No one likes to talk Vides so we fans just keep to ourselves. It's one of his best.

Yeah, it’s annoying that the focal point of his cards are the team names, and the pics can look a little shrunken. But, the colors are usually on point. The white in this is so intense.

I’m exhausted, and prone to hyperbole when I’m tired, but THIS IS AWESOME!!!! It’s as all in your face as the Oldmanalan Jackie Robinson, but it won’t carry the stigma of TBP saying that it looks like a Topps Archives card.

Apparently Plenty of Fish is big with Caucasian males, 35-49, in other words your average card collector.

Got my JK5 companion card #2 today. Not going to beat the dead horse with the box thing, but the card itself is really nice. Unlike the other companions, it's actually super thick like the Topps P2020 cards and is individually serial numbered, which is nice for a run as large as 555.

Man TBP has his own Shore Griffey!

The BO subset will be highly sought after in 2030.

Blake's Griffey is nice. I'm with you TBP NO BORDER!!!!

Grotesk, Siff, Jamieson, Chang and Don C--that's my master set

Robinson Player run

Wish I would have started Naturel and Saladeen as I think they might have the 2 best collections at the end

An assortment of other oddballs and randoms to fill the whole thing out

p2020 is one for the ages

Love this thing

If you don't get the purpose in grading these, then you must not get the purpose of grading in general. It's pretty obvious why people are having these graded.

Hmm...

I received another sticker set in the mail yesterday, (my 4th now), but I don’t have companion #1 or #2 yet.

The Grotesk Jackie Robinson is a sharp looking card. This one and the Ted Williams are my favorites of his so far.

Need one more OMA card and I’ve got an entire set... got the Mariano last night. Need the Koufax.

Getting autos back from him early next week?

That Jackie Grotesk looks cool! Feel like the George Brett, Jackie and Cal Ripken are going to be the best player sets.

Yes, my Lakers hate runs strong.

I just posted a Ermsy Ichro Auto/51($400) and a Shore McGwire($230) in the BST thread.

I will probably pick up one to keep the set of 5 going, but my interest in anything Kuzma is minimal. If he is going to just stick with the basketball theme going forward i wish he would go a different route in terms of players. He might already have a relationship with Kuzma and Tatum etc thou. Vince Carter or Barkley or another retired HOFer would be pretty sweet.

I have no interest in Kuzma. The companion series is also unrelated to 2020, but if he does a player I really like I might consider one. Though pricing for a player card will likely keep me away. I’m not in to parallels, refractors, etc. I’m boring and like base cards, and they aren’t cheap (I get why).

Both are pretty great cards, but I don't need either. -1 from the PRs today for those looking to scoop low PR cards ha ha. The grotesk Jackie fists are GREAT.

TBP I really enjoyed "your" show last night. I don't watch many youtubes but that was enjoyable and well done by all involved.
