they didn't put em in the first batch of packs.
or the second even.
so there's probably like 200,000+ packs with just the regular silver kickers
that will never make sets.
just a lame marketing ploy thinking no one would notice, make 'em chase
the reds by buying more chips i spose.
they are meant to be 1 in 10 packs, that may be the case when they do put them in packs, i did 1000 packs with not one red.
had to make serious threats to finally get some sent to me, which is why i'm
the only one that has them i spose, no-one else has done enough or gone to the trouble of getting them to dish 'em out.
i wrote in my auctions i've found them in 20 packs or more, that was cos they assured me they will be in the next batch, well, stuff em, i've done packs now with august use by dates, still nothing so they deserve to be outed now.
I have now been finding the Red Kickers more in packs than the normal ones.
Go figure. They are obviously trying to make up for the fact that they were not in the first two released batches of chips. The other day i Bought 8 packets and they included 7 red rare ones???????? Tonight I bought another 7 packets and they all included Red ones. Now I know which batch of chips and which use by date that they put them in. I have spent a bomb on these things though. If you want to know just contact me. Cheers. I'm happy to try and help fellow collectors.
Yep,
Thats what I figured. Thanks for your reply. It is good to help all the collectors out.
Cheers,
Graeme
ps Rumor has it that that is the end of the Reds so get them while you can. They were all put in this batch.
