity. They put the athlete inside a complete summer environment, rather than limiting the theme to a small icon or border color.

Splat Bomb, Starry Break and Gold Vinyl

Splat Bomb has Dark and White finishes, each in six colorways on Rainbow foil. Starry Break adds six lettered variants, a–f. Each exact card in those two families is a one-of-one.

Gold Vinyl uses Gold Circles foil with etched Spot UV across two lettered designs. It supplies a more surface-driven chase alongside the painted portraits and beach scenes. The official checklist details those branches, with June timing in Wild Card’s 2026 release index.
