2015-2016 Leaf/ITG Ultimate

I noticed all the new cards that were pulled going up on E-bay.

Some really nice cards and mostly ughhhh...

Why bother including a full shot of a player, when at the same time you airbrush half the card off?

It makes me mad. At least design the card so you can use less card and more memorabilia.

I always was fond of the Ultimate Journeys. After seeing the cards released today. I feel sad. Even though the game used pieces are real...brushing off logos to conform sucks.

Great ideas...sucks to only have one company dictate everything.

Valid discussion. Many times we will use a close up shot
To mask the logo less image. However, this terribly limits
Design possibilities. One of the issues with old ITG. Isn't that conforming
In a way to not be held captive to the non logo situation?
Enshrined will use more head and torso shots. Using
Larger memorabilia would be nice, but this isn't cheap memorabilia
We are using.

We. As a hobby. Everyone involved. Need more than one company.

I know there is a lot collectors, hobbyists online. How do we reach the NHL and let them know we need more than one company creating WHAT I WANT? I am not certainly buying, but I will if limitations are lifted.

I started off OPC, Score, Topps...a long time ago Upper Deck was only for the rich children.

We NEED more companies making hockey cards.

Leaf doesn't seem to make an effort to cover the logo-less jerseys. They just say they don't want to use head shots. But if they could put a design element, or the memorabilia/signature over the part where the logo was airburushed off it would make the cards much nicer. They don't seem interested in that.

We actually do try for a balance of designs and
Ways to hide the logo less jersey. Sometimes it just
Really takes away from the card to keep putting
Swatches over the players chest. Enshrined will
Have more designs that do mask the no logo.
Trying for a happy medium
