As is usually the case with these types of variations, they usually exist in the BC cards. Since the BC cards were not in Factory Sets, that variation type is not in play.

However, it has become evident that the INC / INC. variant is in play. Two cards have already been conformed by members, and are noted in my active checklist below by the bold text. I will update it as others are verified. You may either reply here or send me a private message. Thanks for any help.

I have Ripken, Schmidt and Van Slyke confirmed in my collection.  Can they be added right away so I can keep my collection up-to-date as of right now?

I see that you already inserted the other 2 confirmed.  I will enter these 3.

All 3 are in.

I wanted to add them all at once, not 1 by 1, else I would've jsut leyt them all go through IRs. This was an attempt to handle this set in one shot. I guess it's a free for all now. 

The Gwynn was already there when I checked.  That is why I thought they were being added as they were being identified. Sorry.

They are also the rarer VAR just like in the Base set so finding 1 of all 26 may be a while before it happens.  I have several of some of the cards and don't have any without the dot.  Of all those I had, I had 2 Ripkens and 1 of the other 2. About the same odds as the base set.

You added the Gwynn on 1/15. I see you're handling the addition of each one individually. I guess I'l just kill the spreadsheet I had going and let you take this over. Thanks.

Updated several with visual verification from COMC's active listings.

I have inserted everything that has been put in bold.

Time for some others to step up to the plate and take a swing at these. (See what I did there?)
