[Sly]

I always like Artifacts, but I'm not sure how I feel about the base cards this year. I think the Rookies look good, but not sure I like the foiling on the base cards.

 

[pghbuccos]

I agree Sly. I am hoping the foil doesn't really look like that. it looks Orange when I'm sure it should be Gold like the last few year's cards have been.

these look nice, my favorite of the 2010-11 so far

looks pretty decent looking as usual. Quite a few certain rookie redemptions will be super hot when this set comes out as well.
