Or should I have said the pain.

All jokes aside,I hope there are some decent cards for everyone to collect in this release. I would like to see a Zac Lomax LS.

Yeah, hopefully some more little sneak peaks to come!

 

[Bronco79]

I'm looking forward to this release regardless. It will be the first time in over 10 years that I will be buying a case. I'm excited and can't wait

Get yourself a couple of beers and enjoy it mate . Good feeling having 10 boxes and some guaranteed hits

I like the design but the auto box is too narrow in the middle and has a lot of wasted space on the lower edges. I don't blame Simpkin for signing outside the box.

Are there any new release ideas that people are hoping for in elite this year?

I would love to see something very different. A dual autograph series with a past and present theme, much like the Mirror signatures from the AFL Optimum last year.

I am not hopeful though. We know that YG signatures are back and I suspect 3 levels of LS again and some sort of jersey signature series.

It’s a detail thing, and may seem minor, but I would like the ruby mojos to use red foil, sapphire mojos to use blue, and so on. Seems like a missed opportunity to just put gold foil on every subset.

 

[Matt26]

Just as an FYI - I wouldn't be surprised to see the Elite sell sheet as early as mid this week.

Now that gets me really excited!

The Rubies really popped with the first couple of releases when they were a gloss finish. The current matt finish just does not suit them but I'm guessing it's cheaper so that's what we get.

The sell sheet will certainly be good to see early on. Hopefully there are no nasty surprises with the prices!

Someone on @Diggaz TC NRL breaks had some rumoured mail that Garrick and Haumole were the signatures.... @MikeK

Prices will be the same as last year ...RRP $10 a pack / with Folders $35

Rumour is Album cards are back?

Rumour is Album cards are back?

At $35 per folder that is a good thing. Hopefully folder cards are one per team to limit the numbers and add some collectibility. Previous folder cards in Elite were limited to 1, the Dally M winner.

 

[JCam06]

Rumour is Album cards are back?

It’s like Christmas, we finally get albumn cards for a folder that’s no difference to traders and is $10 more
