2026 Leaf Metal Independence Day is a multi-sport release that only offers autographs. The release is themed around the US national holiday as well as the 250th anniversary celebrations. Cards feature designs such as Fireworks, the Liberty Bell, and the Statue of Liberty. The set draws from several different sports and the entertainment world, but as should be expected from this release the main sports are baseball, football, and basketball. In addition to standard hobby boxes, there are Founding Father boxes, which include Founding Father themed cards, as well as presidential cut signatures. These Founding Father boxes offer 1 Founding Father auto, as well as 3 other autos. Standard boxes offer 3 autos each. A full breakdown of the release will be available at Breakninja.com.

Matt’s Opinion: Well…as a Canadian I can’t say that this is a set that I love. The design is nice, and there are some great names to chase, but the collectors in the US will be amazed by it and will surely chase it.
