1992 Wild Card Football Forum

Was curious about the Surprise Cards of this set (#1, #251, #NNO) and wondered what you got for redeeming them? I know the 1991 ones got you Rocket Ismail or a 10-card Super Bowl set, and I don't remember if the 1993 one could be redeemed before the company went out of business.

I have a "Possible" answer for you.  Don't know if this is "THE" answer, but I have a 1992 Wild Card card #1, w/ #5 stripe and Gold logo that is Todd Lyght.  It is in a sealed cellophane pkg and don't know the origin.

While cleaning up the promos of this set, I found my answer to this question from last year.

Surprise Card #1 got you a cello pack containing the #P-1 Barry Sanders Stat Smashers foil card, a Red Hot Rookie insert, a Field Force insert and either a Silver or Gold parallel Field Force insert.

Surprise Card #251 got you a cello pack containing the #P-2 Emmitt Smith Stat Smashers foil card, a Red Hot Rookie insert, a Field Force insert and either a Silver or Gold parallel Field Force insert.

This is a clip from a post of mine from nearly three years ago which bears repeating, if you're cleaning up 1992 Wild Card NFL.  It was part of the forum thread titled "1991 Wild Card Draft Surprise Card #5":

* That "Class Back Attack" insert set (listed under the NFL product) was actually distributed in the WLAF boxes, well, at least the first four cards were.  The single "Surprise Card" found in WLAF boxes (similar to the NCAA BKB one above, in this thread) was a redemption for the fifth card in that set - #SP5 David Klingler.  Note the "Hot Rookie" logo in the football icon, which is different from the other four

...I don't know if I submitted an IR back then, as I was fairly new to the site at the time, but I can do it now if need be.

Is this standalone Surprise Card 1 the Klingler redemption one that belongs over there?

I can submit an IR to have Admin move the set over there

Yes, that is the one.  The surprise card's design mimics the RHR set & the Klingler redeemed card (SP5) has the RHR football logo, but with the "postmark" WLAF design frame.
