Select yesterday posted on Facebook that every round this season they will be releasing a Select "Hilites" card "highlighting a major play of the round". They will be available through Select's website and individually numbered to however many are ordered.
I think it's a good idea......although Topps and Panini have been doing this for a long time with hundreds of different cards released some 1/1 cards others limited to purchased print runs.
If it's one a week and it's limited, I think it will work.....however if they have multiple per week and different versions they it may be too much.
I love it! Absolutely brilliant idea in my opinion. Select have upped their game in the 2016-17 period I think. It's something for all footy card collectors to look out for each week, due to its random nature - very clever marketing!
Very clever marketing. Don't mind the idea at all and even brought one and will continue to buy them all each week. Only issue I have is their choice of spelling for 'Hilites' bugs me and the card could have had some gold foil or something to make it a little more appealing.

It's come out-of-the-blue a bit, but I'm all for something new and different. I reckon quite a few will go for the full set, personally I'll probably just get any Eagles ones.
Definitely another step in the right direction from Select!
I reckon you'll find quite a few people will buy more than one with the intention of selling to make a profit. You will have to pay overs but should be able to get one when people start to receive them.
