METAL UNIVERSE IS SO AWESOME IT GETS THE TOP SPOT TWO POSTS IN A ROW! WE CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THIS ONE AS WELL
1997 METAL UNIVERSE VINNY CASTILLA
CATEGORY - WANTLIST
VINNY'S CARD HAS A FLAT BACKGROUND SO YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING ON HIS CARD IN A PHOTO! AND MAN, IS THIS A GOOD ONE. A BIG SCARY DRAGON IS TRYINGTO ROAST AND EAT VINNY BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S GOT HIMSELF INTO. VINNY IS TOO POWERFUL, HE'S THE GUY WHO PUSHED CHIPPER JONES INTO LEFT FIELD AFTER ALL. THAT BASEBALL IS GOING TO CLONK THAT DRAGON'S NOGGIN AND VINNY'LL HAVE A NEW SET OF LUGGAGE
THE CLUNKY FUTURISTIC BACKGROUNDS ON THESE THINGS MAKE ME SO HAPPY. IT'S LIKE VAPORWAVE AND STEAMPUNK HAD A WEIRD LITTLE BABY
2020 DONRUSS SAM HILLIARD RATED ROOKIE
CATEGORY - BRAVES
SAM HILLIARD WAS A BENCH OUTFIELDER FOR THE BRAVES IN 2023 AND HE HAD A STRETCH FOR ABOUT A WEEK WHERE HE PLAYED LIKE WILLIE MAYS. HE HAS ALREADY BEEN WAIVED AND PICKED UP BY THE ORIOLES AS FORREST WALL BEAT HIM OUT FOR THE SCRAPPY 6TH OUTFIELDER SPOT ON THE ROSTER BUT I FELT A NEED TO PICK UP A RATED ROOKIE TO COMMEMORATE THAT TWO HOME RUN GAME IN APRIL
1992-93 STADIUM CLUB DOMINIQUE WILKINS
CATEGORY - HAWKS
ONE THING I REALLY NEED TO DO IS RAID ALL THE OLDER SETS I WILL NEVER BUILD FOR PLAYER COLLECTION CARDS. I FEEL LIKE I HAVE THIS CARD ALREADY - IT JUST SEEMS TOO RECOGNIZABLE - BUT IT WASN'T IN MY 'NIQUE BINDER SO IT ENDED UP IN MY CART
1992-93 SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD BE A GOOD SET TO BUILD, BUT THANKS TO TOPPS BEING OUT OF THE BASKETBALL GAME FOR OVER A DECADE WE GET A BUNCH OF ROOKIE CARDS LIKE THIS ON THE BACK. THE FIFTY POINT CLUB CARD, EH. NOT EVEN HIS 1992-93 BASE CARD, THE 50 POINT CLUUB CARD IS IS ROOKIE CARD. WHATEVER YOU SAY TOPPS
1996 UPPER DECK RYAN KLESKO DIAMOND DESTINY
CATEGORY - BRAVES
THESE CARD CONFUSED ME FOR A WHILE, AT FIRST I THOUGHT THEY WERE INSERTS, THEN I GOT THE IDEA THAT THEY WERE PART OF A BOX SET, AND EVENTUALLY I FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE AN INSERT, JUST IN SPECIALLY MARKED PACKS. WHATEVER THEY ARE THEY LOOK REALLY COOL WITH THE PORTRAIT INSIDE AN ACETATE WINDOW AND I LIKE PICKING THEM UP WHEN I FIND THEM. I HAVE NO IDEA WHICH ONES I HAVE BUT I WOULDN'T MIND IF I HAD KLESKO ALREADY
2022 TOPPS BRYCE HARPER STARS OF MLB
CATEGORY - INSERT
GOOD OL' BRUCE HOOPER. I LOVE FINDING THIS DUDE FOR CHEAPS. THIS METEOR SHOWER DESIGN IS PRETTY SLICK LOOKING AS WELL, IT'S REALLY GROWN ON ME. IT LOOKS LIKE THESE STARS OF MLB CARDS WILL BE COMING BACK IN 2024, I HOPE IT GOES BACK TO THIS KIND OF CELESTIAL DESIGN
