We are taking the VeeFriends universe into deep space! As one of the nine brand-new inserts debuting in the 2026 Topps Chrome VeeFriends release, Stellar Haze introduces a gorgeous, cosmic aesthetic. This insert feels like opening a portal into the VeeFriends universe. Every card has this atmospheric, dreamlike energy that makes the characters feel larger than life.
Whether you are a sci-fi enthusiast drawn to the deep space theme, a dedicated character collector, or simply a fan of vibrant, high-gloss Chrome designs, this visually stunning insert is bound to be a standout in your binder.
Let’s take a closer look at what makes these hazy cards so stellar.
A Simply Stellar Design
This set completely reimagines the characters’ surroundings, placing them directly into the vastness of outer space. Looking at the official reveal card for the Adventurous Astronaut, the character is illustrated with a brilliant, glowing neon-blue outline that makes it pop off the card. The artwork depicts the character floating through a deep, dark starry background accented by bright shooting stars. The sleek design is tied together with the “VF” logo positioned in the top left corner and the Topps Chrome logo in the top right.
When paired with the premium Topps Chrome technology, these galactic backgrounds truly come to life. The metallic, high-gloss finish perfectly catches the light of the stars and nebulas, giving the cards a deep, three-dimensional spatial feel that draws the eye in. The reveal also showcases the ultimate chase for Adventurous Astronaut: the highly coveted 1/1 parallel.
But the true magic of this insert lies in its rarities: the specific parallel color will actually shine through the stars in the background, creating an unbelievable cosmic glow that elevates the artwork.
For the dedicated rainbow runners, here is the parallel run:
- Base
- Gold Refractor /50
- Orange Refractor /25
- Black Refractor /10
- Red Refractor /5
- SuperFractor 1/1
