HAVE I EVEN POSTED SINCE JUNE? OK THAT'S ENOUGH OF A HIATUS. HERE'S SOME EXTRA CHAOTIC CHAOS
1993 SKYBOX MARVEL UNIVERSE DEADPOOL
CATEGORY - NON-SPORTS
I FEEL LIKE I SAY THIS EVERY TIME I POST A COMIC BOOK THEMED CARD BUT HERE WE GO AGAIN. I LOVE COMICS BUT I DO NOT MUCH CARE FOR MOST SUPERHEROES. I DO LOVE TRADING CARD SETS THOUGH AND I OFTEN WANT AT LEAST ONE CARD FROM ALL OF THEM. DEADPOOL IS A FUN CHARACTER AND HIS MOVIES ARE SUPER POPULAR AND THIS CARD LOOKED PRETTY COOL SO I NABBED IT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NO INTEREST IN COLLECTING THE SET. I DO HAVE A SLIGHT INTEREST IN MAYBE COLLECTING A PAGE FROM THE SET AS THE CARDS BLEED INTO EACH OTHER TO LOOK GREAT IN A BINDER
2021 DONRUSS ALBERT PUJOLS
CATEGORY - SUPERSTAR
THIS IS A VERY GOOD TIME TO PICK UP ALBERT PUJOLS CARDS BECAUSE PEOPLE REMEMBER HIS STINKY ANGELS YEARS BETTER THAN HIS MONSTER CARDINALS YEARS AND THE THE SLAM DUNK HALL VOTE IS STILL IN THE FUTURE. ALL THE DUDES WITH CRATES OF SLABS JUST WANT OHTANI ANYWAY. GET YOURSELF A NICE CHEAP DONRUSS CARD OF ALBERT WITH A RED UNIFORM SO YOU CAN TAKE OFF YOUR GLASSES AND SQUINT AND PRETEND THE LOS ANGELES ACTUALLY SAYS ST LOUIS. REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES!
2002 SP LEGENDARY CUTS PHIL NIEKRO, DALE MURPHY
CATEGORY - BRAVES
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE SETS I HAVE A WANTLIST FOR THAT I WILL NEVER EVER SERIOUSLY BOTHER COMPLETING. MAYBE IF I HIT POWERBALL AND FINISH UP THREE THOUSAND OTHER SETS FIRST. THE OLD TIMEY SEPIA TONES NEVER DID ANYTHING FOR ME, I LIKE THE SHINY FOILY UPPER DECK LEGENDS SETS MUCH MORE. BUT PHIL THOWING A KNUCKLER IN THOSE EARLY 80S BRAVES BLUE ROAD UNIS AND MURPH WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER ARE NOT CARDS I AM PASSING UP. DANG I WISH THOSE PHOTOS WERE IN COLOR THOUGH
2001 STUDIO NOMAR GARCIAPARRA
CATEGORY - WANTLIST?
THIS IS ANOTHER SET THAT AIN'T GETTING COMPLETED. I REALLY LOVE THE DESIGN WITH THE CAP LOGO BACKGROUNDS THOUGH, I NEED TO CREATE A COOL SET BINDER TO PUT STUFF LIKE THIS IN
1999 UPPER DECK CENTURY LEGENDS TY COBB CENTURY MEMORIES, LOU GEHRIG CENTURY MEMORIES
CATEGORY - WANTLIST
THESE CARDS SHOULD'VE GONE IN THE PREVIOUS WANTLIST POST BUT I FORGOT THEY WERE EVEN PART OF THE 1999 CENTURY LEGENDS SET LOL. THEY ONLY HAVE CENTURY PRINTED ON THEM TWICE AND NO BRONZE FOIL AT ALL! HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO TELL? THE LOU GEHRIG CARD IS PRETTY COOL BUT I PUT THESE CARDS AWAY ALREADY AND HAD TO LOOK UP THE CARD BACK ONLINE TO SEE WHAT TY DID ON SEPTEMBER 29TH, 1919. IT WAS ANOTHER BATTING TITLE, OF COURSE. DON'T LOOK UP WHAT HE DID ON THE 25TH OF THAT MONTH
1992 FPG CHRISTOS ACHILLEOS MS. AMERICA
CATEGORY - NON-SPORTS
OK, MAYBE I DO LIKE SUPERHEROES
1983 O-PEE-CHEE RON WASHINGTON
CATEGORY - O-PEE-CHEE
I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO BUILD ANY OF THESE O-PEE-CHEE SETS BUT I STILL LIKE THE CARDS. I LOVE WASH AND AM KINDA BUMMED THAT HE FINALLY GOT THE MANAGER JOB HE RICHLY DESERVED AND IT'S WITH THE ABYSMAL ANGELS. THEY'VE GOT A WORSE RECORD THAN THE A'S! HOW??
