The replication of player photos goes right back to the eighties, so definitely not a new thing. However, if we were to replicate past cards, why not a return to action shots. Then as collectors, we have a snapshot in time that can last forever.
Gosh, the new members you refer to are driving me round the bend. Probably just Wangy trolling.
The replicated photos are nothing new, Select did it across sets and so did the tazos. I think you're all dreaming if you expect ESP to track down sets of Dynasty to check they weren't reusing any photos from it - but hopefully they don't reuse any photos from their own releases in future.
If a product was right, I think the majority of peoples opinions would be positive but as it is peoples opinions there would still be those of the opinion that they didn't like it for what ever reason but that would be their opinion of which they are entitled to aren't they?
It would be interesting to hear Wangys opinion, so if you are trolling Steve, let's have your opinion please
And yup could have used opinion a little more but it was my opinion not to
The reason for the double ups on photos could be partly because of the photoshopping of backgrounds. There might only be one suitable photo of a player not being tackled or obstructed in some way that they can use in these type of designs.
The other option is for the card manufacturer to wait for the season to start to have new photos but then people would complain because the cards aren't out before the season starts.

and they know how to haggle too the little ....buggers hahahahaha
we usually open packs together so i can show them the safest ways etc how to handle them etc and if they hit something they usually go "WOW its a shiney one, what is it" they then hand it to me and do a victory dance of some sort.............Now thats what collecting is all about
the parallels are exciting for the 1st few packs but then its "its just another one of those" type of things, but the colourful shiney ones are the go and if it is one of their teams its like a full production of grease or something
