These are terrible looking. Gif fits perfectly (either one).

Breakers buy anything. It's a license for the card companies to print money.

"Museum of Mahomes"
Wild Card haunts and now dinos
Topps 2024 nonsense
Leaf, Sage
Bowman bogus

We'll probably see even more unlicensed companies if things continue.

Even Topps is doing this, they are coming out with some kind of moon themed cards. Topps producing release, after release, with every kind of theme they can think of

Not sure why they keep continuing with this theme, it's awful.

Opening this product on purpose -

Imagine going to a movie theater to see Slam Dunk Ernest and paying full price for Tickets, Popcorn, Drink, and Candy for the family to the tune of $100+ dollars.

You knew it was going to be so bad...yet you still did it.

'cuz we all know; the Mesozoic period and football, go GREAT, together!?!

"To each, his own", they say. I'll go one further, and say, this: you better really love yourself some unlicensed, esthetically-absurd sport cards, and/or....enjoy lighting your hard-earned money on fire, or else; you have delusions of grandeur of ever even remotely,..."hittin' a dub"(financially-speaking)...on this,...stuff!

I can't say I hate the concept, but what's up with the pastel colors? Also, this would be a great set to market to kids (I mean, what 5-10 year old boy isn't going to love dinosaur stuff??), but even at the 99 dollars a box it is now it's way overpriced for what you get and that puts it outside of the kid wanting dinosaur football cards price range. "A" for concept, D+ for the execution.

I bought a guy out of his football cards. They were mostly the 2024 version or whatever. He took a bath on it I am certain, but I have made so much off of it. Easily doubled my money in about a week. Now just waiting as it keeps rolling in. People buy because it is low numbered. Not my thing, but I will sell whatever if it makes me some money.

There is truth to your statement, I will flip almost anything, and have made a lot of money on Wild Card and Leaf, but it's got to be a product I like in the first place to shell out my money and this stuff looks nuts (in a bad way)
In my opinion, Wild Card has gone down hill. They started out as a product that had lots of Auto hits in it, lots of autos, and low #'d ones. Now, if you read the odds in the emails they send out, it has terms like 'Autos fall 1 out of every 2 boxes'. That's not good enough for me to buy these anymore to rip and re-sell.

Now they are just making release, after release instead of focusing on higher quality releases, and lesser of them they are just making set after set. But to be fair, Topps is doing the same thing now with it's non licensed stuff(and charging lots more)

From a look test, Wild Card can make some decent looking cards like the ones here in my post. If these same cards said they word 'Panini' on them (or even Topps), people would be buying them up. But to just throw dinosaurs as a theme on there? Yuk. I predict that they don't do well with them and re think their releases

NGL, I have had an up-close look at some of their cards (cough, cough) I bought a discounted hobby box of the recently released 2025 Wild Card Metallix Pro-Look Football (yeah, I know, I know), and damn if they don't look half-way decent, like the ones you posted above, FCG.

It also helps that I pulled a low numbered (#3/3) blue color match auto of Bryce Underwood from the box, so maybe I'm a bit biased. Heck, I may buy another box or two, I enjoyed them for the price point.

The dinosaurs, halloween, other goofy background parallels, WC puts out though, those are junk.
