Looks like everyone has had a good April so far. Got some neat stuff for Easter yesterday. Besides what I am showing I also got a few Brandon Webb cards (which I should have taken a picture of), Greg Maddux, and Chipper Jones cards.

My first ever printing plate! I have always thought they were neat.

I love animals and my husband found this. Pretty cool

Autographed Sick Puppies CD

Autographed Buckcherry Record insert, I believe

My Easter basket, minus the cards. Other notables include blue cake mix, runner's world, and a big Scottish Flag!

We do holidays a little differently in our house

Loved that EX set!

2004 EX was awesome for football and baseball. Some really nice cards out of them

Agreed. I think '03 was really underrated as well. If I remember correctly '04 came out at a massive premium price point which put off some if the sets loyal collectors but the hits were sure pretty. 2001 was a little blah but 2002 was really the only total stinker otherwise EX was year in year out one of my favorite sets

[MENTION=3722]madbull34[/MENTION] - I LOVE the Iwakuma pickups and the Iwakuma/Felix dual patch You have some GREAT stuff when I looked at your collection. I have 3 of the 4 2012 Iwakuma colored autos with blue being the last one I need to get. Any idea of how "rare" the black/red/green ones might be?


I picked these up earlier in the month with the Foxx purchased at the end of March which didn't arrive until April:

2003 Leaf Limited Leather and Lace Jimmie Foxx GU glove and lace 10/10:

2012 Tier One Hisashi Iwakuma autographs /250, need the blue ink to finish the rainbow (green was purchased in March):

2014 Museum Collection Taijuan Walker dual patch/jersey autograph 51/299:

That Green ink auto is awesome!

Thanks for the compliments Alex! I picked up all 4 copies when the product first came out. I paid roughly the same amount for each copy so there wasn't a premium for a particular color back then. I think I saw the green/black inks listed more often than the blue/red ones if memory serves me right.

That Urlacher was nowhere near $75, right?

Not a big one, but the only Soriano I've seen since I started collecting this set two years ago (except for one on Beckett Marketplace where the seller wants like $200.) Only need 5 more cards to finish the entire 2006 and 2007 sets!

also picked up these 3, leaving me 2 cards shy of the entire 2013 Finest Masters Refractors set (20 cards in total):

 

[r2d2]

Luis Cruz Topps Mini Black /5 to finish the set


Marco Estrada Topps WBC Tribute Red /5 to finish his set

Guy on Blowout has the Cardinals version of this for sale. Right up your alley
