This is the first set I tried to complete by buying packs. I chose Score because it was the cheapest. Every time I had $1.06 I would walk down to the gas station and buy a pack. If I had extra money I would get the big pack that had the Impact Players inserts. Rating: 9 | ||
My favorite baseball card set, very colorful and different, clean design and crisp pictures. I'm a fan of the Score sets but I feel that this one is far ahead from the before and after sets. Rating: 10 | ||
I like the appearance of the cards, a clean design with good pictures of the player. The set is a bit too big for those year, about 100 cards too many. Rating: 8 | ||
