There were some that I never chased after because I am certain they were only available to specific regions. <br /><br />I also remember having 3 Cal Ripkens because I was always breaking his arm to make diving plays.

Even if they are subjects that have been touched on in the past, there are always new bloggers. For example, "how did you get into card collecting?"<br /><br />I'm sure it's been done, but I've never seen them. I just think the whole thing is a great idea.

There's a regular and a refractor version. There are three Koufax cards. He has a Brooklyn card, an LA card, plus I found an unnumbered version as well. There's also supposedly an unsigned version floating around of Koufax too.<br /><br />Kin - I really wish there were more Bat Around posts and topics. Kinda like I wish there were more Kenner SLU's out there to chase down.<br /><br />B Man - Thanks Brady!<br /><br />Zippy - Wow... both of those sets are pretty impressive. Any time you chase down a master set, you can consider it an accomplishment.<br /><br />Matthew - It's a awesome set. If you're looking for a bigger challenge, try to complete the 1989 SLU set. That's a toughie.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199201726099157936.post-30782345588870659302017-03-23T04:34:58.121-07:002017-03-23T04:34:58.121-07:00The Starting Lineup set would be a fun build.

One was the 2012 Sega Card Gen base set, another was the 2014 Topps Star Wars Rebels masterset.

And there are 1/1's. I have a nice Schmidt.
