Post by: Ron on June 21, 2006, 05:24:23 PM: I have two full sets of them - unopened. One day, I will open one box (36 packs in a box) and check them out. They were printed in 1993 via Star Cards. There are some famous names in it, including Mike Matarazzo, Lenda Murray, Lee Labrada, and many more... They look pretty good, but havent had the time to open them.

They have not made any others since then that I have seen...

Too bad they haven't gone up in value like you'd hoped, huh? Maybe you could get $2.49 for them on Ebay from some Ironager. ;D

Yup, Before all the Steroid in Baseball Bullshit, the mags were top shelf. But now... at first, I thought they were gone but they moved them all to the bottom shelf last row with all the gay mags.

Do those cards have "stats" in the back like real sports cards? If so, I bet it looks something like this:
