 Topic: Michael Jackson Top Trumps out now...Posted: 30 July 2009 at 18:17 |
|
I had a bit of a shock tonight as I was in my local HMV. Everywhere I looked they had literally hundreds of packets of the newest Winning Moves Top Trumps title - in it's black sparkly case. They were in a proper counter display box and everything.
I thought to myself surely if it's an official pack this website would have told us to look out for it. Hmm...then again maybe not ??
Anyhow it is a genuine Winning Moves product - Top Trumps Limited Editions - An Unofficial Guide to the Music of Michael Jackson to give it it's full title is out in the shops now now priced at £4.99.
The cards have different photos of MJ on them from the relevant era and stats relating to the chart performance of 30 of his biggest UK singles ranging from ABC in 1970 right up to You Rock My World from 2001.
It's a really nice pack to have and a pretty good tribute to the King of Pop. A percentage of the profits from this pack will be donated to charity too. Winning Moves must have been working overtime to get this pack out from scratch in just 4 weeks.

The HMV website say that it is not in stock but say it will be back in 21 days.
I'm guessing that there would be a scramble for it but surely try the high street first.

Tom has answered 3 MJ TT questions with the same answer. He only needed to answer one. Well, at least he is answering as many people as possible.
