That was one of my favorite sets from '98. I once had a full base set that I've since pieced away but I would always be down for cracking more of this stuff, so simple, no inserts and building the Preferred set was a really fun challenge...have fun with it!

Thanks, I need it; I still need both of Thomas' Preferred Prized.

No Crusades in these I believe, just Collections and Prized Collections that I know of.

That was one of my favorite products of the 90s also. SO underrated. Opened one box and hit one of the Preferred Prized Collection of Tony Gwynn. Wish I still had it.

So, the 1998 Donruss Collections rip was actually a solid break considering only 5 cards per 18 pack box, with just two boxes.

Odds are a Spectra-Tech Prized Collections in every 3 packs; expected 12, actual 16! 8 Donruss, 5 Leaf, 2 Elite, and 1 Preferred!

Odds of base Preferred are 1 in every 2; expected 18, received 18 (plus the 19th Prized Collections).

Some of the base Donruss cards were severely miscut, which I hadn't seen in this set before.

I pulled 3 Frank Thomas cards, 2 of which were Prized Collections...but neither was a Preferred :(. Still broke the odds there.

The hit was definitely the Schilling Preferred Prized Collections.

Yo! This sound right for 1998 Stadium Club...

Luminous - base laser cut insert

Luminescent - same as Luminous but refractor finish

Illuminator - same as Luminous but clear or see through
