The 1992 cards are not all that rare and not worth that much, also if unopened boxes weren’t stored right the gum would go off and leech thru the cards, was a bad year for bubblegum, lol.
I was lucky to win a 1992 set with the correct fault cards in set, Andrew langford n Paul Harrigan have correct info on back of cards. was competition on wrapper and was drawn grand final day by Benny Elias, I still have letter in my folder.
my mate says the holy grail is the 1963 set he has, me I would say any 70s unopened scanlen cards would be awesome.

For Nostalgia sake, I'd love a box/packs of 1991 Scanlens ..... lots of great childhood memories there.
Would kill to go back to 1991 where you played footy after school then the Ice Cream truck would come around and have a couple of fresh boxes with lots of these packs sitting there waiting to be ripped open. Panthers, Raiders and the Kangaroos cards were the hot cards to have and the rest were used in playing flicks.
I think our street alone kept Joe the Ice Cream truck driver (and Scanlens) in business with our purchases!
Fun times!
Cheers

yep great times we had as kids compared to today, loved the ice cream van, the 1991 set is cool with kangaroos at rear of set getting them in great condition was always hard as kangaro cards corners where always rounded, but have looked after mine quite well. I have nearly all folders released missing a couple only. Loved opening cards the number of wrappers I have thrown in bin is crazy lol. The older cards before chase cards also have way more character and playing flights, tips, closet to wall etc etc, was so much fun, once I went to high school we upgraded game in toilets to closet to wall but used 20 cent coins instead of cards also, when you won had a good day at tuck shop, lol
