I feel your pain mate, I've gone through countless packs and starters the last few years, not to mention the dreaded "curse of the dud box" striking me down. The Law of Averages isn't always a sound science. So I just keep battling away, coz Footy Cards is my thing that I do.Dont know how you blokes manage to jag a hit in a few packets, Ive busted about 300 packs the past 2 releases, a mix of boxes, starters and loose packets and not got anything better than a gold sig.
When i looked at the sales flyer it seemed the colours matched the respective teams, but when I've looked again it does appear that it IS in fact, the normal Startoon in different colours.Jut looked on eBay and it seems the startoon cards inserted in the 3 pack starter pack consist of the same startoon cards that come from a sealed box but each player has 4 different colour coding. Does this mean there are 4 parallel sets of startoon? Can anyone clarify?
Anyone know if one of the 4 colour is more limited than another?When i looked at the sales flyer it seemed the colours matched the respective teams, but when I've looked again it does appear that it IS in fact, the normal Startoon in different colours.
Which is a bummer because it makes it harder to see who you're getting before you buy the starter pack (Last year you could tell which card was in the starter pack because the edge of the card stuck out and you could tell by the colour who it was.)
It doesn't appear so. Starter Packs aren't supposed to be officially available until next Thursday, so by then we'll know.Anyone know if one of the 4 colour is more limited than another?
Exactly write. Most people that have bought 4 loose packs and got a hit have also bout 4 loose packs from twenty other newsagents and servos and got nothingJust remember a lot of people posting their hits from only a few packs probably dont post every time they buy that amounts of packs and get nothing more than a parallel...
If you buy from a newsagent or servo and can afford it take one complete side from a full box. Takes you to a 50% chance of the hit of there is one in the box. If you buy mixed loose packs then just think you are paying that coin for a FOG or pearl and it won't hurt as much lolDont know how you blokes manage to jag a hit in a few packets, Ive busted about 300 packs the past 2 releases, a mix of boxes, starters and loose packets and not got anything better than a gold sig.
At the end of the day I'm sure if you had the means to obtain your stock early you would do the same.Did I miss something but I thought the release date for traders 2018 was the 8th March. I understand the dealers did pre-sales and case breaks started last Friday but it seems there are some that have their cases on sale already!!
Not sure that is fare...
My best elite starter pack was two sigs out of three packsI mean, Elite was my luckiest set ever last year. Approx 36 loose packs. Got 1 LS, 1 YG, 1 ASP, 1 Ruby Mojo and 3 captains. Not a single dud either.

Order was already put in but living in Melbourne these days, seems to be the after thought after NSW and QLD have their stock.
Anyway. That was my beef. I've said what I wanted to say.
