Those Victory purples are like freakin ghosts. I have the power up rainbow. Never even seen a Victory Purple. That's how often they don't pop up!

A few years back, I picked up a Purple Rafael Palmeiro on COMC that had been listed as a Blue. That was probably 2011 or so, and I've yet to own another one from any of my players.

I wish the Griffey side was the cool side! Lol

Been after one of these ticket cards for a long time.

I know some people might think they are kinda dumb but I really, really wanted one. Feels good to finally scratch it off my list

Interesting. I had a Carlos Delgado sitting around for years. Didn't really know what to make of it. Saw the really tough odds when I went to sell it, but figured there weren't many people out there interested and sold it for $10. Congrats on the super tough find!!

The Power Up Blues and the 2003 UD Victory Purples (and Reds) are easily a few of the least-respected impossible to find parallels from that era. Such a cruel thing for UD to do, put impossible to find cards in failed kids products!

Jeremy, Thanks for bringing up the 2003 Victory parallels. I didn't know there were 4 parallels. Just got the orange Thome for $1.55 shipped on Sportlots. Might be a while before I find the purple and red.

There's actually 5 parallels: Green, Orange, Blue, Purple, and Red. Green and Orange are easy, the Blue /650 can be hard, and the Purple ad Red might as well not exist. At least they only exist for the first 100 cards, makes the hunt much easier.

Same here.

Hey-oooooo!
Finally found the "Team" version of the '03 Team Heroes Master Set to go with my other. Now if I could just find those samples....

Wasn't sure I'd ever own this with all the Mattingly collectors/set builders...but this is the biggest card I've had to knock off my list:

Nice addition, it was a well done card.

Picked this up for $1 at a local record/CD/video game/comic book store, a place I occasionally find good cheap junk wax boxes:



This was an insert in this set:

The auto may be all smudged to hell, but still a super tough card, especially for $1!

Man this thread is just as fascinating as the 90's insert thread. I only have one contribution for now, but I don't see many of these around. This is the Canvas version.

 

[MansGame]

^^^Veryyyyyyy nice

 

[chippercards.com]

These Cramer's Canvas cards interest me too. Picked this Nomar up for $6.75 on COMC a couple months back. I could not resist!
