So few where the main shot had been storm. Brett White, Cooper Cronk, Adam Blair, Steve Turner, Sika Manu, Jeff Lima, Matt King... The list of players who had the majority of their career with us but the main photo is in other colours is painful to me too

Yeah White and Lima finished in green, should have been purple.

Big $ there.

 

[Brendan_B]

Stop crowing about it.

 

[Muzza]

Agree, cheapens the concept. e.g. Dufty as a retirement card would be embarrassing.

Dufty on any card is embarrassing.

There may be some interesting info here tonight at 6pm?

NRL TRADERS 2023 TITANIUM AND RETIAL EDITION

Happy New Year and welcome back to what will be another great year ahead!

TLA are very excited to be launching NRL Traders 2023 TITANIUM edition. We’ve changed things up a little over the last couple years and 2023 is no different.

Built specially for the hobby collector market and only available through TLA Distributors, Dealers, NRL Clubs and TLA’s Website, this release will not be available from Newsagents or Convenience retailers.

We have added more content and more value to this year’s release than ever before, with a total of 20 insert sets to keep collectors busy, this is one of the biggest trading card releases from TLA yet.

We have worked hard to get the value proposition right and to raise the bar again with the design and quality of the product. Collectors won’t be disappointed as this release has a lot to offer and will again be in high demand.

NRL Traders Titanium
• Cases of 12 boxes
• Boxes of 36 packets
• Packets contain 10 cards

Hobby Starter Packs
• Contain 3 loose packets of cards
• With 1 bonus card per starter pack (Club Hero Parallel) individually numbered. These parallels come in three variations - Gold cards numbered to 40 / Silver cards numbered to 75 / and Bronze cards numbered to 125

Hobby Albums
• Contains an Album Card
• 16 Designs / 188 per design individually numbered (Rising Stars parallel)

On-sale Date is Thursday March the 2nd
As mentioned above this release is exclusive to TLA dealers, NRL Clubs and via the TLA Website and will not be made available to general retail by TLA.

NRL Traders 2023 Retail Release

Fuelling the demand for NRL trading cards will always remain a priority for TLA. Mums, Dads and kids should always have access to NRL trading cards at their local newsagents and convenience stores.

For more than 10 years families have purchased individual packets of NRL trading cards from their local stores and as a result the demand for NRL trading cards and the collector base has steadily grown.

So look for the green box when you’re next instore, our newsagent and convenience store retailers are looking forward to stocking a release that is exclusive to this channel in 2023

End

So, Traders Titanium seems like Footy Stars Premium from the AFL, just released at the same time and not after?

I note no retail price listed on the Titanium sell sheet, I wonder what the markup will be?

If I am reading correctly, the following inserts are only available in the Titanium version.

1. Driving Force Group
2. Scoring Machines
3. Pearl Special Gold
4. Authentic Signatures Black

Gene Miles Legend

 

[Alex_H_86]

Guess’s for the second legend???

I hope we get Greg Florimo

Mick Cronin aka 'The Crow' from Parramatta

 

[Brendan_B]

Gene Miles Legend

Great choice, in the Immortal conversation IMO.

 

[redtorana]

Titanium Boxes will be around the $180 each with only 875 cases produced ...Titanium boxes will only be available from selected Dealers ...

 

[MikeK]

Does Titanium replace Priority? If so, are the Titanium and Retail card ratios "combined" - eg across the total Titanium+Retail cases combined, they share the 208 Legend cards.

Looks like 2 types of Starter packs again: Hobby and Retail - correct? If so, are the bonus cards different (again)?

Looks like 2 types of Album: Hobby and Retail - correct? Do both have an album card?

Are they doing Legends case cards this year? How are they distributed. What's happening with Retail case cards (dealer stock vs newsagents stock)?

Way too confusing again.

There will still be Priority boxes available ... Ratios are combined through out both releases accept for the inserts only available in the Titanium boxes and Priority boxes )
Driving Force Group , Scoring Machines , Pearl Special Gold , Authentic Signatures Black )

There are Retail and Hobby Starters available this year with differend bonus cards in Hobby and Retail ...

Retail albums will not have a folder card ..Titanium folders will have a folder card ...

No retail case cards from what I have been told ...Titanium cases will have a case card and yes there is a Legend case card of /30

From what I have been told (RETAIL STOCK WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE FROM NEWSAGENTS SERVOS AND SO ON )

Selected dealers will only have Titanium boxes / cases available ...

So, if I’m right, the Dolphins don’t have common cards in this set BUT if you get 18 x 1 per box redemption cards, you can redeem them for a set?

 

[Sharks16]

I would love to see some new concepts and fresh ideas but from what I have read on other forums, CTRL C , CTRL V from the last two years.

I believe that Legends might go to Brisbane and Parramatta, not confirmed and unsure of players. Gene Miles and Brett Kenny would be crackers.

2 good picks . Would be real keen on a Brett Kenny, would be great .

 

[Sharks16]

Got excited before I realised it was Mick Cronin . Still great pick and hopefully a bit cheaper than what a Brett Kenny would of been Think they both might be a bit cheaper than what the Meninga cards went for after release last year ?

 

[Brendan_B]

Mal prices were nuts, I still don’t know why. You can get one for $450 now and that $450-$550 bracket is what they are worth.
