Well, as a few of you know, I started a new PC. One, that I've wanted to start for a while. Let me explain:
I've wanted to collect a player that had a lot of the 90's / early to mid '00's inserts and / or parallel's, but shied away, due to either folks on here collecting them or just the price to collect someone and fully collect them (as I'm apt to do) was just too great. Being a Minnesota resident for nearly all my life and following the Twins, I figured to collect Mr. Torii Hunter, as he always was such a fan fave here in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, he was always having a blast, smiling, joking, just looking like he truly enjoyed being out there, on the field, weather it was a 0-5, 3 K game or after hitting two homers and robbing a HR.
I enjoy challenges in collecting. Obviously, if you know me, and have seen my multiple player PC's, you know this. Collecting Hunter, in his Twins uniform only, should be a fairly fun and extended challenge, since there are so many parallel's of the DLP products of 2003, 2004 & 2005. Will it suck because some of this stuff is locked away in collections for eternity ? Absolutely. But hopefully one day, I'll own nearly every Torii Hunter card, in which he is pictured in his Twins uniform.
Here's what I've picked up so far:
1997 Bowman Chrome Interstate Refractor
1999 Pacific Invincible Opening Day #'d/69
2003 EX Essential Credentials Future #'d/64
2003 Fleer Mystique Shining Stars Patch #'d/50
2003 Topps Chrome Red Back Refractor Relic

2005 Leaf Limited Monikers Autograph #'d/25
2005 Prime Patches Bat #'d/150
2005 Topps Cracker Jack Mini Take Me Out to the Ballgame GU Bat
2005 UD Trilogy Autograph Bat / Jersey #'d/75
2007 Sweet Spot Dual Green Ink Autograph w/Joe Nathan #'d/10
Again, I'm serious about collecting him. I wouldn't have dropped as much $$$ as I have already on Torii Hunter stuff, if I wasn't. So, if you have anything with Torii's likeness on it, weather it be a bobble head, program, poster, trading card, etc, and he's pictured in his Minnesota Twins uniform, plmk
