Got a question about ESP Rugby League Trading cards?

[Matt26]

Hi everyone,

I am catching up with an ESP representative on the phone late next week and I wanted to give you the opportunity to put forward some questions you would like me to ask them? I can't guarantee I will be able to ask every question posted but I'll do my best.

Feel free to post below anything you would like to find out about?

Cheers
Matt

Hi Matt
could you ask if they are going to number the signature cards in the future.
Also are the Avengers morphing cards still going ahead.

 

[BoondasH1]

Any past player releases installed for the future? i.e Game worn jersey cards or signature cards. Thanks

 

[troy titans]

Will they be doing rookie signatures?

Will they create a website and Facebook page for the cards?

Will they're be some sort of card for team of the year, and other players that achieve awards or are they going to go away from this?

Are they going to do any sort of collectibles for Nrl other then cards?

 

[AutographedMemorabilia]

Are they going to make them cheaper so everyone can afford them.

 

[AutographedMemorabilia]

Ooooh Ooooh i forgot my second question is 2014 they are planning on having as the top card a redemption card which is to get 1 in 6 CARS and yes it is Cars if this is they case will the cards be selling as a pack for between $12 to $15 a pack people here are about collection cards and would like to keep it a collection who is going to buy the cards and how will that be factored into the price on a pack of cards.

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

Also how many series will they be producing per year, Select generally did 2 per year..
Will they also be doing the Daily Telegraph cards as well?

 

[ooneil]

I can confirm Select are doing DT cards

 

[jonnov0007]

As stated before, is their gonna be an official website?
Do they plan on becoming a regular member of Ozcardtrader?
will collectors get promos and if so, how do we get on their mailing list?
Do they think their first production series was a success?

I sugested that to terry at the penrith show that if they put the price up any further they will price the kids out of the market.
And the cars were toyota i believe.

Such a stupid gimmick. I just want good cards.

I reckon it will be more than just the kids priced out.

My One Question:

Can they please relinquish the license so we can have select back. thanks

 

[thenamesgould]

Will they have match-worn NRL patch cards?

Well said

 

[thenamesgould]

Select doesn't want the licence you muppets!

Will future sets have a great variety of inserts, with different odds?

Will future parallel sets have different photos on them from the main set?

Can we expect future sets to have one solid hit per box, thus enticing more casual fans to buy a box?

 

[troy titans]

parralels need to be cheaper too

 

[DamoG]

Are there any plans to employ a graphic designer?

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Can they make ONE decent set, with 18 players per team - I don't care if they use a title card, 16 players and an up & comer U20 player but I get f***ed off when a player gets a card here Series 1 2013, then Series 2 2014 and then Series 1 and 2 2015 and none in 2016, and series 1 in 2017 [ if that makes sense ]] and they are a REGULAR squad member.

Also - top players missing common cards in a set. Sam Burgess or Nathan Merritt for mine as a Souths supporter. But Nathan Hindmarsh missed a common card in the CENTENARY Set - FFS!!! Or Menzies and Matt Cooper used to come and go a bit in and out of sets.

A nice mixed box with something for everybody - a parallel card 1 per pack, something 1 in 3 or 6 packs, 1 in 12 packs, 2 per box, 1 per box or the like to keep all collectors interested. Box card or case card as well.

As far as I'm concerned, start off by making ONE decent set a season, and as demand calls for it, increase to maybe two and three.

For mine, I'd like to see TWO producers plying their trade. But we have ESP now, so I'll go with them and give them the benefit of the doubt. I'm not pro or anti any producer...I just want cards!!!

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Oh, and I'd like to see a continuing series of either:

Premiership Winners 4-5 per series - the team photo of the grand final winning team. With 100 odd, it would take 20 series to complete but worth it.

And a Kanagroos / Kiwis subset.
