Can somebody please help me yet again ........ now its 12-13 ITG LOL, everywhere on the planet (it seems COMC thinks differently at least) calls this series Masked Men V ............... when clearly ........................ I Know =( ............... it a 5. How should I proceed. Go easy on me I'm just stating a blatently obvious error ........ there is no V on the card anywhere. I am guessing change it as admin has stated in the past what is on the card the card rules the roost. Even ITG has it as a 5.

And to add to this .......... either refresh my memory or teach me (not sure which). ITG is an unlicensed product so no team names / logos (NHL I mean) can be used on the card photowise, and seem almost never do the team/city names show up on the fronts either, sometimes you will see the city name but the newer the sets get the stricter the rules become it seems as you do nto see them. On the backs though, the bios and/or mem descriptions will use the team name. Odd rules they have to follow obviously. My rambling does have a point. What do we do if the card has absolutely zero reference to a team other than the photo. I know I have been super sluething in the past to decipher teams but id this a waste of my time? These Masked Men cards are a great example, other than the player's name and the "picture" on the front there is nothing to go on. From this point of view the picture should now be considered for the team portion of the DB. Yes? No? .............. I am sure somebody might help. LOL

It's blatantly obvious...it's Masked Men 5. Their website, the box they came in, the cards themselves.

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

I may be wrong but the series isnt Masked Men 5; just the featured inserts. Right?

Looking for Oklahoma cards -all sports, Star Wars cards and Adrian Peterson cards.

Another fun set I see. Mask Men 5, but five is V in roman numerals :)

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project.

As a veteran ITG collector with a massive collection of two cards, I say it's a 5. Did the first four sets use Roman, and this one broke continuity? Like Super Bowl 50 broke the long tradition of Roman numerals. And the 1/1 thing is weird. UNLESS this is not the one Snow card from packs. Could the regular 1/1 card exist, and this card, technically different, also exist? Maybe it was a prize at the event. I know about the whole thing of getting cards stamped at major shows. I've had dozens done. I'm suggesting that maybe this particular card isn't one of those. Just a guess.
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

LOL thanks people!! And David with all those ITG cards I thought you'd know for sure. =) The second set ( II ) and third set ( III ) were roman numerals, the fourth set is "M4SKED MEN" and fifth of course 5. Go figure!! As for the expo thing I have no freaking clue and its a waste of energy even investigating ..... I never get a reply from an eBay seller. And if that is the case the 1 of 1 in the series is not a TRUE one of one ............ just like all those The Vault cards the have now, they are a greatest hits kind of set, re-releasing past cards with foil stamps on them and casing them. BAH. So no takers on the team name issue with these sets then? Some people have already added team names on the same pretense I have discussed, by the image used. Ask Admin you figure?

Hey David (ar all or any others) read the article in this link, the way I read it the Garth Snow 1 of 1 in 12/13 no longer exists and was replaced by the other or would the person now own both the reg 1 of 1 and the expo 1 of 1. Kind of bizarre and need help gettting it to sink in.

I would say if you can identify the uniform or if the player only played for one team then you should add the team name. I understand the view that if the team name is not on the card then you do not put it in the DB. But for team or player PC, it is important to add the team name.
As for the V or 5 I would list as a 5.
Happy hunting
