Default One Card away from a really great set!

Not sure how many have completed this set. I've taken my time and waited for good prices on most. There are a few in limbo at COMC not pictured. The ONE card actually missing is Tim Duncan #272!

Anyway, figured I'd show it since it's 99% complete and not one you see every day.

Sweet. Really liked this product when it came out. Those Sketch Cards are pretty sweet. Hope you complete it soon.

Thanks guys - I rarely post pictures, so sorry for quality. It's 2016-17 Studio Sketches 201-300. I have 1-200 as well, but those are easy to come by.

I'm big into slowly building sets - keeps my mind busy and pocket under control and can move from project to project. I just hate it because this will always inevitably happen and be down to one!

I opened a ton of this stuff when it was cheap and readily available. That stopped around last summer, but I pulled the Ben Simmons and it made the goal realistic without dropping too much money on it.

2016-17 Studio was a very underrated product and one of my favorites. You have these sketches, From Downtown and Rock Solid.


BTW somebody on here has to have the Duncan!

16/17 Studio was a nice clean set. I bet you’re the only one with the Sketch set completed. Killer!

100% it was such a good release. Great inserts. Clean base cards.

Sorry for the poor picture; I LOVE studio and made sure to grab all the Spurs sketch cards when it came out. Agree that From Downtown and Rock Solid look amazing as well, although that "From Downtown" Ben Simmons has not aged well



Not sure why the link is broken on the forum, but it works on imgur

Also Defying Gravity. Very affordable and super nice looking. I got the whole set for like $40.

Pretty impressive accomplishment to acquire every Sketch card but one (for now).

Yeah I love the defying gravity set as well. Very undervalued IMO!

Completed this a while ago and figured I’d bump. Love this set. Thinking about selling it soon. Anyone else have it complete or aware of any other complete sets?

This is a very eye appealing and underrated set. I own a couple but never seen one completed other than yours.

No idea. As someone who pulled the Simmons and LeBron and was thinking about doing the set, I don't think there are many full sets out there. Only about 240 copies per card, maybe there are like 10 full sets of this.

Congrats on completing this! I have a few of these and like them!

You are probably better off selling them individually.

Not many set collectors now a days.

Thanks all! Not selling imminently. Just moving on to other sets and projects - just how I operate. Still really fun to look at and sift through. I figure someone may appreciate it more than me sometime down the line.
