Hmmm...interesting debate...to me...they are 2 very very different sets. The t206 has many many qualities that make it appealing to many...there are so many ways to collect it...not so with t205.
T206 backs are very appealing in their bold statements...whereas t205 backs have never had any real appeal to me...and the brands are secondary to the bios/stats...which I DO like!!!! I can't really compare the images...they're like apples to oranges...the t206's can be cartoony...fuzzy...somewhat non-descript at times...whereas the t205's are a window into many players souls! Some poses are dogs...in both sets...so to me this is a non-issue! So to me...T206 is infinitely more collectible...but T205 images are 2nd to none in their close...detail...look at the eyes...in many cases they look 3D...and it's not due to registration issues!!!! |

That is exactly the attraction for me, but to each their own.

There are a lot of great T206 poses. I like both T205 and T206. Personally, I think the T205s are better looking cards but I know many others like t206s better. Kind of like chocolate and vanilla. There isn't really a winner and loser. They are both winners!! How can you not think this is a good looking card? (shown many, many times but is a pretty card, imo.....)

The 205 Cobb and Matty are probably among the most iconic and beautiful images in the hobby

I'll agree with you on the Matty, but no way on the Cobb. Matty looks like Matty. Not so much on the Cobb.

I finally decided to read this thread and glad I did. Great work t206collector.... hilarious!
My opinion: I love the t205 national league version and can pretty much tolarate the AL version. However, even though I'm a set collector at heart, I doubt I will ever go for the t205 set because I like some variety in the poses and uniformity in the design of a set. That being said, I'd much more likely be interested in the entire set if they were all NL head shot style. The negatives about the t205 SET imo is the three distinctly different styles within one set. The positives: the NL design, and the bio + stats on the back. Put my tick mark next to t206's with a high honorable mention to t205 NL. |
