That was me. I was outbid on this card by Dave Pinner more than 10 years ago. It sure took a long time to get a 2nd crack at it. It was cheaper the 2nd time around.

I'd like to see what a really nice patch-if it's even out there,would go for.

If any of you guys wanna get rid of any Griffey inserts/GU'd contact me,I'd trade multiple GU'd/autos of other players in your favor.Looking to make the PC get alot larger.

Chris, the Skybox APEX is first I've seen. Did you have a hand in drafting this article?

2000 Skybox APEX
From BaseballCardPedia.com
Jump to: navigation, search
Description
2000 Skybox APEX was a proposed base-level brand from Fleer-Skybox that never got past the planning stages. Fleer had plans on unifying their three base-level Skybox-branded products (Circa Baseball, Thunder Football, and Z-Force Basketball) in a one: APEX. Only the Basketball product (1999-00 Skybox APEX) was ever released.
It wasn't until after Fleer-Skybox's 2005 bankruptcy that any evidence of the baseball version of APEX came to light in the form of 11" X 17" "Design/Press Direction Specification" sheets. It must be noted that ACTUAL SKYBOX APEX CARDS (to include promos and pre-production copies) have never emerged on the secondary market, and it is assumed were never printed.
So far, only four such sheets are known to exist.

Ken Griffey, Jr. base card
Sammy Sosa "Gone Squad" insert
Mark McGwire "Hit Machines Warp Tek" insert
Pedro Martinez "Pendemonium" autographed redemption.

The design of the "Hit Machines" insert was eventually recycled and included in 2000 Metal. Any assistance in identifying other 2000 Skybox APEX cards would be greatly appreciated.

I wonder why Chris considers the 96 Liberty Sports an unlicensed issue?

Thanks Rick. This is a really interesting post! I hadn't seen that article before.
[FONT=tahoma,sans-serif][/FONT]
[FONT=tahoma,sans-serif]The Apex one is an interesting story - similar to the post-bankruptcy release of Pinnacle Brands, I assume. What I have is actually an "xtra" parallel, and is numbered 100/100, presumably from the unreleased set. Now I am wondering what else might be out there.[/FONT]
