40 is like 30. You don't need to land flip tricks to enjoy skating. Plenty of concrete to roll around in.

I guess they're following from streetwear really makes a big difference



And these 3 artists to be at the bottom half where they actually have their own distinctive style and probably spend more time than BB, DonC and Oldman when creating their cards.
I’m coming for that #1 spot!!!!

Hoping one of the artists incorporates his strike zone, that was the main reason I included it.

Needs a vintage Red Sox logo and 'Topps' somewhere but I would definitely buy one of these. Nice work!

I'm still rattled by these Project 2020 posts all of a sudden.

If there were 10 people who said they're collecting 'All/full sets' & 29 people who said they're collecting 'only random ones', how are there 61 votes for collecting Trout?

The poll did require a lot of scrolling if you were to see all of the options...

Does anyone have a Taylor Griffey and Taylor Frank Thomas in hand?

Do they look nice in person or kind of flat?

not sure I get the question- you were able to select multiple options. “All/full sets” meant you’re collecting all 400 cards

Taylor's Jeter is the only card of his run I don't like in-hand so far.
It's dark and the design doesn't match up with the color palette aesthetically to me.

I might be in the minority here, but I really like his Thomas design.

Fanny pack was $200. How much was the red McGwire auto card?

Thanks!

I actually like his Jeter. Maybe I'll grab those last two I need.

Not much, methinks. Especially now that the bass card has reset back to MSRP.


The signed Jackies are probably worth significantly more. But damn...this ain't encouraging.

I'm glad it works for you - I am adding homeopathic remedies for ailments to the next Stefon meme.

Serious question - what are your thoughts on vaccines?

If this was directed for me, I was trying to understand what it meant that 29 people were collecting some player/artist sets but 61 were collecting Trout.
Does that mean a lot of the people who voted aren't collecting 20-card runs?

Sorry if this is unclear. I've forgotten how to speak since lockdowns began.

Sweet! You might be able to grab both for $50 total on the BST/FB.
Man I sound so hip & cool using those acronyms.

If the idea people had was fanny packs + P2020 = sky high BINS, there was some serious FOMO thinking going on there.

Buy to collect, why not. But an investment? There are easier things to flip.

These and the first wave of companions were all released at the pinnacle of p2020 euphoria. The Kool Aid was sweet...and potent.

Don't think there's much argument about their investment potential now in retrospect since the shipping took nearly 2 months. But I'm not the type of dude to back out and request a refund due to reverse POMO. Looks like I'mma have the entire male clan's midsection suited and zooted for Thanksgiving dinner.

I'm SoCal but not really New-Agey so I'm all for vaccines if they work. I have a lot of empathy for people in either physical or emotional pain (or both) and was just tryin' to help out earlier with the tur/cur advice (it really works) because chronic use of nsaids can destroy your kidneys.
