EVORETRO already covered Museum Framed Autograph Relics and Momentous Material Jumbo Patch Autographs as part of the broader 2026 hit checklist.
This guide zeroes in on two different, genuinely new hit types instead: Autographed Bat Relics and the upgraded Momentous Material Single-Player Primary Pieces Triple Relics.
Both push the product's memorabilia content further than any prior Museum Collection release, just in two distinct directions.
Here's what makes each one worth knowing before you're staring at one in hand, deciding what to do with it.
Both new hits reflect the same broader trend in ultra-premium products: giving collectors more physical, game-used content per card rather than just adding new insert names to an already crowded checklist.
Where past Museum Collection releases often paired a single relic piece with a signature, both of 2026's new hit types push well past that baseline in different ways.
Autographed Bat Relics pair a player's on-card signature with a piece of game-used lumber, a genuinely new category for the product rather than a variation on its existing jersey and equipment relics.
Bat relics carry their own visual identity on the card, distinct from the fabric swatches collectors are used to seeing, which makes this hit type stand out even before checking whose signature is attached.
Autographed Bat Relics are tracked at roughly one per four cases, putting them well outside what a single box or even a handful of boxes is likely to produce.
That scarcity places bat relics alongside the product's other top-tier hits rather than as a secondary or lesser new addition, and several early bat relic pulls have already turned up as true one-of-one cards.
Single-Player Primary Pieces Triple Relics combine three separate memorabilia pieces from the same player alongside an on-card signature, a real step up from the single or double-relic autographs Momentous Material has featured in past years.
Keeping every piece tied to one player, rather than spreading relics across multiple names, gives this card type a cleaner, more focused presentation than a generic multi-player relic card might offer.
Single-Player Primary Pieces Triple Relics are tracked at roughly one per four boxes, a noticeably more attainable rate than the Autographed Bat Relics' one-per-four-cases odds.
That gap in scarcity matters for anyone budgeting toward a specific hit type. A single box realistically has a shot at a Triple Relic in a way it simply doesn't for a bat relic.
Momentous Material Jumbo Patch Autographs, covered in EVORETRO's earlier hit guide, pair one oversized patch with a signature, a different structure than the three-piece format Triple Relics use.
Collectors chasing the biggest single memorabilia swatch should still prioritize the jumbo patch cards, while collectors drawn to variety across one player's game-used gear are better served by the new Triple Relics.
Introducing a genuinely new relic category and upgrading an existing insert's piece count in the same release year signals a broader push toward richer memorabilia content across the entire product, not an isolated one-off addition.
That pattern is worth watching going forward, since a product line that pushes further on physical content in one area tends to keep pushing in follow-up years rather than settling back to a simpler baseline.
Early case-break coverage of both new hit types has focused heavily on the memorabilia quality and centering of the game-used pieces, alongside how cleanly each signature sits alongside its relic window.
That early feedback matters for anyone deciding whether to prioritize a case break specifically for a shot at either new hit type over simply buying individual boxes.
Both new hit types carry thicker card stock than a standard base card, given the memorabilia and signature content built into each one, which matters when picking storage sized for the card's actual thickness.
Given how new both hit types are for 2026, submitting an early pull for grading also helps establish population data for the card while its scarcity is still being confirmed in real time. Once a slab comes back, an EVORETRO Magnetic Acrylic Display Case is a fitting way to actually show off a new hit type this rare.
A piece of game-used lumber, paired with an on-card autograph.
Three, all from the same player, alongside a signature.
Autographed Bat Relics, tracked at roughly one per four cases versus one per four boxes for Triple Relics.
No, Jumbo Patch Autographs use one oversized patch rather than three separate relic pieces.
A card this new deserves storage that fits its actual thickness, not a leftover base-card holder. A EVORETRO Toploader Storage Box keeps thick memorabilia cards secure until grading.
