Sure it can. If he signed stickers prior to signing his WWE contract then the contract doesn't come into play. Or if his special contract allows him to do things like this (sign stickers), then it's a non-issue as well. Notice he's still able to advertise on his trunks, very few dates on his contract, etc.? No telling what all special stipulations he's got in his contract. Moot point if he signed the stickers prior to signing with WWE again though.

If it was Lesner Leaf would be hyping the hell out of it. Willing to bet it will be a let down...

Rose is also on the sales sheet.

[Tylerg30]

Leaf has no reason to let loose the secret of the sticker auto now, since the product has been sold out for awhile and they have no need to promote it. Hence the reason there is no checklist when the product is all packed out. If you look on Twitter, there is about 20 wrestlers who are gonna be the sticker auto because "I heard it from a close source", I think it's hilarious! No matter who they would announce it is, there would be people now who wouldn't like it. There's been enough bad publicity with this product, they don't need anymore.

[booyahlaw]

So when is this expected to drop in the shops?

[Tylerg30]

Not sure if it's the same for the shops, depends on when they get their product, but Blowout told me this morning they plan to ship them out Friday, barring any delays from the hurricane.

[pnft17]

Yeah, this stuff is coming out and here on east coast were getting a hurricane just to delay things more.

[sdoug76]

Live at my lcs this friday...finally!

[thepick88]

I was told it will ship Wednesday so we shall see..I ordered other boxes with this crap almost 6 months ago so I will have a crapload of stuff to open when I get them all in!

[pnft17]

Maybe we will see some early breaks go down tomorrow, distributers should have in hand.

[Brobocop]

God I hope this is a good set for all of those who have money in this product since May/June. I wish they would release a checklist already or preview some of the cards on their website.

[sdoug76]

Tweeted them a few times, people had money tied up in this since June/July least they could do is release the damn checklist. Does Gray not come and here anymore?

[Zoop]

I got sick of waiting so I canceled my orders in September after the "final" delay. Still got $300 tied up in group breaks though.

[Ty Hope]

I have 4 boxes coming, one is a hot box.

How do you know you got a hot box?

I also have several boxes tied up in this and had my pre-order in 6 months ago. I sent a message to Leaf as well yesterday and got no response but one of my guys told me they were all packed and shipped except for a few places in the Northeast due to the HurriBlizzard.

The shop I go to sells hot boxes at the same price as regular ones. I reserved the hot box and he said OK. With the amount I spend there a year, its the least he can do!

[Ty Hope]

In case you didn't hear, hot boxes are marked with a sticker on the outside like other previous leaf products.

[SavageScott]

Just got off the phone with Brian from Leaf, first off, its refreshing that you can call up ask questions and get answers.

The following people will not be in the product: Shawn Michaels, Chyna, and Rocky Johnson (he said UPS lost the Rocky Johnson cards in transit).

Jimmy Hart and Rowdy Roddy Piper will be redemptions. He did mention that he has Piper's card in hand, unfortunately they arrived 2 days after the pack out.

As we know there is a mystery redemption.

Original artwork redemption cards will fall about 1 every 5 cases, sounds like there aren't that many cases out there.

He said, they will release numbers on the various ink color autographs, inscriptions, etc... But that it won't be for a little while.

Great guy for answering my questions, I cannot wait for this product to hit on Friday!

[sdoug76]

Thanks for the info! With how delayed this has been, least he could do is release the checklist and numbers on inks etc.

How long until the lost Rocky's start showing up!?!

[pnft17]

Sucks about Piper not getting cards in on time. I know they were hoping he would get them in before pack out.
I hope Rocky Johnson cards turn up somewhere and find their way back to Leaf.

I'm glad they aren't releasing ink color variation numbers for awhile. So collectors that follow the auctions close on cards can figure it out and maybe get some nice deals. Before every dealer knows and jacks up prices on rare inks right out of the gate.

[geoffyb]

Its all stuff we kinda knew already. I want a checklist

[mwheeler27]

Collectors want checklists and print runs. Sellers want checklists and print runs. There are a few, and I mean only a few, exceptions. I have never understood any logical reason for holding these two things hostage unless...
