1:432 (case) for whiteHaven't bought Rugby League cards since 94. I would like to buy a box Thursday. Pretty impressed that actual on card autos can be had. Can anyone tell me the rough odds of hitting those? The on card version not the facsimile. Cheers.
Thanks. Appreciate it. I like the idea that you have a chance at a on card auto1:432 (case) for white

Unless you are just busting for the fun and hope to hit, it is much cheaper to grab the auto you want (pending availability) from the secondary market. Unfortunately the condition of some signature cards this year has been bad with damage to the cards and signatures.
If you buy a box, good luck !!
Yes just busting for fun and no particular auto in mind. It would be awesome to hit a Legends signature, though.1:432 (case) for white

It’s wishful thinking, but with TLA in charge there’s really no chance of salvaging the Traders. Our only hope would be for there to be a change of leadership at TLA or the set to be passed on to another company.The lack of activity on here really highlights the downfall in the fun that we should all be enjoying in this. I was talking with my brother tonight about the difference between 1993 and 1994, Regina to Select when it changed from just team sets to trying to find the magic cards(sigs). My daughter, who's 3.5, loves the enjoyment of filling her folder with every player imaginable and it reminds me that we've lost touch with what's this was about, finding and supporting our favourite teams/players, taking pride in our allegiances and never ever chasing the $$. I hope that someday soon we can go back to what this means for so many of us
That exact thing has been done in traders before, like literally exact sameAn Idea for a card design that I've always had is in some way like a 4 and 2 but its much easier to get its like a box hit. The set should be called Dynamic Duo and each card will like 2 players from a certain team, one being a forward and one being a back who work really well together. Like for Souths it could be Cody Walker and Cam Murray. In terms of the card design I have a few ideas in my head which I could try and make. It is just a insert type I have always thought would be cool.
oh my bad, whats the insert series called?That exact thing has been done in traders before, like literally exact same
You wouldn't believe it but dynamic duooh my bad, whats the insert series called?
They are contractually not allowed to.Surprised neither the Traders or Elite have done an Immortals or Hall of Fame set yet.
Makes sense I suppose, are there any other type of sets they’re restricted from producing?They are contractually not allowed to.

Edit.They are contractually not allowed to.
m surprised at the lack of quality players signing in NRL Traders. I tried looking for a checklist but the TLA website only has the 2020 one up. Just looking at ebay it's only legends sigs that you'd be interested in hitting outside your own team. Do the Tedesco level players have sigs in another product?They are contractually not allowed to.
Yep, Elite generally has better quality players on signature cards. The issue is TLA average 40 + signatures per year (some years over 60) so eventually the quality will thin.m surprised at the lack of quality players signing in NRL Traders.

Teddy for example has already signed three times, twice as a Tiger (13 Traders Young Gun and 14 Elite Young Gun) and then 18 Elite for the Roosters as a League Sensation which also has a black variant.
I don't know anything about TLA but the fact that they didn't have a checklist up on their website surprised me to say the least. It's nothing like Select's website which is pretty slick.I think that TLA needs to do quite a bit of soul searching as to the products it plans to put out in the future....... the challenge they need to meet is satisfying the old school collectors and also putting out something that will appeal to new collectors both at a market entry level and a higher end level.
The biggest failing they have had is that during an industry boom they haven't taken advantage of the huge influx of money into the card collecting industry (Select certainly have)....... instead of using this time to further build up the business, we simply get what we have always got and which is wearing out a lot of collectors and turning people away.
In card companies you need 2 things, integrity and some innovation...... im not sure they have either of that at present.
