Is this card for real?!?! Or is it a digital card? I have never seen anything like this before. Interesting.

Yes, appears to be real. Tiny swatches of jersey - hardly recognizable. And, I just re-formatted the name and Teams to fit everything. (Admin has given his permission on these types of cards to forego some of the guidelines in an effort to be more accurate.)
Important part - now all the names and teams are linked.

I think I'd feel let down if I pulled this card. Hopefully you get a magnifying glass with it.

At least they're color swatches... imagine if they were all white :)

Ohh, that would mess with my OCD. I keep track of multiplayer cards by how many people appear on the card, but I don't know if I should count it for all the Jersey pieces, or just the two players pictured. I'll probably never get it, so I won't have to decide, but it's quite a conundrum. Perhaps doing it like I do on the Cardboard History Gallery, where all multiplayer cards are in one album, is better than my Excel file where it's broken out by the number of people.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

So I found out a bit more about these lil diddies!! It is an ePack exclusive to the 25 people who throw away enough money to collect all of a certain online jersey set and then redeem them for these. There are supposedly four total versions of the card you can redeem so I assume the colors. UD ePack to me is not card collecting it is just like gambling as you want nothing BUT the hit, unlike a hobby box where you actually GET everything you rip. I know you can get all your cards through ePack as well but just seems kooky to me, btw the guys on twitter say mailing date for ePack is up to August 6th as of yesterday. LOL Anything you want for real will not be mailed until August 6th, due to C19 of course but still, help out a brick n mortar people!!!!

Would a release note on the origin of this card be helpful here?

WOW! I just checked that site out and you aren't kidding.....who has that kind of disposable cash for virtual cards????? That's way worse than the eTopps idea so long ago....

So, are you saying these cards won't be mailed until August but we have images of them? Sounds like mockups then.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |
