Two years earlier, significantly lower production, much closer IMO to a mainstream set than a gimmicky set with a weird name. Many RCs besides Jordan including Olajuwon, Barkley, Stockton, Isaiah. Beckett got hung up and called them XRCs because they weren't issued randomly in packs but I think the market finally doesn't care.
