Looks pretty good I will be interested

p.thomaston · 12-20-2012, 10:13 AM

I'm all about it, have a huge weakness for Bo Jackson in an Auburn uni...

GA0 · 12-20-2012, 10:14 AM

Taking old fleer designs and killing them with college players. Taking the great autographics set and turning it into a sticker auto set with .50 autos. Wow. Watch this product get super dooper overhyped because of the pmgs anyway. Hopefully the football forums don't turn into the basketball forums when this product drops. Lol.

I'm with you Parker! Maybe Sullivan will be in the set. Or a dual Rocker brothers auto card.

cadillac540 · 12-20-2012, 10:22 AM

If Josh Freemans in this I'll pick up a PMG and maybe a Jambalaya. If not, ehh...

The original football set was pretty crappy. Basketball is and was popular. Those PMG in football sometimes can be had for under $2 each.

I'm not really feeling this

Fraser9698 · 12-20-2012, 10:28 AM

When is release? I like it.

What show did you do w8lifter?

BoJackCards · 12-20-2012, 10:30 AM

There better be a Bo Jackson Jambalaya or UD should give up the NCAA license!!!!

freethrowtommy · 12-20-2012, 10:31 AM

I dig that Hot Hands insert of Rodgers!

Hopefully, they include some Jordy Nelson in here as well... but somehow, I doubt it.

These cards were RED HOT for basketball... I am not sure they will get the same kind of love for football, but who knows?

Clarka3 · 12-20-2012, 10:32 AM

i have heard the price point is going to be ridiculously high for this product. can't remember where I read it, but it was here.

I don't recall completely, but I think basketball was $200-$250 on intro, and is almost $500 per box now. I believe it got up to over $700 at one point.

I can't see this doing the same jump, but the intro price will probably be on par.

Stickers and college unis

Its definitely an expensive product. I think $350 for a 10 pack box was the MSRP. Not going to be as crazy as the basketball... but I think the RC PMGs will bring big money initially.

Clarka3 · 12-20-2012, 10:38 AM

i remember part of that conversation mentioning that football isn't nearly as popular as basketball worldwide. That's why BB gets the price hike. Football doesn't have the same hobby love worldwide, so they will probably have to cut the price to sell the things.

Don't you get me dreaming Matt, that would be AMAZING. For now I'll have to settle for this old Sullivan, get with it UD!!!

Thanks bro. I'm gonna have to have shoulder surgery in 2013 so that's gonna set me back a bit. I know you feel though. I hate the feeling of getting small

TheHelmutt · 12-20-2012, 11:08 AM

I'll be picking up Packers singles for sure. I really like the retro Rookie Sensations and Autographics. No bad at all, imo. Nostalgia of my first years collecting

Bigbadbloom · 12-20-2012, 12:00 PM

meh, I have never understood the draw of inserts. PMGs could be nice, but I don't collect college fortunately

Zacy87 · 12-20-2012, 12:24 PM

I think this will be much better for collectors and not so much with people looking to make $

doubledribble · 12-20-2012, 02:38 PM

loving the autographics and jamalaya. i was hoping this would start out like basketball which i believe was sub $300/box at presell.
