ESP NRL Traders 2013 Sneak Peak UPDATED WITH NEW IMAGE

[Diggaz TC]

Hmm, so if it's numbered to 200 (although you'd think ESP would have the players sign extras in case of damage, they did with ESP Limited Edition) then it seems it's not one Sig per box??? Otherwise it'd be a 266 case release which is just not true. Indications were already that it was an 800ish case release.

 

[ooneil]

Sounds like 1 in 3 boxes. No wonder they are keep this information close to their chest.

 

[ooneil]

and the legend card signatures (you would figure) are /100 which would be 1 in 4 cases.

 

[ch0pzta]

So these 'Young Guns' sigs will be similar to the 2011 Champions Star Sigs.....

These could be worth a fair bit more than regular Top Prospects....

 

[Matt26]

I worked it out...if there are 500 cases the young guns would be 1:67 or 1 in 2 boxes.

if there are 1000 cases they would be 1:135

I believe 1 in every 2 boxes sound about right.

cheers

[ooneil]

Hope your right Matt but 500 cases sounds low for a retail release (Select did ~2,000 cases of champions last year) even with the power play series coming out.

i wonder how many starter packs they did and if there is any potential of hitting a signature card because that could reduce the chance of gettting a hit in a case aswell?

Power Play out 08 Apr 13 I hear..............

Well I am thinking everyone is wrong, I think there will be a lot more than 100 of these and I reckon they are going to be a foiled signature similar to what we have seen in other releases. We will find out soon enough I suppose.

Time will tell but foiled sigs would be a big dissapointmnet.

Blake Austin from the Panthers tweeted me and said he signed 200 young guns cards.



cheers

Matt

This sounds to me like they will be hand signed.

I am sure, based on what we have seen, the young guns are hand signed on the card. I still reckon the Legends (Johns & Raper) are foiled sigs.

Top Prospects hand signed would make sense , Immortals foiled sigs would certainly be a let down no doubt .......

Oh you meant the Legends might be foiled.......damn that would be dissappointing ...........although I might then be able to afford the Raper card.

Ross

 

[tak35bne]

Well I am ever so happy to be so wrong about something. The Legends sigs are on a foil card but they are an actual on card auto and they are hand numbered 1/of whatever.

Happy days hobo

 

[Brendan_B]

Well ESP have certainly got everyone talking and intrigued about this release, quite well done really!

 

[Matt26]

From what Terry said the legends are signed...not a foil sig. Why would they only make 2 legends cards and have them as a foil sig. If they were a foil sig, I'm sure they would do all of the immortals.

cheers

[CARDoHOLIC]

When will they be released?

 

[ooneil]

When will they be released?
