2012 WWE Heritage Autograph checklist

[dusen]

Some stuff live on the bay. There are some autos I want but I'm not crazy about this product.

[jdbuzz44]

Another Blahh Topps WWE product....Topps WWE 2010 was the only product i was excited about (even with the Non Undertaker/Jericho/HHH Auto debacle)..but they got it right with that.

High End "Case Hits"....something to chase...great auto checklist....love that set...

Man...Topps dropes the ball with their WWE releases

[kingofkings487]

The checklist on wtc isn't accurate as I seen a natalya auto on eBay n Shes not on the list on the site

[dusen]

Brought four rack packs and hit nothing exciting but I actually really like the cards.

[geoffyb]

are the cards thicker stock than normal wwe topps?

[dusen]

It's the same stock as the other heritage sets like baseball.

Just saw some autos on eBay and they are sticker and look awful.

looks like jake roberts showed up in this one--don't believe he was on the early checklist. The stickers do not look good against the colored backdrop, do they?

They look pretty awful to me. I think the relics look awful as well.

[geoffyb]

i actually think the autos look pretty good against the colored backing.

[booyahlaw]

the auto cards look very cheap to me . . . that being said, i will try to pick up the legends.

I really think that the release date being so close to the leaf wrestling drop is going to hurt this WWE set.

[geoffyb]

i think that with no one opening any of this wwe set the autos will sell for good money. much better than $5 leaf autos.

[mma138]

does lesnar have a base card in this ?

[geoffyb]

has anyone seen a single retail auto?

[geoffyb]

also, i havent seen any printing plates listed on ebay at all

So you would rather have a jake roberts sticker autograph from this set than a jake roberts on-card leaf?

actually yes. the wwe card looks so much better and just appeals more to me than a terribly drawn sketch on a mini card that doesn't even say it is certified. just my opinion though. normal sized cards with real pics win with me. after i opened my case of the leaf stuff i was left very underwhelmed even though i pulled hart, hogan, and flair. dont get me wrong the leaf stuff has key autos i added to my collection like vader, tatanka, and orndorff but sticker autos dont really bother me that much. plus i look at it like this: topps is a first rate card company with licensed products. leaf is sorta second rate with nothing being licensed.

I here ya, and respect your opinion--appearance and eye-appeal matter. i am curious to see the retail and hobby checklist of these cards.

Do you really question the authenticity of the Leaf autographs as implied? I have seen several people make note of the fact that Leaf did not expressly "certify" these autos on the card (with the exception of the language appearing on the back of the Road Warrior Animal card). However, with the amount of pictures out there of the wrestlers signing, along with the known exemplars of the wrestlers' signatures, is this really such a broad concern?

FYI--just bought a Papa Shango autograph for $3 buy it now on Ebay ($5 with shipping). Someone must have "leaf-priced" that one!

[geoffyb]

If you want to sell the shango when you get it, let me know. i bought the kama and godfather already but hadnt seen a shango yet. and yeah that price is super cheap on that one.

I don't really question the authenticity of the leaf stuff but others not in the know, unlike all of us here, may question it when reselling them. to me a lot of it has to do with the actual look of the card and i really enjoy the way the wwe autos look regardless of the stickers.

also, if you want to maybe trade the shango i just found a rosa mendes 2012 auto when i was going through some base and i dont collect any diva stuff.

Already at 93, dang I wonder what it will go for?

[geoffyb]

it looks shilled to high heaven

[pnft17]

Dam that Punk auto card is in bad shape.
Every corner looks dinged.

[golfinglegend67]

I doubt the auction is legit, if it is then I guess I'll be passing on picking up his auto from this set. Not to mention the condition is awful like pnft mentioned.

[geoffyb]

the guy is a pack searcher so he probably damaged it while searching

[booyahlaw]

punk is at $103 now, that is insane. Makes me want to go to Wal-Mart right now with a postal scale!

That was the first shango I had seen as well--I cannot believe it was listed like that. Hopefully the seller will honor the transaction. the shango was one of them I was hoping to get out of this set.
