Got any Puckett runs finished lately?

New arrival - the 2003 Donruss Team Heroes Stat Line /11. Normally the Stat Line series was limited to the base Donruss issue, but for some reason they included one in this set. But they didn't do the usual Career and Season Stat Line versions, just one Stat Line. This one is numbered to 11, for the number of HR that homeboy hit in 2002.

Nothing that finished any runs. The 1/1's have exploded. I still pick up cards though. The new stuff has slowed down both in terms of how much they release and how much I chase

Greetings from a galaxy far far away.

I just completed a pretty difficult run, the Topps Kanebo series. In case you didn't know these were released in Japan in 2003 in two series. The first series was designed like 2002 Topps, and came with silver and black parallels. Silver is tough, black is really tough. The second series was designed like 2003 Topps and came with a bronze parallel, which is tough. I just got the series 1 black from COMC...

Holy crap !! Found a Black- those things are like ghosts - Great feeling to complete that one I bet !!

Still haven't found my Clemens sadly

Yah. I'd never seen one until recently, when two appeared on ebay. Gouger #1 wants $1000, and Gouger #2 wanted $600 (although that listing disappeared). This one on COMC cost me $135, which I think is high but not outrageous, considering the scarcity and the fact that they were only distributed in Japan.
