Just a general question, not directed at the OP.
I've always thought that if you never will be able to get the big 4, then hasn't the monster defeated you before you even began?
I see people say that "completion" is 520/524 and they "defeated" the monster. I just don't see how that's a legitimate claim.
I don't collect T206 currently, but if I did, I would have to decide how to legitimately define a "mini monster" and defeat that. i.e. a Polar Bear back sub set, or a team set, or SL set, etc. Then I think you could say you legitimately defeated the mini monster.
As long as there are truly 524 cards in the set, and 99% of collectors will never be able to afford all 524, then 99% of us are beaten before we even begin.
