It is interesting how some
companies release certain products like clockwork; In December 2010 Press Pass
introduced 2011 Five Star Racing, a seriously high-end product ($500/5 cards). In
December 2011 they introduced 2012 Total Memorabilia Racing, a mid to high-end
product ($125/5 packs/9 cards per pack/5 hits) that replaced Five Star Racing.
Now in December 2012 they have released previews of 2013 Total Memorabilia (@$125/5
packs/9 cards per pack/5 hits).
It seems as though Press Pass is
satisfied with how last year’s product went because this year’s release is
almost identical in description. The price has not been announced but figure it
will be around the same $125/box price. The pack out is the same with 5 packs
per box, 9 cards per pack and 1 hit per pack.
Going down the line with the hits,
the Rising Stars autographs return, though a very different design, the auto-relic
booklets return, with a slightly different design, and Hot Rod Relics is
replacing the Total Memorabilia relics. Added to the mix is the Burning Rubber
Chase Edition relic, which contains a race used tire relic from a Chase For the
Cup race.
Overall I prefer last year’s
designs over this year’s designs, the layout on some of the cards just do not
grab me like they did last year.
