Default Question?

I just received this team, does anyone else have it? Just wondering why the Cardinals would have a W one the helmet? The bag is sealed so I dont understand how this could be not right.
Thanks

Default Can I propose something?

Looks like the "Rebel Alliance" symbol from Star Wars...I have no clue what happened here. It is suppose to be a Cardinal, but on some of them it looks like a Cardinal that has been shot out of the air and is falling to earth....

That is the way the Haiti Cards looked from the Tudor. I think it supposed to look like a bird in flight.

Default Warning!

Fellas,

I know I don't know everything,but I rember what the teams looked like back in the day! I have one of those old Tudor order forms with the pictures of the teams on them! I've noticed a lot of teams for sale on ebay and else where and I've seen some for sale at conventions. Some of these teams are repainted or given a mysterious paint job in order to catch those of us who collect and are serious about this hobby. PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU PAY FOR! SOME OF THESE ITEMS ARE FALSE. I rember that Cardinal figure had an obscure ball with a tail. It looked like a Minnesota Viking symbol almost. I'm sure of this because I'm looking at my originals right now. Just be careful?

almost like clockwork, when a new country got the contract to do tudor teams, the first several batches ALWAYS had mistakes. since haiti Black Shoe teams were a 2 yr wonder, they have the most mistakes, as teams would arrive to america, it was too late to correct them, so tudor just sold them. i imagine there arent a whole lot of cards that are correct, as most mistakes were fixed, and by the time the blacksho became the whiteshoe, it was remedied.
its always facinated me by the tudor history of their paintjobs, especially the rare/mistake paintjobs.

blk helmet saints
RED/WHITE/BLUE stripe helmet cowboys
blue helmet/jersey vikes etc etc

Default Thanks guys

I had a feeling they were the real deal. I purchased them in a sealed bag.
That is why I come to you guys for help.
Would anyone be willing to take pictures of the there teams for me to put up on my web page? I have a few, but I would love to show all of the different types.
Chris
