I can't believe it  

I kept telling my family they would end up making these cards and they didn't believe me, well except for my brother Mikey (Zero)  

I just didn't know they would make them this soon

I'd definitely be interested to see it - I can't see many people stocking it in the UK though. Although we have lots of Catholics I am not sure that they generally collect cards - since so few people in the UK do collect cards at all

The numbering sounds a nightmare!!!

OK OK since writing the above I have actually followed Joanna's link and they do look nice and they are not overpricing it either ($10) although they are overpricing their international postage at $9, but there we go.

Until I saw that I had not realised how small MT was - because I have never thought of JP II (as he signs himself) as a particularly tall man!



So will they only be available direct through the site or will they be available from our local friendly dealers too (does anyone know?)

Yes it is a bit crazy!

But think of it as a set of photos - as thinking of it as a trading card set will make your brain explode...
