Didnt see this anywhere...but OMG i can not wait

Oooooh so we get the terrible artwork instead of an HBK? Sign me up. "Legendary sets"? Please.

hahaha took the words right out of my mouth.

Of the original signers on the sell sheet i am only interested in Jake the Snake. Unless it has a Demolition auto I will probably be staying away. Legends autos are awesome but most of these guys have autos in other sets with much more attractive looking cards.

The thing I don't like about it is that there is one hot box per case and its marked. These boxes are sure to be more expensive than the others. If they didn't mark them hot box I would be on board but they had to ruin it.

They did it with football to. The purple presmatic box or whatever it was called had the sticker on the box and everything. Not sure why they thought that was a good idea. Maybe so they knew each case had one.

so the hot box will have 5 autos of the same person just different parallels???

[gambra]

No you'll get 5 different autos but each card will be at the same parallel level. Like all will be /1 or /50.

[geoffyb]

ok that makes better sense.

Here is some new information I don't think has been shared yet.

2012 Leaf Originals Wrestling



Due to an unexpected contractual obligation, Shawn Michaels will no longer be appearing in this release.



In his place, we are excited to announce TWO product improvements:



1> In lieu of Michaels autographs, these cards will be replaced by redemption cards for the ORIGINAL 5X7 PENCIL ARTWORK used to make these cards! Rarely will collectors have the chance to own the original artwork that resulted in one of a sport's most legendary sets.



2> We are pleased to announce HOT BOXES (specially marked). These HOT BOXES will fall at a rate of 1 per case!

Hot Boxes will feature ALL 5 AUTOGRAPHS from a single Parallel Level (numbered as low as 1/1)…

I don't know what is worse the "artwork" replacing the autograph or the fact that they will LABEL hot boxes. Why not just label the packs that have autographs in them then?

I guess the rest of the autograph list is going to be awful too since there haven't been any more details on that.

in everyone's opinion what would be awful autos to pull? we buy wwe boxes for $40 and pull a r-truth and think we do ok when a product first launches. if this is all classic or legend guys i can't imagine the checklist would be too awful at just $80 a box with 5 autos.
you might as well count out current wwe stars bc they are under contract.

I saw a picture online of Vader signing autographs for this set. Would love to pull that one in one of my boxes.

How about Mikey Whipwreck, Eric Watts, or Paul Roma. Surely if people like that are in there we might be seeing some junk.