1988 TOPPS ALF SERIES TWO STICKER
CATEGORY - NON-SPORTS, STICKER
HE'S BASICALLY A MEME NOW BUT ALF REALLY WAS RIDICULOUSLY POPULAR IN THE LATE 80S. MY FAMILY WATCHED THE SHOW EVERY WEEK AND MY MOM EVEN HAD AN ALF PLUSH DOLL. I BOUGHT A FEW PACKS OF THESE CARDS WHEN I WAS A KID BECAUSE I LIKED THE SHOW BUT I DIDN'T LIKE IT ENOUGH TO NOT TRASH THE CARDS. I MUST'VE ONLY GOTTEN SERIES ONE PACKS THOUGH AS I DON'T REMEMBER THE BLACK STICKERS, ONLY THE BLUE ONES. THOSE ARE ALL LOOOONG GONE THOUGH
2011 QYPSY GUEEN ANDRUW JONES HOME RUN HEROES
CATEGORY - BRAVES
I HAVE NO EARTHLY IDEA WHERE THE HELL MY 2011 QYPSY GUEEN SET IS AND IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS. I THINK I HAD IT IN A BINDER AND THEN EVICTED THE CARDS SO I COULD USE THE PAGES FOR SOMETHING ELSE AND NOW THEY ARE ALL VANISHED. BY VANISHED I MEAN 'PROBABLY IN A BOX NO MORE THAN TEN FEET FROM ME' BUT IF YOU COULD SEE ALL THESE BOXES THAT MIGHT AS WELL MEAN THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN. THIS SUXKS AS IT IS NOT ONLY THE ONLY GQ SET I REALLY CARE ABOUT BUT I ALSO HAD A PACK PULLED CHRIS SALE AUTOGRAPH CARD IN THAT BINDER AND I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW WHERE THE HECK THAT THING IS
1995 TOPPS VAMPIRELLA
CATEGORY - NON-SPORTS, MONSTERS
I KEEP TELLING MYSELF I AM NOT COLLECTING THIS SET AND I'M JUST GOING TO BUY ONE VAMPIRELLA CARD AND THEN I KEEP PICKING THEM UP. THIS IS A MORE TRADITIONAL POSE FOR VAMPY AND HAS ALREADY BEEN PLACED SNUGLY INTO THE MONSTER CARD BINDER
2023 BOWMAN AARON JUDGE
CATEGORY - SUPERSTAR
I DON'T REALLY LIKE AARON JUDGE - OR BOWMAN FOR THAT MATTER - BUT IF HE'S GOING TO INSIST ON HITTING FIFTY DINGERS EVERY COUPLE YEARS I'M GOING TO CONTINUE PICKING UP HIS CARDS WHEN I FIND THEM CHEAP
2016 TOPPS DAVID ORTIZ PERSPECTIVES
CATEGORY - INSERT
I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT I FRIGGIN LOVE THESE INSERTS. SOMETHING ABOUT FLOATING TEXT WHERE TEXT SHOULD NOT BE HITS ME IN JUST THE RIGHT WAY. THE TEXT IS GOLD TOO, SO THIS IS AN HONORARY SHINY CARD. IT'S TOO BAD THE '16 BASE SET LOOKED SO TERRIBLE, I MIGHT'VE PULLED MORE OF THESE CARDS OUT OF PACKS OTHERWISE
1997-98 POST JAROMIR JAGR
WHEN I SEE AN ODDBALL FOOD ISSUE I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW EXISTED I GRAB ONE FOR POSTERITY. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE SET CONTAINED SEVERAL PLAYERS I ACTUALLY COLLECT AND I SNAPPED THEM UP TOO. I DON'T MIND A FEW RANDOM JAGRS IN MY COLLECTION THO. THIS DESIGN IS WILD, EVERY CARD LOOKS HORRIBLY OFF CENTER EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE NOT. PINNACLE PUT OUT A BUNCH OF TOP QUALITY HOCKEY SETS RIGHT BEFORE THE COMPANY BLEW UP, I MISS THEM TERRIBLY
MY BRAIN ISN'T OVERHEATING ANYMORE SO MAYBE WE'LL GET BACK ON A REASONABLE POSTING SCHEDULE NOW

Lots of goodies here. Hard to pick a favorite... but I'd go with either ALF or Deadpool.
Nice grab pack post of odds and ends.
I had the ALF with the suction cups so you could stuck them on your car window. He may still be in a box somewhere
