    Encore - High Definition Set Completion!

    Not many parallels back then, insert sets were very unique and to some degree the checklist matched the set theme too. Inserts wise there hasn;t really been a ny great new ideas that Panini has come up with in the modern era - some of the manga inspired stuff perhaps and the booklets, but that...

    How NOT to finish a set chase - Part 2

    That's what I like about the older pre Panini era, more innovation and less replication. Tim Duncan block s incoming to finish it off. Blocks and dunks seem hardest to track down and seem to go for a premium.

    How NOT to finish off small set chases

    How NOT to finish off small set chases

    Sure is mate, just wish they all had such nice photos. The old looking rounded CRT screens and that early digital font in the top right all add to the era and gimmick, kids these days don't know that TVs weren't always flat screens!
