The sheer number of parallels some of these sets have makes my head hurt
99% of folks dont collect sets any more though. they chase the parallels. so its only collecting & chasing 30 cards of a player vs 700 cards of a set. way less space too. heck topps series 1, 2 + update is approaching 1000 cards, right? how many packs would that take? how many extras would you have trying to complete it? ill stick to only the player and his parallels that i want. 😉
these have only been out for 3 weeks, but when its all said and done this will prolly be the most parallels ill collect. absolutely love the amount of different variations available. the chase has revived and awoken the true collecting bug…
think there is 42 different versions with 3 different 1/1s. some duplicates pic’d below but 20 of’em crossed out so far. luckily, most of the /7s, /10s and /25s are already knocked out and are looking like the early bird stole the worms with what other examples are starting to fetch.

My only rainbow. My love of the ‘55 Bowman set made me collect this set. Need only two more to have all the /10s and have a handful of the 1/1s.

I don't think I can afford to finish this.
of course you can…and will! not a race and no timed finish line. 😉
I picked this up in a PSA 10 recently, but have yet to scan it...
