2026 Topps Disney Neon Manga Madness: Boost (MM-7) and the Full 15-Card Insert Set!

Buckle Up, Collectors - the Manga Madness Insert Set Just Shifted Into High Gear! ✨
Hey there, fellow Disney card fans! Tilly here, and if you have been anywhere near the 2026 Topps Disney Neon universe lately, you already know things are electric. The neon color palette, the bold glowing character art, the incredible range of characters spanning classics all the way to modern fan favorites - it is one of those sets that just makes you want to rip pack after pack. Today I want to shine the spotlight on one of the most fun and unexpected inserts hiding inside those packs: the Manga Madness insert set, and specifically card MM-7: Boost from the world of Pixar's Cars.
And because Manga Madness is a full 15-card run packed with some genuinely exciting character choices and gorgeous art, I am covering the entire set today. No card left behind! 🎴
What Is the Manga Madness Insert Set?
The Manga Madness insert is one of the themed subsets nestled inside the bold and vibrant 2026 Topps Disney Neon release from Topps. Released on April 17, 2026, this set reimagines beloved Disney and Pixar characters through a manga art lens - giving each card a dynamic, stylized look with bold expressive lines, dramatic poses, and that signature neon-tinged energy that 2026 Topps Disney Neon delivers so beautifully throughout the product. It is such a creative collision of two worlds: classic Disney fandom and the bold visual language of manga art. The result is something that genuinely pops in hand and stands out from other insert sets in the Disney Topps ecosystem.
Here is the full 15-card Manga Madness checklist so you know exactly what you are chasing:
- MM-1 - Woody (Toy Story)
- MM-2 - Jessie (Toy Story)
- MM-3 - Bo Peep (Toy Story)
- MM-4 - Rex (Toy Story)
- MM-5 - Buzz Lightyear (Toy Story)
- MM-6 - Snot Rod (Cars)
- MM-7 - Boost (Cars)
- MM-8 - DJ (Cars)
- MM-9 - Wingo (Cars)
- MM-10 - Lightning McQueen (Cars)
- MM-11 - Aladdin (Aladdin)
- MM-12 - Prince Charming (Cinderella)
- MM-13 - Rapunzel (Tangled)
- MM-14 - Snow White (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
- MM-15 - Evil Queen (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
What a lineup! You get five beloved Toy Story fan favorites kicking things off, a complete crew of Cars street racers from MM-6 through MM-10, and then a gorgeous run of classic Disney royalty to close things out. The Evil Queen reimagined in manga style? That is going to be absolutely stunning. And Rapunzel at MM-13 is always a personal chase card for me - you know I cannot resist her in any art style.
MM-7 Boost - The Street Racer Gets His Closeup
Now let's zoom in on today's featured card: MM-7 Boost. Boost is one of the illegal street racers from the original Pixar Cars film - part of the rowdy, fast-talking crew that worked alongside Chick Hicks and caused chaos on the open road. He is the sleek, dark, neon-lit muscle car with an attitude that matches his turbocharged persona. In the film, the street racers bring an edgy, kinetic energy to the story that feels bold and electric - qualities that make Boost an absolutely perfect subject for a manga-style insert card.
In the Manga Madness format, Boost gets the full treatment. Think bold manga linework, intense color contrasts, and those neon hues that 2026 Topps Disney Neon does so well across the entire product. Card number MM-7 places Boost right in the heart of the Cars crew run, flanked by Snot Rod on MM-6 and DJ on MM-8. If you are building the full Manga Madness set - and I genuinely think you should - those five Cars cards together (MM-6 through MM-10, ending with Lightning McQueen himself) are going to look absolutely incredible displayed side by side.
Every once in a while a card comes along that makes you stop mid-sort and just stare. A great insert does not just feature a character - it gives them a whole new life on cardboard. That is exactly what Manga Madness does for Boost and his crew.
A Little Pixar Cars Memory
I have a genuinely soft spot for the Cars franchise that goes way back. I still remember watching the original Pixar film and being completely surprised by how emotional Radiator Springs felt - all those forgotten characters finding meaning again in a little town that time left behind. That storyline hit me differently than I expected. So when I discovered that Topps gave an entire multi-card run inside Manga Madness to the Cars street racers - not just Lightning McQueen, but the whole crew including Boost, Snot Rod, DJ, and Wingo - I was genuinely thrilled. These kinds of character choices show that Topps thought through the 2026 Neon checklist with real care and affection for the full Cars universe.
Collector Notes - How This Insert Fits the Hobby
As an insert card, the Manga Madness run is exactly the kind of themed subset that energizes both set builders and character collectors. Here is how it breaks down for different collector types:
- Set builders will want all 15 Manga Madness cards to complete the insert run alongside the full 200-card 2026 Neon base set.
- Character collectors chasing Boost, the Toy Story crew, or classic Disney royalty like Rapunzel and the Evil Queen will naturally target specific numbers within the set.
- Cars superfans have a genuine treat here - five Cars characters across a single insert set, including the rarely featured street racers, is a special offering in the Topps Disney ecosystem.
- Hit chasers should keep an eye out for any parallel versions of Manga Madness cards that surface in Hobby and Mega boxes.
It is also worth noting that Boost appears at card number 98 in the main 200-card base set of 2026 Topps Disney Neon, which means hardcore Cars collectors and parallel rainbow chasers have two distinct Boost cards to hunt across the same release. That kind of depth is genuinely exciting.
Display and Storage Ideas
When a beautiful insert like MM-7 Boost lands in my collection, I want to protect it right and show it off in style. For single-card display, I love slipping mine into an Ultra Pro Hinged Card Holder - it sits perfectly on a shelf or desktop and lets you enjoy that manga artwork without any worry about wear or handling. For organizing the full 15-card Manga Madness run alongside the rest of my 2026 Disney Neon pulls, an Ultra Pro Card Storage Box keeps everything sorted, easy to access, and protected for the long haul. Keeping the Cars crew (MM-6 through MM-10) together in sequence is especially satisfying visually.
Mark It in Collectiblz
Once MM-7 Boost finds its way into your collection, pop open the Collectiblz app and mark it as a Have on your 2026 Topps Disney Neon checklist. Tracking your Manga Madness progress card by card is one of the most satisfying parts of building this set - watching that completion progress inch forward, insert by insert, is genuinely motivating. Whether you pick up MM-7 first or start from the Toy Story run at MM-1, every card checked off brings you closer to one of the most visually distinctive inserts of 2026.
Happy hunting, friends, and may every pack you open glow with neon magic! 💜 Tilly
