Finally some more Jaguars!  Cool.  Gotta get my "helper" lined up now.

NHL 10 pics are up.

What exactly is Theodore doing?  Is he celebrating or throwing his arms up in disgust at something?  Disappointed that Lang is the Lemieux 1 pose, which was a huge leaner.  Iginla looks like a major leaner too.

Also, some NHL Legends chases are already on ebay.  There's a white Oilers Gretzky on there.

Also Cournoyer and Mahovolich chase are up.   

Theodore is celebrating at the end of the game.  I think that pose is from an OT win.  It's distinctly in the realm of the Thibault pose.  Cool the first time it's used, sucks the second time.

Looks like I may get the first of several Sports Picks autographed next month.  Eli Manning will be signing at a shopping mall near me soon, and I'm going to try to get him to sign a Manning Brothers 2-pack.

So has anyone else gotten any of their Sports Picks signed?

Actually I was going to try to get some ice bases signed this year (I'm an opener) but if there's no season then obviously there's no opportunity to get sigs.

Less than impressed with that lineup for series 11...what the hell's it gonna take for a Tomas Vokoun figure to get made?

 

[Morgbug]

Isn't 11 a Canadian series again?  If so, no big surprise at no Vokoun, they would want to release him in a regular lineup is my guess, so as not to overly irritate the Pred fans.

[jjks]

ahh...yes that would make sense then! Bring on wave 12 then..and there better be a #23 Jamie Allison in it!

[Holographic Elvis]

Who knows if and when we'll get a Vokoun since there is a remote chance at best we'll get any NHL lines after series 11 if this lockout keeps going. 

Super Bowl exclusive pics up now.  Really diggin the Leftwich, but hope they correct the fig so it doesn't lean since it's a reused Culpepper 1 and that leaned BIG time:

Hey if any of you guys want to get some SP trades goin, shoot me a PM or email and LMK what you have and what you're after.  I'm a loose collector myself.

The Portis/Lewis 2pak has started to hit.  Someone posted loose pics of it on the Sports Board and it looks killer.

That Leftwich looks nice but I wonder why they reused the Culpepper mold?  Is that common for them to do??

Common isn't even the word my friend.  They do it all the damn time for various reasons.  I just hope they fix the figure's stability issues.  That Culpepper 1 was a big-time leaner.

Just got my Portis/Lewis 2pak from my buddy today.  His TRU only got 1 case.

Also, NHL Legends have started to hit at Ontario Zellers stores (Canada.)  People have said the Gretzkys are 8 or 9 to a case!

I got my Portis-Lewis 2-pack earlier this week.  I still have to open it up though.

All in all, I think all of the 2-packs this year have been a lot more interesting than last year's.  Especially the NFL sets.  It's too bad they overproduced the Shaq/Yao Ming set though.  It's kept the Lebron/Carmello 2-pack from getting distributed.

I really wasn't too stoked for the NHL sets, except for Brodeur & Messier.  I mean, with the Shanahan/Blake set, just how many Avs and Red Wings players do we need in the NHL line?
