120 base cards

More news from Futera on the upcoming World Football Unique 2018 collection. They will be releasing a small App as a free add-on digital storage album and card information service which will reach further collectors/markets not accommodated to date, and as a result, have slightly increased the release quantity to 240 cases. In fact, the rarity (print runs) of all the Memorabilia/Autograph inserts remains the same as listed on the original sales sheet and they will be adding more of the top-end cards (particularly more ‘1 of 1’s) to enable the uplift, which will be to the benefit of all collectors. It is important to Futera that with each release collectors can enjoy strong rarity values, and you’ll see from below that this Collection provides greater variety and rarity for collectors than ever before. It’s been a long time in the making, and there are still specialist finishing processes to complete, but Futera are aiming for a late July release
