The Rusty Klesla Collection

[Redwingsfan11]

Killing it as always on the Rusty! Its just cool to see such low numbered cards surfacing to this day.

Wow, an Arena Exclusives AND the HG Gold /5??

I still have never seen one of those Arena Exclusives for Vincent Lecavalier. Not that I do much looking, but still...

Congrats on the huge pickups!

Thank you. Given the info in the thread about arena exclusives I’m surprised I was able to pick one up.

That HG Gold is huge /5.

A non card update this time. I don't really collect Klesla outside of cards, however, had never seen and didn't know Rusty had a Starting Line Up figure. Debated on it for a week or so but decided it would be cool to own.

Not too much to close out 2025 with my Rusty collection, however, I was able to pick up a few things. Missed out on a Tall Boys gold /99 that bums me out but I did add another Crown Royale dual patch. Grabbed a bunch more show stamps too. I was able to snag two more autos that I did need for my collection.

00-01 SP Authentic and 00-01 Black Diamond BGS 9


01-02 BAP emerald /10, my second copy



00-01 Topps Heritage /1955, nine total copies & one on the way


08-09 Upper Deck S1 Signature Sensations auto


07-08 Upper Deck S2 auto


02-03 Pacific Crown Royale dual patch /403


The two graded cards were in a lot with one of the Heritage RCs thats really the only reason I have them. Still, as my old friend Eric would say, "A Fine Nine". Two copies of the dual patch on ebay but the sellers have them priced rather high. Thank you for looking.

Damn, I was so hoping you were the one that snagged the Tall Boys card.

 

[Modojr]

Yeah I thought I put in a pretty sizable bid that would secure it but I was really wrong

 

[creasecollector]

Nice new additions to end the year. All the best for the rest of 2026!

 

[BrownBullhead]

I have to say, that Klesla SLU figure was unknown to me as well!

 

[Modojr]

Opened up 2026 with a couple of new dual patch pickups:





I think I'm officially in "overpaying" mode for these and any other Rusty cards that I need. Not by much, but, still its a tad annoying. Starting off with two I'm taking as a good sign for the coming year in my quest to 100. Thank you for looking.

I miss Crown Royale dual patches.
