Hi Guys, Since Topps don't listen to the fans (apparently it "never occurred to them" to do a Treebeard auto card from JRD) it's probably up to us to brainstorm and even make cards of our own for when we meet the important folk. Has anyone made any or had any signed??... come forth and show off your wares

I'm sorry, but how the hell do you do those?  Awesome work, particularly Alan Lee

Jason: When I see what you have been able to get done I get upset with Topps for such a lack of creative thinking it is not funny! When you look at the 4 sets of Auto cards put out by Topps and the numerous repeat signatures and think what they could have done instead - I am just getting myself worked up into a frenzy so I am going to stop here.

WOW Jas!  I think you've missed your 'dream job' and should be working for Topps' Design department!! What's the reaction been so far when you've asked your cards to be signed by those featured on them? Do they like them? Has anyone refused to sign one of them? Your selections really are the cards which should've been done and weren't and I think our LOTR collections are the poorer because of the lack of variety and uninspired images which were chosen instead. Too late for Topps to rectify this now though!  If you do decide to design any more then please let us see them won't you? Good Luck on getting the one's you already have signed too!

I have now been privilidged to see one of these in the flesh - actually more than one  And they really are as awesome as they look, maybe I am not patient enough but I could never do these so well as these are done, the printing alone is awesome - the print is sharp and they are really well cut  move over Topps the fans have everything in hand without you
