Got my mom to send me a picture. No laughing at the quality display case I built - I was only 15!

That's awesome. I see you have two Rodneys swinging in front of his card. Which cards/statues are you missing? Do you remember where you ordered/got them from? I took a closer look at the scan of my big Carew, and it appears that there is more image to the sides that was cropped out for the cards probably meaning it's not a blow-up of one of the issued cards.

I got this reply from a seller on ebay who has a several of the cards:
I purchased the complete inventory from Pacific Trading Cards when they sold to Donruss and I had hundreds of these. I have sold these for years on ebay. The SP symbol stands for Signature Preventures. He only has the blank-backed ones with the black border and sp logo. I'm venturing a guess that the original 8 without borders came first, then the normal cards, and then the blank backs (maybe after or around when Metallic Creations when under?) I got my lot of the 8 originals without borders yesterday. I'll maybe try to get them scanned. They are on photo paper with blank backs and rounded corners. All the artwork is from Payette except for the Gehrig.

I guess I need a Ryan and a Rose statue, if they exist, and a Rose, Cedeno, Brett, Clemente, and Munson card if they are out there. Anyone have any of these?
I never knew these as Metallic Creations - always as Signature Miniatures, which is on the (early) cards and engraved on the bottom of most of the figures. I think they were offered in the back of the Sporting News - if not we ordered them through the Sports Collectors Digest. Seems like the scarcity might be different for the card or the figure, and the scarcity of the card may depend on which type of card it is. I wouldn't have thought Koufax to be one of the scarce figures or cards as I think it was one of the first 14 or 16 issued, but it's been a few years!
