Weetbix Dan Carter Gold Card
In 2021 it was Jonah Lomu and in 2022 Richie McCaw who were the players selected for the limited edition Gold Card, this year, 2023, Dan Carter has the honour. The gold cards are highly prized and sell for a premium on Trademe so if you strike one in your Weetbix's box you are definitely one of the lucky ones with only 5000 gold cards available throughout New Zealand.
The Dan Carter Gold Weetbix card is gold coloured both front and back. Statistics are highlighted in red rather than blue as on the regular and legend cards.
Weetbix Regular and Legends Cards
The artwork on the front of the 2023 cards is predominantly grey with a matt rather than a glossy finish. Blue and red are used as accent colours. Regular cards are light grey while legend cards are marked "Legend" and are dark grey.
The back of the cards is all blue with white lettering. Stat Attack appears in large letters at the centre of the card and both the logos of the Black Ferns and the All Blacks are positioned at the bottom. If you are in any doubt about the year you can always refer to the back of the card which has 2023 just below the Official Game Card slogan which is highlighted in red.
These Weetbix cards continue the size format that has been adopted in the last couple of years measuring 63mm x 100mm.
On the front of the card you will find a full body action shot of the player carrying a rugby ball alongside key statistics like age, height, test caps, test points, year of debut and success rate itemised in grey and blue in a list to the left.
The number of each card in the series is highlighted in red on the front of the card and is located in the lower right-hand corner just above the logo - All Blacks (cards 1 to 17) and Black Ferns (cards 18 to 34). The name of the player is placed diagonally in the bottom third of the card offset from the left.
