Team cards are another must. <br /><br />I ended up building the 2010 base set of Topps and while it didn't wow me, it was still fun since I'm new to set building. 2011 looks much much better though and I'm anxiously awaiting it's release.flywheelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404740580161509052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285811746102453183.post-6878770297649213922011-01-10T13:55:03.048-05:002011-01-10T13:55:03.048-05:00Agreed on the insert sets, some were interesting l...Agreed on the insert sets, some were interesting like Tales of the Games, but the World Series set was pretty much done already in the 2001 Topps and with the Ring of Honor Insert set from two years ago.
