Topps
? cards

The Lost Rookies returns for a fifth series. Classic Rookie Cards that never got made… until now. Celebrating the debut season in the UEFA Champions League of the biggest stars in world football, past and present.
A new Rookie Card released every week on a vintage Topps design from the same season as when the player debuted in the competition. Cards are priced at £8.99/€9.99 each. There are discounts for larger orders - 5 cards for £29.99; 10 cards for £54.99 and 20 cards for £88.99 (£4.45 per card).
Look out for numbered parallels included with lucky orders of base cards # to 1, # to 5, # to 10, # to 25, # to 49 and 99. Any autograph cards for 'Lost Rookie' subjects are sold separately. This product is printed to order. There will be a one-week sale period, after which they will collate all orders and then begin printing!
The Fabrizio Ravanelli autograph cards are only available on the Topps Italia website, cards numbered to 25 are priced at €100.00 each, cards numbered to 10 are €150.00 each, cards numbered to 5 are €250.00 each and the 1/1 card is €600.00. I can't find the print runs for these, they don't seem to be available on Topps' website.

Topps - Liverpool Team Set 2024/25


2024-25
Liverpool Team Set 2024/25
Topps
50 base cards

Topps tells us that one of the most sought-after chase cards in this release is the Pathway insert. Limited to just 1 in 2 cases, these cards are a nod to the journey of Liverpool legends.The Pathway cards showcase the progression of a player’s Liverpool career, from their early days to their rise to greatness. The design captures a sense of evolution, depicting three images of the player: a youthful shot, a celebratory moment, and a final, mature representation of their legendary status.Keep your eyes peeled for legends of the game in this subset, such as Steven Gerrard, Ian Rush, and Sir Kenny Dalglish.
The Rainbow Flick card takes the slow reveal of case hits on box breaks to a new level, with it’s eye-catching, colourful design. A case hit featuring 30 different subjects, both past and present, the Rainbow Flick card takes its inspiration from the iconic football skill: the rainbow flick.The design emphasizes the player in motion, often showing the fluidity of the skill with rainbow colours splashing across the card. There are some of the best showstoppers of all time to collect in this set, including Mohamed Salah, Fernando Torres, and Luis Suárez; not forgetting two of Liverpool’s most exciting young talents of today, rookies Trey Nyoni and Jayden Danns.
The 1797 Coat of Arms insert is the pinnacle of the set in terms of rarity. These 1/1 cards feature a unique design inspired by the 1797 Liverpool coat of arms.The checklist of 10 Liverpool greats, including the highly rated rookie, Jayden Danns who will be hoping he can reach a similar status, are as follows: Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fernando Torres, Michael Owen, Sir Kenny Dalglish, Luis Suárez, Darwin Núñez, and Mohamed Salah. 
In addition to the base card autographs, there are several other variations to chase; the Anfield Beat Autograph and Bona Fide Baller Autographs. However, for those who prefer to collect physical pieces of history, the Relics and Autograph Relics provide an exciting opportunity. The Anfield Beat Relics feature a piece of memorabilia from a match-worn kit, providing a tangible connection to the players. The relic pieces contained in the Jayden Danns Anfield Beat Relic card AND the one-of-one My Club Autograph Relic card are cut from the actual match-worn jersey from the 2023/24 League Cup final game in which Liverpool defeated Chelsea 1-0.
The My Club Autograph Relics, as mentioned above, are the standout offering. The Liverpool Team Set in 2024/25 offers 19 different auto relic subjects, each with a relic piece taken from the Liverpool crest, and an autograph sticker. Each My Club Autograph Relic is a one-of-one and comes with gilded gold foil edges, adding a layer of luxury and rarity.
Boxes are priced at £55.00 each.

Odhams Press / Robin
6 transfers

While looking for something recently I came across this photo that I downloaded from a comic auction site a long time ago. Robin was a children's comic published from 1953 to 1969 and was billed as a companion to Eagle, Girl and Swift, all published by Odhams Press. I am on the lookout for better quality scans but these will have to do for the time being.

SoccerStarz - 2024/25 Match of the Day magazine Exclusive Gold Figures


2024-25
SoccerStarz Match of the Day magazine Exclusive Gold Figures
SoccerStarz
2 figures

I don't collect these figures, though I used to collect the Corinthian ProStars when they use to include cards, but I thought I would include these two as they were given away with issue number 717 of Match of the Day magazine. I have also included scans of the double-page advert for the SoccerStarz figures.
