Product Designer: "How's the status of 2013 Bowman?"
Production assistant: "Well, sir, we know how you said people like die cut cards. This is what we're going with." *shows a card with standard die cutting*
Product Designer: "NEEDS. MORE. DIE. CUTS. MOOAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR" *grabs scissors and starts slaughtering the card*


Seriously.. corner grading didn't need this. That amount of die cutting is just uncalled for.

But they die cut the corners off...

These look great, its nice to know that none of these cards will be in any of the boxes/cases I would be opening.

The amount of sticker autos is appalling.

That's what I am catching. It's just an excuse for them to milk the Harper rookie image for one more product.

And most of us couldn't care less...in fact, I'd implore them to do it more (as long as I bought in to that product). Just added value.

Haven't seen a CL. Not sure what they're [URL=http://www.freedomcardboard.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=d]#d [/URL] to, either. Guess we'll find out next week.

According to the checklist on SCR, there are five of them - no indication what they are #d to though.

Hank Aaron - Braves
Matt Holliday - Rockies
Josh Hamilton - Rays
Bryce Harper - Nationals
Al Kaline - Tigers

I know that Josh Hamilton is a terrible person and has caused people to lose money on their pc investments and is probably responsible for snowstorms in May, but Holliday seems like the odd inclusion in that group.

A Chrome Blue Refractor Reprint Sticker Auto of a card that was a Paper Bowman Auto.

Why is that a bad thing?
Collectors would love to pull a Harper autograph, and so would flippers/investors who could sell it for a lot.
It's a win/win situation for everyone. Plus, it's a great looking card, and most collectors can't afford $450 for the original autographed rookie.

It's my opinion, guys. I just don't see the point in reprinting a card that's, what, 2 years old?

Because it'll sell well.

Blew the budget for the idea on the first 4?
