Card of the Day: Bobby Bonilla 2001 Topps Limited Edition #709

Futera To Launch Limited Edition Memorabilia Card Presentation Sets

Futera is one of those card companies I wish collectors in the United States would pay more attention to.  This company makes some awesome looking cards.  Here in the U.S., we have new card products coming out all the time.  Futera is the total opposite.  They produce a handful of high-quality card sets each year.

The collector services that Futera offers is incredible.  Every time I talk about this company, I have to mention their Code for Collectors and Memorabilia Colour Grading services.  Code for Collectors enables you to see the detailed process of how your favorite memorabilia card came to be.  Memorabilia Colour Grading is a service in which you can use to tell how many 1-color, 2-color, 3-color, etc… relic cards were made of a specific card.  This is very helpful when it comes to cracking down on fake patches.  U.S. collectors would love to have services such as these.

Futera is preparing to launch it’s latest round of products.  This time its all about a series of Limited Edition Memorabilia Card Presentation Sets.

  • There is a total of (10) quality football (soccer) memorabilia cards in each set, comprising a complete 9-player memorabilia card set plus an ultra-rare centerpiece memorabilia card of one of the featured players.
  • The release features game-used and training-used memorabilia – information about the player’s memorabilia is written on the back of the card.
  • Every card features a 24ct gold-plated element framing the player’s memorabilia.
  • Each card is individually foil numbered and has a unique security code.
  • Enter card codes on the FUTERA APP to digitally sort and store the cards in an online Card Album and get information about the rarity and features of each card and Portfolio/card values based on actual card sales (powered by PriceGuide.cards).  These are free information services active shortly after the launch.

Manchester City FC (10 sets), Liverpool FC (29 sets for each title), and World Football (27 sets for each title) cover this new product.  Each set cost $499.  According to Futera, the Liverpool FC sets are completely sold out already.  Sets should start shipping near the end of the month.

“Pin-Up” of the Week: 2014 NFL Draft Limited Edition Puzzle Pin

 photo 2014nfldraftpin_zps63b03c1e.jpg

Fans attending the 2014 NFL Draft are provided with all kinds of goodies.  One of these giveaways is a limited edition puzzle pin you’ll find in your gift bag.  Each day of the Draft will bring a new piece of the puzzle.  Its one of the ways to keep people coming back for more.  From what I’m seeing, these pins and the promos from the card companies are probably some of the better stuff to find.  These pins have been selling for $20.00 a piece.

It wasn’t a surprise that the Texans took Jadeveon Clowney as their first pick.  I was surprised that Johnny Manziel had to wait so long to get picked.  The Browns got him as their #22 pick.  I think TRISTAR needs to get Johnny Football to sign autographs during the National this year.  The National is in Cleveland.  Johnny Football plays for Cleveland.  MAKE IT HAPPEN!  He’d probably be one of the most expensive to get even though he hasn’t played an NFL game yet.
