I think one of the new lenticular inserts from Elite this year probably deserves a spot.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on 2018 Kaboom Gold? Unlike in football, It was only released once in Basketball. CL is pretty good too with all the hobby heavyweights in it.

Long term hold?

Good work Chris!

My list would be very similar. I agree on the first 3. I would probably replace Atmosphere or En Fuego.

Atmosphere is new and pretty cool so I will keep that and replace En Fuego.

En Fuego has been done before so if we can go with a recycled insert I would rather have a Color Blast or Le Cinque Piu Belle.

Can’t go wrong with those two.

Re-looking at it, I might also throw Obsidian Mist in there. Hadn’t really seen it before but it’s growing on me.

I didn't even know those existed. They do look pretty cool although I wasn't a huge fan of the Vitreous insert from Obsidian. The die cut thick card just didn't do it for me.

2020-21 was an awful season for inserts besides Full Capacity. The Flux Titan parallels were nice but there's so many and aren't there two different versions for rookies?

It'll be interesting to see which 1st year inserts extend into the future years.

I would not neglect some of the Recon inserts.

I am also going to vote for Incoming and Influx, the designs are so good. Could see carving out a collection spanning all the flux inserts.

Three for the top rookies, two for middling, and one for Nesmith.

Both recon and flux were really refreshing releases. Some nice stuff, at a price point that wasn’t completely inaccessible.

I like the clean design of the 2019-20 Optic Star Gazing set. I had some extra time and some scrap wood so I tried to frame a Holo set I had collected over the past few years.



Not the most rare or popular sets, but it appeals to me. I'm not as high on the 20-21 design, but I'm curious what they will roll out for the 21-22 set.

That display looks incredible! I agree that 19-20 stargazing, and really most of 19-20 Optic inserts, is a beautiful set. 20-21 as a whole did seem to take a step back in terms of design.
