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.

Those do look a little garish to me. A lot of things happening on each card. Die cuts, color refraction, those shiny squares, sticker autographs. I need to lie down.

Imo. You should never consider grading when you design a product.

Make it appealing and let the grades fall wherr they may.


Oh, I am not big on grading. I was just speaking from the point of view that it's overdone. Creative die-cutting is cool! This is just cutting for the sake of saying it's done.

So all of the autos in this years product are die-cut? Are they also all sticker autos? I Forgive me for being out of the loop lol.

The blue sapphires look nice... but I take it that it's a "star rookie reprint" set, right? I get that Harper is big and all... but that card isn't near old enough to be reprinted. Jeeze.
