What is your favorite 90’s insert set

[snider4prez]

So I was able to pick up my all time favorite 90’s insert set. The 1994 SP Holoview. This was 1 per box and a 38 card set and for those who are not familiar this is a very star studded set which also includes a special Michael Jordan appearance. Now if you really want the chase the red die cuts are almost impossible to pull! So with names like Griffey and A Rod this was my all time fav! Just landed a red die cut Griffey which is on the.

Happy collecting!

Tough to answer if you were in the mix them collecting these cards and liked them. So many new and creative designs. Acetates, dufex, lenticulars, die cuts, foils, etc.

maybe it's parallel, not insert, but loved it anyway

insert: Pinnacle Team Pinnacles.


I guess I liked the pinnacle products

In 1996 I was 10 y.o. Topps Laser came out and I was blown away by that set. Love the set and inserts.

Ah yes the sunburst Pinnacle parallels. How about Donruss Elite. And man did some say Topps Laser yes please! Nice picks guys!

By the way it’s not really without photos!

Basically, anything with etched Dufex is tempting.

BOOM! I knew you where holding out Adam. And yes it’s been 14 years man! Love the “Starburst” Griffey, don’t have that one yet.

Finest refractors have to make top 5 right!

In 1991 during their 40 year celebration Topps purchased 3 full sets of their cards for every year and gave them away as individual insert cards or redemption cards, or individual sets or a full run of sets ( grand prize) by means of pack inserts of Instant Game Win Cards. The cards were numbered. Pretty sure 264 cards were possible. I have all but 3, which I think may have been big prize cards where only one was issued. Not sure. Still looking for those 3 to complete the "set"

In 1990 you could build a set of 22 Batting Leaders cards from Topps Blister packs. Those cards were pictured on top of middle row of the packs. I had to buy a lot of blister packs to finish the set

I really like the Topps Black Gold ( 44) and Gold ( 825/792) inserts from from 93 and 94. Both versions of the Black Gold checklists are tough, as discussed in another thread

A question for the group...maybe Dylan will know....in 1991 in addition to the Instant Win cards mentioned above there were also Match The Stats insert cards. I have a bunch but unsure how many comprise a "set". Anyone know ?
