what a great idea to rip these packs. Enjoyed those cards from theses sets. So much different from what we have today. Thanks!

Hard to tell if I like some of the designs from the 90s out of pure nostalgia, or if some of the designs just genuinely were better. I think the looks of some of the 90s inserts are unrivaled by almost any of the designs today.

@@scoa That's why people will miss Panini products bitterly when fanatics has taken over. Even though the designs might not be better, but we got used to them. Have a great day

The hot packs for 94’95 were only available on top on the wax box so unfortunately the only way you knew it was a hot pack is that the pack was placed sideways on the top of the wax box when you opened it. I have 3 hot packs for this year when I bought a case I got 4 total hot packs I found out they were hot packs after opening the sideways placed pack and then when I proceeded to open the boxes I found the sequence to be they paced it up too and sideways.

Oh okay, very interesting. Thanks for the knowledge!

Your videos are awesome. And I love that you collect Nick Van Exel too. Actually I have a lot of doubles of his. Maybe we can make a trade or something if I have something you want

Glad you enjoy the videos! You also collect Nick Van Exel?! I've never met another Van Exel collector before! A trade of some sort sounds fun. What kinda cards of his do you have doubles of? I have most of the cheap stuff already and then a few more recent autos. I don't have a specific list of what I'm looking for at the moment. I don't have a lot of doubles of Van Exel though to trade back to you, do you collect anyone else?
