Getting it right takes time

Release is/was scheduled for Late February. We still have 5 fighters who have not returned their signatures.
We could release it right now with redemptions (THAT SUCKS!) OR we could hold it another week or so to get most of these in to have no redemptions!

Everyone wants ON CARD autographs and no redemptions. To do both these, dates are gonna have to be flexible...

Trust me. It will be fully ready asap and perfect as planned.

Thanks for your patience.

so now that its scheduled for the 4th of march, can i say 100% sure that will be the day? Are you scheduled for sure to have the autos back from those fighters and ready to be packaged out by then? just want to know so i dont have to make anymore excuses. Trust me im all about not having any redemptions, just hate when release dates change so much.

thanks

I dont know whose release dates you are using, but we have NEVER set hard dates for this product, only general dates.
Before we ever solicited it, we expected Late Jan/Early Feb.... Once we solicited it, we did so as Late February (so technically, this is the 1st release date change since we soilicited it)....

I am realistically calling this a mid-march. But, we will release immediately when the last signatures arrive...It will be march no matter what...

Please do not trust other sources for release dates. We never had todays date, nor March 4th as dates....

Any hints to who hasn't returned their cards yet. Some big names?

As long as its for on-card, I'm all for waiting.

Can we get a list of autos in the set BG? Really looking forward to see all the signers.

Hogan is going to be big pull.
Is Foreman signing for it? or Norton, Frazier, Wepner.

Thankfully, all big cards are on card and in hand!!!!!!
It is frankly 5 different Muhammad Ali Opponenets...

As a person who read operation bullpen is safe to say you left Chuck Wepner off the checklist right? That jerk dont deserve to be in an Ali product after all the fake Alis he helped sell.

Might be a stupid question but, what are the "bad" hits in the product?

From what I've seen so far, it seems as though some of the Ali opponents will be the lower end autos. The "fans" and "associates" we've seen have all been awesome. This product really has me excited.

lol. I would have sent you an auto'd Rice University Graduation Day booklet. My ex-girlfriend had a brother graduate from Rice on the same day as one of the Georges (he has multiple sons named George).

You could have made it into a 1/1 cut - totally free to you and was signed IP for my GF at the time (with pic).

can't wait this is going to be a fun ass rip

Gotta admit I'm psyched for the Leaf Ali Series. I have 6 boxes coming. All indications are that BG has done a nice job marketing this and showing excellent samples. My only fear, that can happen with any product, is the unknown. I hope Leaf Ali is not watered down with common opponent signatures and highly SP'd star autos. Any kind of checklist by now would help.

Fingers crossed,
