I like the base design, except for the wavy thing that partially covers the team logo and player name.

The color parallels I don't care for at all, based on the pink example. I don't like how they wash out the background with color. The Independence Day parallel is just too much of an assault on the eyes.

I really don't like the wave, especially how it covers part of the first letter.
Besides the wave and logo, the two banners look too much like 1992 Fleer Ultra (a beautiful set, but too similar, even down to the small first name, and larger last name)

I ran across some blasters last night and grabbed three. At first I saw two rainbow foil. When I looked back through them I saw a gold. Nothing else really special. Tons of inserts.

Yeah, that waterslide has to go. I also immediately thought of the 1992 Ultra. I'm torn on the parallels, I like they are easy to distinguish but they are also visually difficult to process. Those patches will be difficult to distinguish between base and gold for the casual fan, so those could end up on eBay mismarked frequently.
