Unlike some of the other series that’ve dropped in MLB The Show 26, there are no collections for those who get some of the premium rewards in the packs. However, the cards in the packs will be needed for the Cityscapes Collection.

Collection

Clay Buchholz

Jimmy Rollins

Mickey Mantle

To get all three cards, you’ll need 30 Cityscapes cards. Twelve (12) are needed for the Buchholz, 24 for Rollins, and 30 for Mantle.

So, where can you find all the Cityscapes cards? Let’s take a look:

• Chase: 1 (A. Chapman)
• Collection: 2 (Buchholz, Rollins)
• Conquest: 1 (Sexson)
• Diamond Quest: 2 (M. Young, Parker)
• Exchange: 1 (Yount)
• Mini Seasons: 4 (Franco, Kinsler, Edmonds, E. Martinez)
• Pack: 15
• Program: 5

For the Mini Seasons, 12 strikeouts with RP/CP are needed to unlock Franco. Two saves with Franco in Mini Seasons will unlock Kinsler, while four extra-base hits with Kinsler will unlock Edmonds. Lastly, 22,000 PXP in the Mini Seasons with any player will unlock Edgar Martinez.

As for the Exchange, one must swap out 82+ OVR cards to get a 91 OVR Young. It’s not the most expensive collection in the world, especially when taking into account that two 90 OVR Topps Now cards are enough to get it done. That equates out to 8,500-9,000 Stubs.
