X Factor Wrapper Mock-Up
Factory Entertainment releasing a 198 Trading Card Collection on the 27th September to coincide with the Judges Houses week*.
The series will be sold exclusively through Tesco’s stores, (yes even the small local ones) and will contain a 100 card basic set with imagery from the auditions, boot camp and featuring all the finalists, as well as two foil chase card sets of 48 cards, featuring all the winners and stars from the previous series of the show. (These will be randomly inserted but the ratio is not known at this time)
Randomly included in the collection are seeded Golden Ticket winners cards, with prizes ranging to a holiday in Los Angeles, Ipod’s and tickets to the live tour in 2011. Again no ratio is available on these golden ticket cards at the moment.
The X-Factor Trading Card Collection will retail at £0.99 (about $1.52) for a 6 Card Pack and a Starter Collectors Box with 60 Cards + 3 Exclusive cards will also be available for £6.99.
X Factor Box Mock-Up
On top of all this Factory Entertainment have revealed that they are also producing 12 promotional (Promo) cards which will be nearly imposable to obtain. These cards are being made for the final 12 contestants to use as they see fit, so good luck finding those! As aver when they come out we will split some and complete a full review. While this set may not be of interest to many typical card collectors it will certainly be bringing in droves of new fans, and clearly many new Tesco shoppers.
*(I don’t even know what that means.)
Just bought the X factor 6.99 starter pack for my 6 year old who loves X factor and got the special book to stick in the 12 cards which we will probably never get. What a joke – so there is nothing to put the rest of the cards in then. Why don’t they just do sticker books like the old days!
