Just had bad news from the States. My girlfriend's Ma & Pa have just been to the Rockefeller Center and apparently they're all out - none left!

Guess they'll be proper rare cards then...

Does anyone know whether this card actually exists. The Stars Wars booster pack was on US e-bay within hours of release. I've kept my eye on US e-bay and never seen one yet. Every contact I've had with the Rockefeller center seems to come up blank. I'm asking Joff for an image to show it exists.

My parents are off to NY in May next year. Bet they can't get one then. Did encourage them to go earlier but when I explained my reason for the suggestion they thought I was weird.

Just e-mailed him this:

Hi Joff

Just wondering if there was any chance of an image of this STT. The Star Wars booster pack was on e-bay within hours of the LA convention but after scouring US e-bay for a good month or so  I have still never seen one. People I’ve e-mailed at Top of the Rock have been very perplexed by my requests.

Furthermore, my parents are visiting NY next May. I asked them to go earlier but they thought I was weird when I explained why! Any chance of them picking one up next year.

Thanks for all your recent updates on US STTs.

Cheers. Nick

and got this

I am out of office returning Monday 25th June.

For product development queries please email Nik Battersby at NikBattersby@winningmoves.co.uk.

For all other assistance please email Ana Pak at Ana.Pak@winningmoves.co.uk.

I will be checking my emails infrequently and shall reply to your email on my return.

Joff

If I get anything from him, I'll let you know

Are you saying your not weird?

I don't know if the Promo will still be running then, but its worth a try.

As for Joff being out of office, he could be going to the UK to see the UK WM people, as I know Tamar did last month

I've done a bit more digging and delving on this. It appears you only get a card if you specifically ask for one from the gift shop at Top of the Rock. I've received two e-mails from a Kevin Talbot. These are as follows:

Nick,

Thank you for your interest in Top of the Rock Observation Deck and the new Top Trumps Rockefeller Center card.  We do not currently offer a mail order service, so if you would like a copy of the new Rockefeller Center card, please visit the Top Trumps website at www.toptrumps.com/usa.asp or if you find yourself in New York City, visit our Top of the Rock Gift Shop on the concourse level of 30 Rockefeller Plaza.

Best regards,

Kevin Talbot
Customer Care Representative
Top of the Rock Observation Deck

and

The promotion will run until supplies run out. The cards are free for those who ask for them at our retail shop. I do not, however, have a copy of the image. For the cards image, please direct your inquiries to the Top Trumps website.

So anyone going there make sure they go to the gift shop on the concourse of level 30 and get one for me please. Hope this is helpful

I think I might need to get down on my knees and grovel at Joffs feet for the card via email

I think I've found a contact in NY who will be willing to go to the Rockefeller centre. Nothing concrete obviously but through my connection, I've asked them to get as many as possible. Hopefully something will come of it and I'll keep badgering my connection so here's hoping anyway.

Me thinks me will send Joff letter now.

Maybe ask for a scan, as I've seen none on Ebay.

Persevere mate. From my conversation with Haplo I think he said he had to asked for them from the gift shop four times before they parted with them.
