Select Upcoming Series Info

hahaha too many colours would drain it, but I still think it could make a nice set!

I dont like different coloured signatures but am all for different coloured parallals like red and blues last year! How cool would it be if they did the three primary colours for each team haha (and those that dont do a multcolour version (e.g ruchmond black para, yellow para, black/ yellow stripes para)
 
It's all been pretty quiet so far. Anyone know anything else that they can share, or any rumours floating around?

Hopefully not too long until Select start slowly revealing some info about the series.
 
Pieces of the puzzle seem to be looking like this in terms of upper ends from this incoming release:

Certified 700 (220); 1:2 packs
Certified 460 (less cards this year; some clubs with more than others); 1:4 packs
All Australian; 1:6 packs
Hall of Fame Gallery (30); 1:9 packs
Hall of Fame xxx/800 (30); 1:18 packs
Rookie Signatures xxx/180 (25); 1:72 packs
SCS Signatures xxx/180 (25); 1:72 packs
Medal Winners xxx/280 (5); 1:216 packs
Select Legacy Signatures Gold (white background, black ink xx/90); (16); 1:216 packs
Select Legacy Signatures Black (black background, gold ink xx/40); (18); 1:432 packs
Premiership Redemption xxx/700; 1:432 packs
[Influential (IC1-18); (xx/30; 1:576 packs); (IO1-18); (xx/10; 1:1296 packs); 1:case]
Hall of Fame Signatures; 1:864 packs
Hall of Fame Legends Refactors; 1:864 packs
HF Super Coach Signatures (5); 1:1728 packs xx/50
HF Super Coach Double Headers (4); 1:3456 packs xx/25

ps Feel free to disregard another petty speculation again however bottom line is we know the top ends will not be inclusive of GWS and Gold Coast but I DO think Select will find a way to include them somehow and anticipation is a far cry considering NRL series II breakdown has already been revealed almost 7 weeks into the actual release date. Even if I'm wrong well at least Certified release might up-value just a little
 
I am led to believe that one of the case card signatures is David Cloke.

Also the major card I was told about was that there was to be a multi signature card featuring the 4 time premiership winning coaches Barassi/Parkin/Clarkson/Matthews/Sheedy.

Lets see how true this is!

That would be massive if true. Thanks for dropping some possible info. Doesn’t seem to be coming from anywhere else so good to start getting excited about something. Any idea if GU cards are coming back at all?
 
Select need to get better at releasing info to generate hype...

I actually forgot there was going to be another release this year.
They actually need to not as you will see with the NRL release, it will be picked apart before it gets released and the excitement will be completely gone. Pre-sales will be through the roof and by the time it actually hits the market prices will have plummeted. Much better having a shorter preview closer to the release date.

Still love to know where you get your ideas from? If that was the release, I couldn't imagine the cost of each box! Think you've gone way over expectations there.
 
I like that Select don’t release info so far out, we will see a few teasers in the coming weeks but they won’t release a checklist till days before, it stops the presales that pretty much destroy the market, I bet people will be over NRL Elite before they even open a packet

The simpler way way would just to not supply the few sellers who dump everything on release.

The fact is that I would prefer to know what i'm buying more than a few days out from release.

They still pre-sell by just knowing how many of everything there is. They buy enough to make sure they have enough for the pre-sales and after. Only way to stop it is of they don't know anything.

Easier said than done you could just get someone else to buy it for you if they tried to stop supply, I like how they build excitement with the sneak peek every week, I have been reading the thread on 2018 elite, flyer is out you know what your getting still 6 weeks before it’s released but it’s now getting picked apart which is fine as debate is good but I could see people being over it before they even get cards in hand

I agree. And i think there are ways around the pre-sellers. Release teasers of cards but don't say if it's numbered or what the odds are, don't give any info at all, just a picture. I'm happy for the checklist to be released only a week out but i personally want to start seeing some of the things coming up a good month out to start building that excitement. Right now I'm keen for series 2 but not overly excited as we have zero idea what's going to be included in the set. Actually that's a lie, we know the name is Legacy and we have seen one of the signature cards which hasn't changed from the previous few years so nothing special there.
 
Oh, but it has... You'll see.

Well not the picture we saw on Instagram, from memory it looked like previous years Certified sigs. Not saying there’s nothing different, just saying they haven’t released any teasers yet. Hard to build excitement when the general collecting public have no idea what’s coming. I don’t like the full checklist released a month out like the NRL, but surely Select can start to get some stuff out by now.

There will be previews coming during July in the lead up to the release.
 
Definitely need to start doing teasers not a full blown preview, that can be done closer to the release date.

They need to ramp up advertising to try and draw in casuals.
