On April 24, Sony released the first MLB The Show 26 Legends & Flashbacks Collection rewards in Diamond Dynasty. For those new, this includes acquiring as many non-Live Series cards as possible to earn some beefy rewards. And the first marquee reward is a 99 OVR Milestone of Miguel Cabrera, who is back in the game for the first time since 2023.
Miguel Cabrera Requirements
First off, a look at the cards available in the first MLB The Show 26 Legends & Flashbacks Collection. Both are Miguel Cabrera cards:
95 OVR
99 OVR
MLB The Show 26 players will need 12 vouchers for the 95 OVR Miguel Cabrera, and 21 for the 99 OVR. Essentially, the 95 OVR is a card to hold over individuals who can’t get enough vouchers right away for his 99 OVR version.
So, how do you get vouchers?
Vouchers
Vouchers are obtainable by acquiring a specified number of cards for each series. Let’s break down the different series that are needed for the vouchers:
| Series | Requirement |
|---|---|
| 2nd Half Heroes | 15 (83%) |
| All-Star | 39 (93%) |
| Awards | 18 (78%) |
| Breakout | 17 (94%) |
| Contributor | 18 (90%) |
| Cornerstone | 2 (100%) |
| Egg Hunt | 15 (83%) |
| Jolt | 30 (50%) |
| Last Ride | 1 (50%) |
| Mexico City | 4 (100%) |
| Milestone | 2 (50%) |
| Negro Leagues | 27 (90%) |
| New Threads | 91 OVR Bo Bichette (23) |
| Rookie | 7 (83%) |
| Postseason | 9 (75%) |
| Spotlight | 12 (100%) |
| Spring Breakout | 90 OVR Konnor Griffin (16) |
| Standout | 3 (75%) |
| St. Patrick’s Day | 8 (100%) |
| Topps Now | 24 (100%) |
| Veteran | 11 (91%) |
| World Baseball Classic | 94 OVR Maikel Garcia (142) |
For the vast majority of Diamond Dynasty players, this will not be obtainable at launch.
Many of the collection vouchers require Live Series Collection rewards. For example, the Standout Series only had four players as of April 24. Two (Nettles (Yankees) and Sanchez (Tigers)) required well over 600,000 Stubs to obtain.
As for the Milestone Collection, there are technically four Milestones — but one is the 99 OVR Cabrera. Thus, players needed either two of the 94 OVR Jackie Robinson, 91 OVR Chone Figgins, or the 99 OVR Troy Tulowitzki to earn that voucher.
Additionally, all eight of the St. Patrick’s Day cards released were required. One of those was a 90 OVR Mike Trout, a special insert card that was trading at over 80,000 Stubs.
The good news is that many of these series should see additional cards added throughout the year. Spotlight and Topps Now cards are released weekly, making those the easiest to catch up on.
Jolt Series cards can be obtained through the lone Team Affinity series of the year. Individuals must complete a combination of Moments and PXP/Stat Missions to complete those. Not all 60 are needed yet but will likely be required for a future Legends & Flashbacks Collection.
