Upper Deck Kicks Off the 2008 NFL Season with Supreme Content in SPx Football
Sought after rookie autographed triple memorabilia cards, falling one per box, ignite this electrifying release
North Las Vegas, NV (August 15, 2008) – With the NFL’s pre-season well underway, rookies and veterans alike are getting their fair share of playing time on the gridiron as well as inside Upper Deck’s 2008 NFL SPx launch. The combination of coveted signatures from this year’s top rookies and superb content from gridiron veterans makes this product a smash hit from top to bottom. Hobbyists will not be disappointed with the box content of NFL SPx, which includes the following: one “Rookie Signature Triple Memorabilia” card; an additional two signature cards; seven foil-numbered memorabilia cards, which consist of up to three patch or multi-swatch memorabilia cards. Unique die cuts and Light FX technology make these stunning cards the must-have set of the year!
Some of the most highly anticipated rookies including Matt Ryan, Jake Long, Darren McFadden, DeSean Jackson, Chad Henne, Rashard Mendenhall, Felix Jones and James Hardy are featured, helping to create a buzz surrounding the fresh start of the new season. Also included are cards showcasing some of the league’s biggest talents including “Signature Supremacy” autographed inserts from the likes of LaDainian Tomlinson, Tom Brady, Tony Romo, Wes Welker and even reigning Defensive Player of the Year, Bob Sanders. You’ll also find signed cards from retired greats like Y.A. Tittle and Emmitt Smith.
On top of the already enriched box break, each case of 2008 NFL SPx also includes a special “1-of-1” moments card, featuring highlights and moments from top NFL stars. Some of these historic moments include Adrian Peterson’s single-game rushing record of 296 yards, which he set against the Chargers on Nov. 4, 2007 and a card commemorating Joe Montana’s induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000.
“SPx is consistently one of the most popular football releases in the industry, and this year should be no different,” said Brandon Miller, Upper Deck’s Football brand manager. “We’re excited to release this standout product that showcases cutting edge technology with top-line content covering a full spectrum of stars from the 2008 rookie class to some of the greatest legends of all time.”
Upper Deck’s 2008 SPx Football release carries a suggested retail price of $19.99 per three-card pack, with 10 packs per box. The product is available in stores now.
