Right now I am mainly working on my Kirby Puckett pc. I add to my Morneau pc when I see something nice(mostly refractors). I am also putting this years topps base set together.

I also forgot...

I am going to put together a 2011 Twins 60th Anniversary Parallel Twins Team set and display it somehow.

Just for fun, I am building the 2004 Bowman base set (I busted a jumbo box a couple months ago, and have a good start), and I am building this year's ToppsTown set, just because.

2003 Topps 205 and 2002 Topps 206 master sets, and Andy Pettitte.

 

[starwarsfan2003]

Nick Markakis PC - Hopefully get to 85% of all non 1/1 cards produced. Currently at about 70%.

2005 UD Artifacts - Autofacts Set - Was building it in 2005, was upset that I wasnt able to get some of the harder cards numbered to 25 or less, sold off everything, decided in 2010 that I loved the set, and started rebuilding it again. Need pretty much everything #/d 75 or less. At about 50% of set completion.

I have pretty much given up on the prospecting biz until next offseason and trying to focus on rebuilding my Brewers PC.

Got rid of just about all my cards to focus on memorabilia, plus we're moving, so less clutter.

Only things I'm trying to get:

05 Topps Chrome Update Zimm Rainbow in BGS 9 (need Red-X and Super).
It's my favorite Zimm card. I'll probably frame the 4 (minus the Super unless I can find it and happen to get a 9 :lol: ) once I find the Red-X.

and

06 or 07 Zimm SP Authentic BTL complete name. Just want something nice to display, and I've always loved these Lettermen sets.

2010 Bowman Sterling USA autographed Black Refractor Jersey /25 insert set. I have approximately 20 of the 30+ cards in the set.
I just picked up these two "big ones" this weekend:

 

[xcantgobackx]

Always looking to add to my:

1998 Yankees Autos (Have 25, looking for about 5-7 more)
Tony Gwynn Autos (Have 20 different)
Hall Of Famer Autos (Have 41 HOFers)

 

[muskiesfan]

Continuing to add to my 3 player collections; Pete Rose, Chris Sabo, and Adam Dunn.

I've also been working on the 1972 Topps set. Unfortunately, I don't focus on it much because I can always find PC things to go after.

Trying to hurry up and finish off the 2011 Topps Adam Dunn run. For his card, #271, I think I have picked up everything except the 1/1s. For #318, League Leaders card with Pujols and Votto, I need the Target retro, Topps Gold /2011, and Topps Black /60. I'm not too worried about those 1/1s because with Pujols, I'm sure I would never be able to touch them anyway. :lol: I also need to get one of the jumbo patches /20.

 

[chromerookies]

I'm working on:
a signed 1965 Topps Baseball set (by the end of this week I will be well over 400),
signed HOF Rookies
and
picking up Jose Canseco's + Vladimir Guerrero's here and there

[ideal0024]

My main focus right now is selling off 99% of what I have that I no long collect.

Joe Mauer cards #'ed 7/xx
MVP Auto "set"....an auto from every league MVP from 1975 to present.

 

[nosterbor]

since i am having a very hard time to find any Juan Gonzalez cards that i need, i started a few months ago on the 2008 Topps Moments and Milestones Aramis Ramirez cards.

i need just 5 whites
i have 43 blacks, 33 blues,and 24 reds. out of the 92 he has in that set. i know i will never get all the reds. what the hell it's fun!

 

[CraigsCards1]

Right now I'm really working on building up my Eddie Murray collection, especially oddball and junk wax stuff. It's a cheap, fun HOFer collection to build since he played pretty much exclusively in the junk wax era. My first thought was to go after Ripken stuff but he was in so many insert sets that it's a much more expensive collection to work on.

I'm also still adding Markakis cards but not pumping a lot of money into it.

I'm trying to complete the 2010 National Chicle set with all the SPs, as well as the chrome set that was inserted into 2010 Topps Chrome. Might jump to the relics and autos after that since they're so cheap.

I'm also passively working on the 2010 A&G set although I'm only barely over 50%. The one insert set I really want to complete out of A&G is the World's Greatest Wordsmiths minis but, again, it's kind of on the back burner for now.
