100% agree with this...…..I think this years product looks great (love the patch booklets and the league sensations) and I cant wait to see cases and boxes being busted hopefully soon!

It looks like a cracker of a release which is why I have bought a case to crack myself. The only concern is the confidence in the company which sees prices tumble along with collectors who dump the stuff themselves.

Looks like they've arrived a week early as there are live breaks happening tonight.

When does the rest of the country get their stock.

Posted out Boxes all over the country today so I'd expect it to be showing up from tomorrow.

 

[collect94]

I'd just like to see the postage staggered so that all dealers get their sales out on the same day. I've missed out on a lot of trades because I've had to wait an extra 3 days for delivery due to the weekend falling in between delivery and receipt days.

Definately. That and the fact that I have had personal dealings with both Ikon and Michael for when I was more involved in the industry. I've always brought quantities from one or the other over the years.

As for quantity available to newsagencies I haven't even looked at what I will be getting from Ovato (Formerly Gordon & Gotch)
I know I will get some (but it's mainly the albums I'll be looking forward to from them)
If they restrict it to box by box that would be ridiculous. Two delivery days a week... Someone comes in on Thrusday and buys the stock you get nothing more until Monday. (If your lucky!)

If your a very busy newsagency, say in central sydney, and you get 1 box as Mark says, they would be ringing every day for a box for 2 weeks and if they didnot get supply , who suffers, seller and buyers.
So 1 box per day or per order, will be hogg wash , bull crap whatever you want to call it.
A suicide distribution, hope your got your own nails ready tla if you want to go down that track.

Saw that on face book, so much for changing how its to be delivered and distributed.

Very nice hits

Though no mojos other then ruby and sapphire

Similar ratio as last year but without a full pack of sapphires it’s probably slightly less ?

Looks different. I have been cracking a case each yr. usually get a full set of mojo.

Though @Diggaz TC did say something about there is seven make ups of the cases this yr

Yeah that’s what I mean , actually less bang if your not getting the full mojo set . Especially having 5 different teams with the 5 sapphires. Encourages trading but just makes it more expensive.

Collation was all over the shop also, in my case I got:

1 x YG white
2 x YG Black
4 x LS white
4 x Sapphire mojo's (including a parra checklist)
10 x Ruby mojo's (including a Broncos checklist)
1 x jersey patch redemption
1 x Spotlight jersey signature patch redemption for Will Hopoate from the Dogs.

With your jersey redemption patch.Did the redemption card already have a piece of jersey in it.So do you get another card with a piece of jersey in it when you redeem it,plus your original card.
