Maybe everyone who goes in a draft break needs to provide a contact number to Owen.........

Speaking of #1's this arrived in NZ yesterday

I've been only buying 1 spot per break but always seem to get Titans. So I bought 2 in each this time around just to guarantee a different team. Glad I did, got Titans in both again....lol. Won't be so funny when the BIrd Redemption comes out though.....

There are some pretty damaging rumours doing the rounds about ESP. We work very closely with ESP in a number of areas. They are extremely supportive of the hobby and we feel inclined to defend these rumour on their behalf head on. So let me start by saying – there is ZERO truth to any of what is being said!

Lets start with the rumours lies and facts:

1. 2014 Elite is not sold out and there are 100+ cases still in China.

2014 Elite is a genuine sellout. ESP have absolutely NO cases left. How do I know? I bought the last four and picked them up from ESP directly 3 weeks ago! Ikon Collectables have a handful of cases left however that is it. The rest is with sellers in the secondary market or been busted.

2. ESP have replaced Ikon Collectables with another distributer.

Okay if you really believe that ESP have replaced their national distributor with an ebay seller then maybe don’t bother reading on. This is laughable at best.

3. ESP are in financial trouble and may not be making any more cards.

This rumour is irresponsible, defamatory to ESP and damaging to the general hobby. 2014 sales for ESP have been up significantly on 2013. In fact the business has expanded so rapidly that ESP have had to move into larger offices to accommodate the extra staff.

All 2015 products remain on schedule. Traders is in the final stages of being packed out and will be available from the first week of March. Power Play is currently being printed and scheduled for release in April. Elite is in the final planning stages before printing and I can tell you all that it will be a step up from 2014 Elite.

While i am unsure exactly where these rumours are originating the person running around spreading them is an out and out liar, has an ax to grind and has had an anti ESP agenda since the day Select walked away from the NRL trading card license.

Defend your hobby and please treat this person and these rumours with the contempt that they deserve.

Finally bust my centenary box from this case share.

Pkt 4 major major Mojo John Raper Signature Redemption.

This was the 14th box of centenary I have busted over the past few years and Finally a big hit.

Big thanks to Micheal and Sonny for putting on this case break.

I have always liked fleer cards. Sadly my sets are packed away elsewhere, but I do have a a photo of a card from one of my favourite sets.

ALSO THIS (technically it doesn't break the rules lol):

All good now folks thanks to the wonderful Rabbitflat

Hey guys,

Mr Paparazzi here, I have a Personal case of Sons of Anarchy arriving this Tuesday or Wednesday.

Can't wait to bust this the Mrs and I love the show, would love to bust a Perlman (Clay Morrow), Ryan Hurst (Opie) and Charlie Hunnam auto (Jax).

Case busted - Think I did well happy with the results but missed out on a Jax (Charlie Hunnam) auto

Tattoo and Foil (Completed both sets in the case break)

Onto the good stuff

Mens of Mayhem Patch - Looks awesome in hand - Leather background 

Jax Printing Plate - Usually 0-1 per case

Short Print Motion Money Prop

Tigs Auto Short Print version with Tigs inscription

Katey Sagal as Gemma Teller-Morrow

and one of the three MAJOR HITS I wanted to hit

Hellboy himself  - Ron Perlman as Clay Morrow

No Jax or Juice auto but was stoked with Printing Plate, Money Prop and Ron Perlman auto

Hope you enjoyed all Relics, Patch and Printing Plate for sale, Auto's are going into my PC

It's no secret that I really like 90's cards and whilst I do like auto's and sick patches too, I'd like to see what everyones favourite card they have that doesn't contain an auto or jersey/patch (other game used stuff like net, ball is ok as they are more rare).

Mine would probably have to be this beauty..

Well done Ayios, you probably just scored a Feki YG....lol

I'm a pretty good sport so I'll take whatever team is left after everyone else has picked theirs..........

FIRSTLY THANKS TO MY DENG CONSULTANT FOR BUYING ALL THESE.

Introducing former Bulls player Luol Deng. Now that he is a CAV the collection will probably slow down in growth as I don't think I can collect him in a CAVS uniform.

Pictures take a long time to take and process so I may update this thread later or do another thread when I finally photograph the rest of the cards.

Thanks for looking.
