@SpitballinCards I do also, even using the silly photo. I also thought print runs being similar to the original was a good idea, it didn't need to be a SP. And I like the 5 variations, playing off the original. Topps acknowledging something another company put out is also a good move. Fleer and donruss were huge in pushing topps to do better.

1. The short prints aren't even close to being short printed. No way I'll pay $50 for Chourio's card, but I might be in for $30-35 down the road. 2. The Chourio image is from the first week of the season, so they obviously they could have made better SSP images for Ohtani and Yamamoto. 3. I just wish they made HFA's in chrome too like football downtowns in Donruss and Optic. Would be a much better chase than Ultraviolet All-Stars.

Can't believe nobody mentioned Hells Bells as the Entrace Song of Trevor Hoffman. I think that is the best ever. I read somewhere that the Yankees took the idea of Enter Sandman for Rivera from when they played the Padres in the 98 Series. Diaz current entrance song is probably the current best. As someone mentioned below, Wild Thing and Rickie Vaughn a definite honarable mention.

Hey guys, love your channel. I'm not an investment-type collector, I typically only collect Indians/Guardians cards for my rather voluminous PC, but I'm glad you brought up the mistake on the Gunnar Second Year Rookie Card. I've always wondered if the 2023 Allen & Ginter non-mini cards of Steven Kwan were a mistake (they also have the RC logo). I thought it was weird to have the RC logo on both 2022 and 2023 A&G, so now I know it was a mistake. I of course bought the 2023 A&G's because of this logo so they got me. Regarding the signature tunes inserts, as a big music fan, I also love this idea. The Kyle Tucker and Travis Scott one is pretty cool. As a Guardians fan, I would love to see an Emmanuel Clase and Lil Wayne one for the song "Fireman", which is Clase's walk-out song. At any rate, great material, love listening to you guys.

KZbin couldn’t help me out here, but Paul O’Neill used to walk up to the opening of “Baba O’Riley” by the Who during the Yankees heyday in the 90s. I have a vivid memory of watching a tight playoff game in the late 90s - think it was against Cleveland, but I could be mistaken - where you could literally feel the stadium shaking through your TV screen as O’Neill got ready in the on-deck circle and made his way to the batters box while that song played. Chills. I wish I could bottle up that feeling for posterity. Every 6 months or so, I type in searches on KZbin to see if anyone captured that moment, kept it, and uploaded it. No luck so far.

Sorry, late to the party, but excellent video. You guys bring up so many great points on Series 2. I usually just buy singles of Series 1 & 2 and open Update. In Update you at least have all the Debuts of all the good rookies. I put that set together along with buying the Factory Set from Topps. I really like the Home Field Advantage Inserts. They are one of my favorite baseball inserts and I like the fact that they are still affortable and the set can be put together at a reasonable price. If you want rare, the Legendary Home Field Advantage cards are really tough to pull as well as getting the HFA cards in a 10. They are condition sensitive because of the foil. For example, there has been about 500 Trout HFAs graded at PSA and only 46 10s. I think the Gem Rate on these all is probably in that 10-15% range. I was not aware of the Hidden Gem inserts, but those cards look really cool and what a great idea to put those in multiple sets. Until next time.....