2022 CORNERSTONE MARCELL OZUNA
CATEGORY - BRAVES
YET MORE UNNECESSARY CORNERSTONE CARDS, THIS TIME WE'RE BACK TO THE BASE DESIGN WITH THE STRIPEY HOLOFOIL. BUT WAIT! BLUE FOIL PARALLEL! THIS IS A REALLY GOOFY SET BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IF THERE WAS A ZENITH LOGO INSTEAD OF THAT STAINED GLASS LOOKING THING THAT IS DEFINITELY NOT A CORNERSTONE I'D BE LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS SET
1990 UPPER DECK REGGIE JACKSON BASEBALL HEROES HEADER CARD
CATEGORY - INSERT
HERE'S ANOTHER HEROES HEADER CARD, I THINK THIS ONE COMPLETED MY REGGIE JACKSON SET. THE ACTUAL CARD SET WAS FINISHED FOR A WHILE BUT I WASN'T CERTAIN I HAD THE HEADER. I BUY DUPLICATES OF REGGIE CARDS ALL THE TIME ANYWAY SO NO BIGGIE EITHER WAY
AND BE SURE TO CHASE AFTER THOSE SIGNED CARDS WITH A SPECIAL HOLOGRAM KIDS! I WONDER HOW MANY BOXES OF 1990 UPPER DECK WERE OPENED SOLELY AS A REGGIE AUTOGRAPH LOTTERY TICKET. I BET IT'S A LOT AND I THINK I GOT MOST OF THE DISCARDED BASE CARDS FROM THOSE BOXES
MY FAVORITE PART OF THIS CARD IS THAT LITTLE ICON NEXT TO THE HOLOGRAM. IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS CARD NUMBER 0. IT ALSO SORT OF LOOKS LIKE A LONDON UNDERGROUND STOP
2022 TOPPS FREDDIE FREEMAN STARS OF MLB
CATEGORY - INSERT
FREDERICK! IF FREDDIE'S IN A BRAVES UNI THEN IT'S ALL RIGHT WITH ME. I THINK I'VE BOUGHT THIS CARD THREE TIMES THOUGH AND NOT JUST ON THE SITE
2023 TOPPS AUSTIN RILEY
CATEGORY - BRAVES
ANOTHER CARD I'VE BOUGHT MULTIPLES OF. NO WORRIES, ONE FOR THE SET, ONE FOR THE TEAM BINDER. MY BRAVES TEAM SET COLLECTION IS GOING THROUGH SOME CHANGES LATELY AS I'VE RAIDED SOME TEAM SETS TO KNOCK CARDS OFF MY MAIN SET WANTLISTS. I THINK I NEED TO DO THE REVERSE FOR MORE RECENT SETS THOUGH. I REALLY JUST NEED TO SUCK IT UP AND BUY A COMPLETE TEAM SET AT MY LCS IN 2024
2020 BOWMAN MIKE SOROKA
CATEGORY - BRAVES
WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CARD MIKE SOROKA WAS DESPERATELY TRYING TO MAKE IT BACK FROM HIS MYRIAD INJURIES AND GET BACK TO THE BRAVES ROTATION. IT DIDN'T GO TOO WELL AND NOW HE'S ON THE WHITE SOX. I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER 2019
2022 TOPPS JOSE RAMIREZ STARS OF MLB
CATEGORY - INSERT
IT'S WEIRD HOW I START COLLECTING CARDS OF CERTAIN PLAYERS. I KNEW JOSE RAMIREZ WAS A LEGIT GREAT PLAYER FOR A WHILE BUT DIDN'T THINK ABOUT HIM MUCH. THEN HE KNOCKED TIM ANDERSON'S LIGHTS OUT AND NOW I KEEP PICKING UP HIS CARDS. I SHOULDN'T REWARD VIOLENCE LIKE THIS BUT JOSE'S AWESOME LOL
UP NEXT: I HAVEN'T UPLOADED THE PHOTOS YET SOOO I DON'T REALLY KNOW? IT'S GOOD THOUGH, I DON'T BUY CRAPPY CARDS
STOP TYPING THAT COMMENT
