Topps - Match Attax England 2010 / World Stars 2010 (20) - Autograph Cards


2010
Match Attax - England 2010
Topps
249 base cards

When the collection was originally released Topps announced a number of autographed cards would be given as prizes in various online competitions. Official Topps autograph cards always carry an official Topps holographic sticker attached, usually to the front, that includes a unique number and is used as a certificate of authenticity. A little while ago a collector left a comment regarding these cards but when I tried to contact him the e-mail bounced. Here is a list of all the cards that I originally had, plus those supplied by the collector who provided the comment and a few others I've found while carrying out a some research.
UPDATE (25-11-2024 12:00):  A collector has provided photos of 11 cards from his collection, I'll let him explain:
In 2010 I attended the Tesco legend promotional event where they gave out Match Attax autograph cards of signed football legends inside lucky Match Attax world cup 2010 packets at the event. I have a variety of photos of various cards that I pulled in the promotional packs that where available on the night. Topps representatives even confirmed on the night that certain legend autographs including Maradona, Pele, Cruyff, Eusebio and more were included in normal Match Attax world cup 2010 packs. I have every autograph with the Topps authentic hologram which i have kept since I got them. I recently seen your post on the 2010 set and would like to send you photos of the cards so you are able to update them on your website.
The partnership between Topps and Tesco, one of UK's biggest supermarkets, had to be something special and they originally had three signers Peter Shilton, Frank Lampard and Aaron Lennon, but with it being the World Cup, Tesco and Topps wanted to make it even more special and had the greatest players sign their cards, which were inserted in Tesco exclusive packs at the promotional event and in Tesco exclusive packs in their stores. Diego Maradona, Johan Cruyff, Paul Gascoinge and Zinedine Zidane were the main players for Tesco on the Starter Packs. Even on the back of the Match Attax Tesco exclusive packs it says 'Look out for a lucky packet with an autograph card'. It stated this as Tesco and Topps had a variety of legend autographs inserted in Tesco packets.

    These are all fake (except lampard lennon shilton and ballack). These cards never existed its a fake signature with a stuck on hologram. None of these players ever signed a match attax card in 2010 or ever. Some werent even alive. These are a scam

      I don't know for sure, but I don't think any of them were dead in 2010.

    This set is one of the rarest sets in the world. The value is going to sky rocket. Match attax 2010 world cup autographs are super rare to get in packs

    This is a absolute super cool autograph set that was released by Topps in 2010. The Tesco parentship is something we don't see any more. The last time Tesco and Topps had a parentship after the 2010 set was with the platinum Kante autograph card that was again only available in exclusive packs in Tesco. I still remember going to one of the Tesco and Topps events back in 2010 and there was barely anyone there but those that were got some big name autographs like Messi, Ronaldo and even Maradona which I pulled in packs in 2010. I have been buying and trading Match Attax for several years and been a regular at every swap and play tour and I can say that the 2010 set is in a different league and is so prestigious. I am always looking to add to my collection and on eBay I recently decided to buy a booster box of Tesco Match Attax 2010 which have the exclusive packs and I am so glad I did as I packed a Lionel Messi 100 Club Autograph and a Pele International Master Autograph card again so it just goes to show that there are plenty of autographs still in the Tesco exclusive packs.

      Hi Richard,

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts and your experiences with this collection. I still can't understand why some collectors think some of these cards are fake.

      I hope you are keeping well,
      Cheers, Alan

      They are the same people that came into the hobby after 2021 and were saying that Match Attax are a kid game. Those wannabe collectors were shocekd once their next big rookie investment was no good like Ansu Fati or Mason Greenwood. I collect sets and Match Attax is nostagic and is on the same level as pokemon. Match Attax are alot of peoples childhood like my sons and what i would say is that autograph match attax cards are extremly hard to pull almost impossible and even now match attax autograph cards are demanding a high fee on Ebay. People know the rarity but I just find them uneducated on Match Attax. Even on my Youtube channel I get comments but the thing was I am a adult collector and I was able to buy Match Attax cards on Ebay and I was getting alot of comments just for collecting but I am glad I kept buying as you barely see the 2010 set as there all part of collectors sets.

      Hi Richard, Totally agree with everything you've said. There has been so much hype over who is the next new rookie that's going to rule the world. I've been collecting football cards off and on for over 60 years and I have never had any interest in the investing side of the hobby, I'm just a collector. When I kick the bucket my collection will either go in the bin or be dumped at a local charity shop!

      Long term sets like the Match Attax world cup 2010 will be one of the best investments and thats because its the set itself. Alan I have sent you a email and if you can get back to me I would appreciate it. Cheers
