The Erling Haaland Thread
 

Feels like Erling Haaland is overdue for his own appreciation thread. This man child is dominating the Champions League and Bundesliga like nobody before him, and scoring video game goals like every other day.

Any Haaland collectors want share some pics of your collection? Thoughts on his best RCs? Fun articles/highlights?

Or Mbappe fans want to throw some shade? :flex:

glad to pickup a sapphire of his

Nice. Do you think Sapphire will end up being his hallmark RC, or Bundesliga? I suppose there's room for multiple cards at the top of the pecking order...

Great goal scorer but also great feet for a big guy. Reminds me of Zlatan

I like his Immaculate RC best because of the photo

There is no arguing with Haaland's production, and I'm sure someone will show me his goal today to counter my point, but everytime I watch him I think of a moose learning to run. Not really doing him justice, but I kind of think of Haaland as Peter Crouch on steroids.

His Fussball Sticker and/or Finest Rookie (in Salsburg Kit) will be the go to card for collectors IMHO.

That goal today was insane, his first one. Amazing in the air kick. 1:40 min mark

I see what you mean...I think the Basketball analogy is Luka Doncic :D

That's a good analogy. And, I suppose, people said the same thing about Tom Brady, too.

That black back, dark ink one has been over printed. There must be 10s of 1000s of them at this stage. The lighter, first print will become the must have card. I wonder if PSA or the rest of them will start acknowledging the different print runs.

He has a lot of options but I think it will end up being the Sapphire with the RC Logo

How is the Topps Now 2019 CL perceived now that we have some other releases out? Seems to sell well yet. Wishing I had held onto my psa 10 BL Topps Chrome Gold a few more weeks :(

Topps Now 2019 is his first card, limited to 178. extremely hard to find now.

Then the sticker ( first version)

Saphire is a second/third year card (2021) .

I have a bunch of Haalands being graded right now, but after watching the game today I knew these were all sitting at my LCS and had to go grab them, traded a bunch of Trae Young stuff for them.

You've got it backwards. The darker background were the [URL="https://youtu.be/YNotfAT5S9g?t=104"]1st prints found in packs[/URL], the lighter background are the 2nd prints.

I see two #11s listed on eBay right now...

One for $50,000, and one for $57,000! :eek:

They are extremely hard to find now. So maybe thats the reason. but those prices are insane :D.

So if I have 20 of them, am I finally a millionaire? :eek:

[QUOTE=mwheeler27;17021895]So if I have 20 of them, am I finally a millionaire? :eek:[/QUOTE]

YES :D. You are

i am not kidding. This is his first ever card, if he makes it this is going to be his iconic card.

The masses, meaning how value will be judged, will never see it like that my friend. Look a few posts up and see what the PSA label says on the Sapphire. 2019.

Purists will likely be after some of the other cards mentioned(Now, Finest etc.), but as long as that red and white label says 2019, that'll be all that'll matter(not saying it'll be his most valuable card...I tend to think that'll be his bund as far as mass produced goes).

If the label says 2019, then thats stupid of PSA, the card is released in 2021.

Cant believe this stupidity.

I don’t see a Sapphire label that says 2021.

Also if lebron played for another NBA team prior to cavs, do the masses still take the second teams card?

This card is already iconic. Just look at it.

I think it will be THE one.

Hrm? Raj3sh said it was a 2021 card. I said the PSA label says it's a 2019 card(even though it came out at the end of 2020...). Was just letting him know that the red & white says 2019, that's what the masses will follow. :)!
