2014-15 In The Game Heroes & Prospects Hockey Forum

Pretty much all the inserts in this set have a wrong name, serial numbering or numbering.

Looks like it's based on earlier years of H&P or something like it.

Even Cardboardconnection got their info wrong.

Leaf's own listing looks quite ok, although they're listing everything as "#'d to X or lower" while all the cards are just #'d to X directly on the card (as I found out trying to figure out the set a bit by browsing eBay and COMC). I think it's safe to assume we can just use SN15 for example and then adjust the cards individually if some happened to be numbered lower.

Also, when adding my own Top Prospects Game Used Patch, I realized that not only is the numbering here wrong, but Leaf themselves apparently got it wrong on the list provided on their own webpage! I've opened an inaccuracy report for this problem already.

So anyway, I don't have enough permissions yet to edit everything, but a great first step would be to remove all the "base" sets, as they don't actually exist. As an example, Top Prospects Game Used Jersey cards only have Blue, Gold, Silver and Emerald parallels. There are no non-numbered base cards that were produced! And that's the same for all the different inserts/variations in the set!

Bump.

If anyone wants a project for the weekend. :)

JFrosty entered an IR about this and I added some comments.

It might be one of those sets where it's better to wipe the whole thing out and start over. Maybe.

Good news, I went through all the set and here are my conclusions (based on the list found at the bottom of the page here):

• As we said, there are no Base at all. Even the base checklist is considered to be Blue by Leaf. We need to remove all the Base inserts.
• The Emerald parallels are from the 2015 Toronto Sport Card And Memorabilia Spring Expo, and are considered to be part of the main set. These are the ones you called Green in the IR, vroomed. I've added the missing Emerald parallels.
• Heroes Six Gold doesn't actually exist, and should be removed.
• Complete Logo (1/1) and Nameplate (#/10) don't have any parallel. We need to remove the existing ones.

I've also renamed the inserts according to Leaf's list. Many Gold and Silver parallels were inverted, as apprently the Silver ones are the 1/1s (and that works with what I can see on COMC/eBay). All very confusing.

We could also SN the inserts to what Leaf say they're to (or less) and just manually adjust the numbers if they're different, like I did with Strome's Base/Blue auto (SN50 instead of SN80). Would make it easier for people wanting to add their cards. I'll look into that when everything that doesn't actually exist is removed, because pretty much all of the SN are messed up right now (and so are the release notes)!

Also, as with any Leaf/ITG product, there's no way to know if all of the cards/parallels were ever produced, but there's nothing much we can do about it!

I hope my post was clear enough!
