Had to beat a Made To Order of your own PC player.

I am very proud of the Made To Order concept.

Many collectors were able to get the exact card they desired.

Always had my "eye" on that card, get it.

It's a beauty of a great player and a nicer man.

Don't let the little Expo icon impact your love for that card.

It was a great redemption program and you have one of the best cards of the entire program, enjoy it.

What a nightmare that was. My poor designer got a frantic email from me on the night before Release Date (naturally someone jumped the gun on eBay).

He could have heard me without the telephone, I was so upset.

But there was nothing I could do but try and make lemonaide out of lemons.

Glad you are both enjoying your Emerald Redemptions.

That set took years off my life.

Well I must agree with Sedinfan on the Mega Patch set. This is my all time favorite card and my cornerstone in the worlds largest Loob collection.



Knowing that Hakan himself has checked out my collection online makes this card so much more special :)

Perhaps a couple of more Loobs in this product Mr Price?

Cheers // Eric

Of all the little "quests" I've gone on to build sets/rainbows/etc. that one still stands as my favourite. I remember that going in expecting nothing more than a cool low-numbered jersey card. I had the package in my hand wandering through Superstore in Halifax and I couldn't wait, had to open right there. Saw the back first, 2 of 10, thought all right, turned it over and my eyes just about bugged right out of my head. May have uttered an expletive....maybe even the same one you did towards your designer but with a different context...came home got it on the scanner and the rest is history. The thread has nearly 4,000 views and pretty much everybody was in awe.

Well this is no fair. I already knew Sedinfan was going to win because I have already commented on his card before and Red Wings make for the sexiest patch cards! It's a no-brainer. The only thing that could compete is maybe 2-3 Yzermans in existance and perhaps a Bob Probert :P

My Penguin Eye likes to follow you around where ever you go.. it's kinda creepy really.

Congrats Sedinfan :D

I don't have anything super duper fancy , but I will post this one from probably the best product in the later years .



ITG made some great cards and I enjoyed busting their products ... My first ever case break was Forever Rivals and the only product I have ever pre ordered

[30ranfordfan]

This is exactly it. Pick whatever combination you like. It's one of the best concepts any manufacturer had done, ever.

Would really like to see someone bring it back.

the MTO program was something that empowered a lot of collectors to do something unique and special with their own collections. Its something that I am partly surprised has not be duplicated, but not shocked as I'm sure there is a cost aspect that ITG took (probably budgeted) in order to fulfill this program.
