Oh Super Sweet 90's Inserts.... #3

[George_Calfas]

how much for the Juan Gonzalez red

Only Duplicates are FS, sorry.

Nice crusade duplicates! Are you going for sets of all colors and if so, how far along are you on each?

Green and Purple have been done since 2001......Reds are a pipe dream but I am well over 50%. I collected extra Cardinals for Team Affiliation :mrgreen:

You guys see this? I'm not sure if this is good value but I dont have the cash anyways lol. He is not a card guy but rather a Peter Max collector. Its the only Belle I've ever seen and he won't break it up.

I figured I'd add to the SPX drama...

Compared to other SPX's, I believe these are the Steel versions. Anyone interested? I need the Bagwell version if anyone has one out there...

oh yeah, $2.25 steal (diffractor)

Diffractor? Wait, theres diff versions of these Teks too? Then this one I got last week is a Diffractor and not just that pattern? Oh yeah, I see it now. The Background behind the player is clearly different than all the other Tek cards.

Yep, that "stained glass window" effect is a Diffractor parallel. Very hard to track them down. Now you have 180 cards to find for your player collection instead of just 90 :shock:

LOL! Yea getting all the diffractor's is a pipe dream! Although, I think someone on here has like 70+ or something of their guy... very impressive!

I also picked up a Diffractor this week, but not on purpose. I paid 75 cents for this card on Beckett and was pleasantly surprised to find that the seller had failed to list it as a Diffractor. The best part -- it's the Pattern 11, so it matches Larkin's jersey number.

Some other additions from the last couple weeks:

Nice pickups! Fun story on the Diffractor. Back in 98 I was relieved that Rusty wasn't in the set. But now I'm bummed. A fun chase...

Couple tiny pick-ups yesterday

First a classic

And a shimmering silver Salmon

Just when you think you only have a set number of cards to track down, someone blows your mind and doubles it with a shimmery gloss coating!

I love being a Player Collector. I truly do.

Picture reminds me of when I found out Belle was going to start showing up in 2011 sets after being dormat since 2001. ::facepalm::

 

[ASTROBURN]

Yeah, I'm just waiting for them to start doing more of those "Greats" style sets and start pumping out more cards of our players.

 

[RustyGreerFan]

Another benefit to Rusty Greer... or detriment. He's not considered a great until they do a fan favorite subset.
